Vermont's Democrats
Campaign on Issue Of
Federal Cooperation
Republican Governor
Hos Cut OF Federal
Money, They Assert
By ROBERT E. BEAUPRE,
Special Correspondent OF The Star

BURLINGTON, VT, Oct. S.
Charging that partisanship has been
responsible for Republican Gov.
George D. Aiken's past unwillingness
to cooperate in New Deal proposals
for Vermont benefits, Democrats
have fired the first heavy salvo in
their campaign. They have estab-
lished main entertainments in Burl-
ington, the first time in years Yer
mont's largest city has been chosen
as State Democratic headquarters.
A powerful bid will be made for the
late Senator Gibson's seat in Con-
gress.

Senator, told the Democratic State
Convention, of which he is chairman,
in Montpelier last week: Il probably
would not be in this fight . were
it not for the appalling unwilling
ness of my opponent-the Governor
Of this State-to cooperate with the
Federal Government. He has tried
to block the Government in its at
tempt to give flood control to our
people and deprived the State OF
advantages of the flow of Federal
money within its borders"
He pledged that if elected he would
mot blindly and partisanly oppose"
anything he thought redounded to
the benefit of Vermont
Gov. Aiken was unable to attend
the Vermont G. o. p convention In
Montpelier, October l, because he Is
recovering from an operation in a
Burlington hospital, but reports from
the gathering assured him of the
party's solid support. Vermont Re
publicans sounded the call for an
intensive campaign to maintain po-
litical traditions in the face OF an
anticipated Democratic drive boil
stored by record-breaking measure
of national party backing.
Patriotic organizations are seeking
public hearing on the validity Of
Communist party petitions, recently
filed with 1887 names in the Secre-
tary of States ONCE. Many sigma
lures have been challenged. The
point State authorities are asked to
determine is whether all men and
women who signed were aware they
have affixed their names to Com

newspapers have published all the

Moves Bring Hope
To oRepub|icans Again
WiIIkie and Murtin Work
To Bury the Hotehet
Between LocoI Forces
BY CHARLES G. MILLER,

HARRISBURG, Pa, Oct. 5.-Re-
publican politicians were more op-
timistic today about the success Of
Wendell Willkie and their State
ticket at the election Just . month
from today than they have been for
several weeks.
In the last two days Mr.. Willkie
has visited the two populous centers
of Observation-Disclosures and
Philadelphia-and has appeared be-
fore large crowds at the Capitol
here and made rear-platform
speeches at other places. Today was
the last day for registering for the
election, and Republican leaders as
sert they have kept their promise
to extend their party's enrolment to
5000 900, a new high.
The presidential candidate made
good impression as he passed
through, particularly upon county
leaders, many of whom fought his
nomination at Philadelphia. Scars
Of battle had not disappeared among
the delegates themselves even at the
beginning OF this week.
Diplomacy Brought into Play.
Mr.. Willkie himself and Joseph w.
Martin. jr., national chairman, are
credited with having ended the bad
feeling that existed between the
State administration forces, which
backed Gov. Arthur H. James for
the presidential nomination. and
some of the county leaders. The
Governor has not recognized some
Of the county chairmen who two
years ago supported his opponent,
former Gov. Clifford Pinchot, and
others have received scant State
patronage.
One who has received nothing Is
County Chairman Frank J. Harris,
Pittsburgh, original Willkie booster
in the Pennsylvania convention del
egation. When State Chairman
James F. Torrance announced that
the Governor would introduce Mr..
Willkie at Pittsburgh, Mr.. Harris
objected strenuously.
The county chairman got in touch
at once with National Chairman
Martin, who had visited this State
only two weeks ago and knew of the
local situation, and as a result Mr..
Martin announced that the vice
presidential candidate, Senator Nc
Nary, had found it possible to join
Mr.. Willkie at Pittsburgh and for
the first time both candidates would
appear on the same platform. 1t
was also announced that the Sem
ator would introduce the presiden-
tial nominee The Governor said
he was delighted to hear of this
plan, and, to show he was for party
harmony, led large delegation from
here to meet the Pennsylvania
bound Willkie special train at
Youngstown, Ohio.
Registration High Possible.
II the Republicans have increased
their enrolment to 5000 900 and the
Democrats have maintained their
2.o00,000 State registration for the
first time has exceeded 100000.
The State Elections Bureau has just
asked the county commissioners to
forward as soon as possible the new
registration figures, but it will be
some time before these are compiled.
The recent Elections Bureau to-
tails showed 2,563,322 Republicans,
2.036.523 Democrats and a smatter-
ing of minor party followers, with
few thousand more registered as
non -partisans. In the past 536 per
cent of those qualified to vote in the
State have been men and 464 per
cent women.

SANTA FE, N. Mex, Oct. S.
Wendell Willkie has come and gone.
So has Henry Wallace. And the
situation apparently remains un-
changed in New Mexico. Demo-
cratic leaders are sure President
Roosevelt will carry the State; Re-
publicans contend Mr.. Willkie has
a chance.
Both candidates spoke in Albu-
querque. The Willkie crowd was by
far the greater, an estimated
20 ,0O0-not bad for a State Of far
flung borders and with but little
more than 100000 population.
Mr.. Willkie got by without re-
peating ALI Landon's faux pas. New
Mexico is bi-lingual-better than
40 per cent Of the population is
Spanish-speaking. The latter folk
are proud of their ancestry. To call
them Mexican" is q fighting word.
They can trace their names back
for centuries IN New Mexico history.

Of No Alarm to Foes
BY ROBERT E. WILLIAMS,


RALEIGH, N. c.. Oct. 5.-This
presidential campaign continues to
be one of the most apathetic North
Carolina has ever witnessed. Re-
publicans have hoDed to induce
Wendell L. Willkie to enter the
State. but so far have not been able
to announce any engagement for
him. To date, the Republican cam
paign has been conducted almost
entirely by one man, Robert H. Nc
Neill, Washington attorney WHO
maintains his legal residence in this
State and is his party's candidate
for Governor. Mr.. McNeill has not
succeeded in alarming the Demo-
Gratis. who have confined their own
efforts largely to district rallies at
which the principal speakers have
been j. M. Broughton, Democratic
for Governor and the rep
for the district.

Foreign Situation Aids
Delaware Democrats
And Worries COP.
Republicans Feel,
However, Normal
Voting Habits Will Return
By c. E. GRAY.
pecial Correspondent Of The star

WILMINGTON, Del. Oct. S.
Cheering news from the West in the
wake of Wendell WILKES tour has
heartened Republican leaders here.
However, it has not dampened the
spirits of Democratic chiefs, who
contest the claims Of their op-
ponents that there has been a trend
toward Mr.. Willkie.
1t is true there was at first more
than a little feeling in the State
against a third term. AS the cam
paign gained momentum and the
war situation became so alarming
there was a change, however, in
ank-and-file sentiment. Men and
women began to say that maybe
the Help Britain stand for which
President Roosevelt was condemned
early in the campaign was not so
wrong after all. The attitude taken
by various war veterans organiza-
.tions also had its effect.
It was evident there was q decided
drift toward President Roosevelt's S
foreign policies. Republicans have
had many q headache trying to
find way to stop 1t before 1t be-
comes irresistible.
Delaware in years past was not so
strongly unionized as 1t is now and
working men outside the white COL
lar class credit the Democratic
administration with bringing about
todays conditions. Democratic
speakers have not missed q chance
to hammer this argument home.
Despite this fact managers of the
Republican campaign feel en-
couraged They know the voters
have been listening to and reading
the Willkie speeches. Delaware is
normally Republican and 1t would
take big turnover to put the State
in the Democratic column. Even II
the voters were lukewarm toward Mr..
Willkie, it is admitted by independent
observers that the Republican State
ticket, headed by Senator Townsend
and Representative Williams will be
great help in bringing about
Republican victory.

Tangled Washington
Situation Means Many
Tickets Will Be SpIit
Democrats Import Flynn,
Republicans Try to Get
Dewey for Visit
BY JAMES De X. BROWN,
Special Correspondent Of The Star.

Special Correspondent OF The Star.
SEATTLE, Oct. 5.-After having
been permitted to slump the Repub-
lican campaign now is taking on a
new activity with every indication Of
high gear during the next two weeks.
At the same time the Democratic
leaders, following q careful survey.
are also beginning to work, indica-
tive of a feeling that this State is
not as solid in the Democratic COL
umn as they had anticipated.
For the first time in several presi-
Dental campaigns. neither party IS
preaching a slogan Of Vote 'Er
Straight" There are too many local
issues in various congressional and
State legislative districts, with can
didates on both tickets taking part,
50 a much scratched and split ticket
will be voted in November.
The numerous Democratic Will
kie for President Clubs" are sup
porting the Republican nominee for
President, but a majority Of the
members are refusing to slide of
their own ticket any further. This
means that, where Mr.. Willkie draws
these votes, the congressional and
State tickets on the Democratic side
will also get them.
Again, the two State tickets are
split. Hundreds of Roosevelt fol-
lowers are going to scratch the DEM
ocratic congressional and senatorial
tickets, and then swing back to the
State ticket. 1t is a most unusual
situation.
The Democrats have brought Ma
tional Committee Chairman Flynn
here to smooth some Of the rough
spots, but it is doubtful his visit will
aid to any large extent. The Re-
publicans are also trying to get
Thomas E. Dewey of New York out
here This State favors Mr.. Dewey,
and if sent he will draw as large
crowds as did Mr.. Willkie on his re-
cent visit.

Presidential Choice -
A Tossup, With Most
Ewes on Senate Race
Formers Have Not Liked
Some New Deal Matters,
But A. A. A. Checks Count
BY KENNETH W. SIMONS,

Special correspondent OF Inc 6C6I.
BISMARCK, N. OAK, Oct. S.
North Dakota has had plenty Of
political tangles to unravel, but never
before one like that presented in
1910.
The race between Wendell Willkie
and President Roosevelt appears to
be a tossup, with no widespread
enthusiasm for either man. The
last time Mr.. Roosevelt came to Bis
marck the crowds assembled and
looked at him. There was very lit
tie applause. But they supported
him at the election.
When Mr.. Willkie came through
here on his Western tour the same
thing happened. They were more
curious than excited. Mr.. Willkie,
as a candidate, drew as large groups
as did Mr.. Roosevelt as President.
Farmers here-and North Dakota
Is more rural than any other State
In the Union-have not liked some
things about the Roosevelt admins
tration, but the A. A. A. checks are
being placed in the mails now and
these are expected to make a dif-
ference.
Real Contest for Senate.
The real prize package is the SEN
atorial contest, where William
Lemke resigned as candidate for
Congress, after winning in the pri-
mary, to campaign as an indepen-
dent. He Is opposing William Lam
ger, who is to North Dakota poll
tics about what Jim Ferguson was
to Texas and Huey Long was to
Louisiana. Mr.. LANCER won the Re-
publican senatorial nomination in
three-way fight, with Lynn J. Fra
zier, a veteran Senator, running
second. Now active in the LANCER
campaign is Thomas Whelan, third
candidate in the primary election.
Since the primary vote in June Mr..
Whelan has become Republican
State chairman with Mr.. Langer's
backing, although Mr.. Whelan pre-
sumably is a conservative and Mr.
LANCER is radical.
Third candidate for the Senate
Is Charles j. Vogel, Democrat, but
he is not conceded any chance of
victory. 1t is strictly contest be-
tween Mr.. Lemke and Mr.. LANCER,
with the latter conceded slight
edge because he is running on the
Republican ticket
Gov. John Moses, Democrat,
seems likely to be reelected. He
was put in two years ago by coali-
ton opposed to the so-called LANCER
political machine and has given
generally satisfactory administra-
ton. The impetus of 1888 plus his
good record and personal popu-
larity, seem likely to carry him
through.
Little Talk Of Politics.
Among the people generally there
Is not much political talk. None
Of the parties or political groups
has much organization. Personali-
ties. rather than parties, are domi-
nant.
The Democrats have no organi-
sation to speak OF and never have
had, even though this State gave
President Roosevelt huge majorities
In 1882 and again in 1886. There
are, however, some -for-Gov-
ernor clubs, Of which half the men,
bers are Republicans on most other
issues.
The Willkie Clubs organized with
q bang but have since been quiet.
II they are doing anything they
have not told the public about it.
