The Greek ships were reported to

The most spectacular victory for

Both Sides Claim
Victory in Calf.
On Election Eve
80 Per Cent of Vote
Will Be Cast, Predict
Political Observers
BY JOHN w. DUNLAP

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov.
4. (UP)-The prospects of
rain in California tomorrow
failed to dampen the enthus-
iasm of political campaigners today
as both Republican and Democratic
headquarters claimed to see the
silver lining of victory through the
clouds.
Democrats predicted President
Roosevelt would carry California
by 100000 votes.
Republicans forecast 100000 vote
margin for Wendell l.. Willkie.
Somewhere between those claims
lies the actual outcome and because
California, as in 1916, probably will
play vital role in one of the
closest elections in history, close
to 80 per cent Of the vote will be
turned out. rain or no rain.
On the basis of the states regis
tration of 1852 ,395-of which the
Democrats have nearly 10000
more than the Repuhlicans-some
3,500,000 ballots may be cast tomor-
row.
Both parties have ardently wooed
the usually inarticulate labor vote
as probably welding the balance
of power in the state. The wooing
has resulted in three-way split
in the ranks of the Congress OF
Industrial Organizations, one fac
tion riding with Willkie on the en-
dorsement of President John l..
Lewis; another definitely committed
to Mr.. Roosevelt and a third fac
tlon on the fence, endorsing neither.
And while Harry Bridges, Cali
fornia CIO director and head of the
powerful Longshoremens union, fig
uratlvely straddled the fence by
refusing endorsement to neither
presidential candidate. he made no
bones Of his personal feelings by
launching spirited attack on the
president last Friday night.
The presidential race showed
state contests into the background
Since Sen. Hiram johnson faced
only minor party opposition for re-
election; less than half the states
congressman had major opponents;
only five Of the 20 state senate con-
tests were important, and only 25
OF the 80 assembly seats were at
stake, the Republican party ap-
peared certain of again dominat-
ing both legislative houses.
Glenn Whitaker, campaign man.
ager for the Willkie- McNary forces,
averred:
"WeIl carry California for Will
kie by 100000 majority"
He predicted Alameda county and
the Redwood empire would offset
the admitted Democratic strength
IN Los Angeles county, with a close
battle in Sacramento San Francis
co and Fresno. Seven of the ten
southern California counties will
give Willkie a comfortable major
ity," Whitaker forecast.
Weekend highlights of the cam
palgn included a speech by Sen.
Charles McNary. Republican vice
presidential nominee, in Sacrament
to. and an appeal by Gov. Culbert
Olson for reelection of President
Roosevelt.
