through 244 air raids before leaving
London, Mr.. Kennedy said the

many millions of Americans. This
great body of suspicion and appre-

exceedingly difficult not only for
him, but for the whole country. His

ton of Mr.. Roosevelt for a third
term injects a new factor into our
political life. 1t weakens the two

than ever in history, the United

is open for one-party rule.

The majority has chosen Franklin

New York Times (Willkie)-Frank-
lin D. Roosevelt has been reelected
President of the United States, and
it is the first duty of every American
to pledge him support in the critical
days that lie ahead. The appeal to
the electorate is over. The choice
is made. We must close our ranks
in the face of the danger that
threatens this country from abroad.
We disagree with the decision
but we glory in the fact that
ours is still system of government
in which the will of the majority
prevails, and the minority gives un-
grudging support to the majority in
the achievement of every truly ma
tional purpose.
New York Herald Tribune IRE
publican) The country is still enor-
mously wealthy. From the economic
point of view, it can probably with
stand four more years of New Deal
obstruction and destruction. But
can the independence of the voters
survive four more years Of
paternalistic direction and handouts
from Washington? We say with all
solemnity that the Nation needs
Wendell Willkie today more than
ever.
Baltimore Sun (Willkie) - The
American people have spoken and
the American people will abide by
the will of the majority in good
spirit and in loyal effort . While
Mr.. Roosevelt has won an impressive
majority in the electoral college, his
popular majority in the pivotal
States is by no means of CORE
spending size.
Los Angeles Times Republican,
However legitimate or otherwise may
have been some of its component
points, an emphatic majority verdict
has been returned in Mr.. Roosevelt's S
favor, and its acceptance with good
grace is the part of all who sub
scribe to the democratic principle
of majority rule.
Boston Herald Republican)-For
the first time in our history, the
electorate has disregarded the ira
dition against the third term. Many
Americans will regret the outcome
deeply and be disturbed at the pos
sible direct and indirect conSe-
quences. But it was the people
themselves who broke the tradition,
and they did so in fair, open elec-
ton, where nobody acted under
duress.
Boston Globe (Non- -Partisan)-
The phenomenal breaker of political
precedents has again performed the
miracle, this time shattering the
third term tradition to roll to victory
in new triumph. The turnout at
the polls yesterday was tremendous.
AS referendum on the popular will,
this exhibition has revealed the dig
nifty and the power of American
democracy to itself and to the world.
Boston Post Qndependent-Demo-
crat)-The mighty vote that was
rolled up all over the Nation is one
of the most heartening things that
could happen to US. 1t shows that
democracy is an alive, vigorous
thing. 1t shows the world, especial

government and have the faith and
will to govern themselves.

NEW YORK, Nov. 6-Pivotal New
York State pumped its Al electoral
college votes-largest single bloc in
the Nation-into the Franklin D.
Roosevelt column today after what
started as a nip-and race
ended in a New Deal runaway.
The Presidents home State. most
bitterly contested territory in the
campaign, gave him a plurality of
approximately 5000 over its
adopted son, Indiana-born Wendell
Willkie.
Nearly 400 1000 of this State S
Roosevelt votes were cast by the
American Labor Party. The party
thus claimed that it furnished the
margin by which the President car
ried the State The A. L. P, which
formally nominated Mr.. Roosevelt
as its presidential candidate. cast
378,3l3 votes for him, according to
complete returns in New York City
and from II of the States 81
counties.
The New Deal sweep carried Sem
stor Mead back into Office for full
six-year term as successor to the
late Senator Copeland, and inter-
rupted the brief political career Of
Bruce Barton, New York advertising
executive, who relinquished a seat
in the House to oppose him.
Short of 1886 Lead.
While convincing, the Roosevelt
lead was far short of the 1,1l2,55
pile-up which the President scored
over Alf M. Landon in the 1886
landslide.
With all but rs of the States g.
3l9 districts tabulated, the vote
stood:
Roosevelt. 3,256, ,726.
Willkie, 3,021,42l.
Mr.. Willkie held a substantial
lead in the traditionally Republican
upstate sector. but. like Mr.. Landon
in 1886 and Mr.. Hoover in 1882. he
was swamped by the Democratic
outpour in New York City, which
gave Mr.. Roosevelt a TOO 900 vote
advantage.
Simpson Wins House Seat.
Mr.. Barton'S place in the House
was won by Kenneth F. Simpson
former Republican national COM
mitteeman, whose opposition to the
presidential aspirations of District
Attorney Thomas E. Dewey dis
rupted the State G. o. P.'s pre-
convention harmony.
The Empire States lineup in
Congress remained unchanged, with
25 Democrats and 20 Republicans
those going back including Repre-
sentative ODay, Democratic in
cumbent.
G. o. P. Increases Legislature
Support.
Republicans were assured of in
creased control Of New York's Legis-
lature for two more years as final
election returns gave the party three
more seats in the Senate and two
in the Assembly.
The G. o. P. apparently took &c

Both parties swapped seats in nearly

Republicans came out with two ad-
ditional Representatives, giving them
