the line for President Roosevelt, they

the line for President Roosevelt, they
say.
The Farmer Laborites recently
undertook to bludgeon the Demo-
Gratis into a deal. They announced
they would file Farmer-Labor slate
of Roosevelt Wallace presidential
electors.
Such a move, if carried out, would
hand the States electoral votes to
Mr.. Willkie on platter. For under
the law, it is not possible to add the
votes cast for one group of Roose-
welt electors to those cast in another
group.
Immediately the fur began to fly.
The Ryan-Kelm Democrats an
nounced they did not intend to be
"blackmailed" into any proposal to
help the Farmer-Laborites. They
would not, they said, withdraw their
party candidates to favor the Farm
er-Labor candidates, nor would they
have any tacit understanding with
the Farmer-Labor leaders.
Farmer Labor Move a "Dud."
The upshot Of the matter is that
the Farmer aborites appear to
have backed down, and John S.
Findlan, Farmer Labor State chair
man, has called a meeting of his
committee for today to reconsider
the plan to call a party convention
to select presidential electors. Mr..
Findlan declared last night that, so
far as he was concerned. there had
been no intention of forcing a deal
with the Democrats; that he had
not known the selection Of a sep
arate slate of electors would divide
the Roosevelt vote, and that the real
purpose was to prevent the election
of four of the Democratic electors
who might vote for Willkie."
I'VE had information" said Mr..
Finldan, that four of the Demo-
cratic electors might refuse to vote
for President Roosevelt, If elected"
He said, too, that the Farmer-Labor
people had believed it would
strengthen their ticket in the State
to include presidential electors.
Whatever the reason-and it is
generally believed that the threat
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1940-10-01

to place a separate Roosevelt slate
Of electors in the field was to force
Democratic support Of the Farmer
Labor candidates for office by the
Democrats-the maneuver seems to
have been a dud, and to have in
jured principally the Farmer-La-
bOriteS.
The fact of the matter is that
many Of the Farmer-Labor group
will vote for President Roosevelt,
whether any deal is made CT not.
That will certainly be advanced by
the Democrats now in control as a
reason for not participating in an
agreement to support the Farmer
Labor candidates for Governor and
Senator.
Stassen is Confident.
The Democrats here realize that
they have a real job carrying the
State for Mr.. Roosevelt. Some Of
them frankly say they believe today
that 1t is a horse race-a $3.50 bet.
Republican leaders, on the other
hand, speak with confidence of car
rying the State for Mr.. Willkie.

the Governor appears quite certain
that Minnesota will wind up in the
Republican column in the national
election.

, fish pilots were "novices" sent
fer more for training than for
4eavy bombing.
Il The raids were said to have been
directed against populous industrial
Western Germany and the Berlin
suburbs, where several persons were
reported injured by heavy bomb
which exploded near three apart
ment buildings.
The alarm kept Berlin's residents
In shelter five hours and eight
minutes. Little damage was said to
have resulted from the raids into
Germany.
The British "novices" were describ-
ed as carrying mostly flares and
incendiary leaflets and small num-
Der of explosives, but a larger than
usual supply of gasoline to make
their return to home bases safer"
At dawn Berlin authorities said
they had found evidence of only
one bomb explosion in the city
proper. This missile blasted out a
crater in q street and smashed In
the walls of apartment houses on
both sides of the thoroughfare, out
no one was reported injured.
Observers saw no fires in any part
of the city during or after the raid.
The British flyers met a steady
barrage of anti-aircraft fire which
authorities said blocked their entry
to the city at several points and
compelled them to stay at a great
height, which prevented any aimed
bombing"
Raiders crossed and recrossed the
capital. but except for one period,
when planes we're heard several
times. there was no great amount OF
artillery fire in the city. Defense
guns Numbered briefly at long in

ever, intend to ask him to be active
for their national ticket, and active
in a big way. 1t remains to be seen
what he ill do.
In the past the New Dealers in
Washington have been able to per-
suade the Minnesota Democrats to
trade their support OF State candi-
dates for the support by the Farmer
LaboriteS of President Roosevelt, or
of other New Deal candidates. The
Minnesota Democrats in 1896 with
drew their senatorial and guberna-
torial candidates at the eleventh
hour to support the candidates of
the Farmer-Labor party. to purchase
support of Mr.. Roosevelt by the
Farmer-Labor people.
The situation confronted by the
New Dealers today is very different.
In the first place the Joe" Wolf
and Joe" Moonan factiops-which
fought each other .viciously in the
past, and which both gave their
support to the New Dealers-lost out
this year when a new Democratic
faction headed by Representative
Elmer Ryan took control of the
State Central Committee. This new
faction succeeded in nominating
Edward Murphy of st. Paul for
Governor, and put Elmer Kelm in as
State chairman.
Opposed to Any Deal"
The new Democratic setup is vio-
lently opposed to making any deal
with the Farmer-Labor party. In
deed, its leaders seem to be as
anxious to put the skids under the
Farmer-Laborites as are the Repub-
licans. They talk today of bringing
the State back to a two party sys-
tenn with the Democratic and Re-
publican parties only on the political
map. They are, however, going down
