Political commentators made the air ring with explanations of the election Tuesday night and into wee hours of Wednesday morning as re- turns compiled by the Associated Press were broadcast throughout the nation revealing that once again Franklin Roosevelt had been elected to the presidency, shatter- ing old third term bugaboo and ex- pressing confidence of the Ameri- can people in his administration and the American way of life.
 They had many answers to why the President swept through to an- other easy victory, all of them doubtless contributory. But to mil lions sitting around their radios listening to Mr Roosevelt roll up state after state there was one fairly obvious reason why he had been reelected with an avalanche of votes. It was the policy he and his administration had set and fol- lowed conscientiOusly for this na- tion in a world torn with war. Ma jority of the American people had believed Franklin Roosevelt when he addressed the Democratic con- vention last July and said he would not have considered accepting tl,e presidency again had not the inter national situation become what it was. Proof of their belief in that assertion and confidence in the pol icy of this nation at the present time is revealed in huge majority

BROOKLYN, May o. up Fat
Freddy Fitzsimmons pitched the
Brooklyn Dodgers to a 8 to 1 victory
over the Pittsburgh Pirates today
and into a tie with Cincinnati for
the National league lead.
After giving up a run in the first
inning the bulky pitcher-coach, who
hasn't been beaten in three starts
this season, was invincible and held
the pitiful Pirates to six hits.
Pittsburgh's run came on an in.
field out after two singles and a
walk had loaded the bases.
Brooklyn lost no time tying the
score, Cookie Lavagetto singing,
stealing second and racing home on
another single by Dolph Camilli in
the first.
Bob Klinger matched Fitzsimmons'
hurting then until the fifth, when
trouble showered on the Pirates.
Peewee Reese singled and stole
second. John Hudson struck out,
but Arky Vaughan fumbled Fitz-
simmons grounder, putting Reese
on third and the pitcher on first.
