Waterbury Citizens Turn Out In Amazing Numbers To Defeat COP
Democrat Chairman Tangney Has Taken His Place
 Among Correct FOrecasters- City 18 Sweep By Democrats

An amazingly large turnout of voters in yesterdays election gave Democratic candidates the largest popular votes in the city's history, analysis of the figures showed to- day. From President Roosevelt down, the Democratic nominees swept the city by record-breaking total votes though the margin of victory was not as great as in the 1886 presidential contest because of a great gain in the Republican vote. The sweep sent into office for the Democrats, two state senators, two state representatives and judge of probate, and insured the election of a Democratic congressman from the fifth district even before figures from other towns had been received.
 Tan.ney Predicted It.
 Democratic Town Chairman Maurice F. Tangney and other leaders hailed the outcome as a vindication of President Roosevelt and his program. MT. Tangney, directing the party through an elec- lion for the first time, was being credited with great political acu- men when the figures showed that his prediction of Democratic vic- tory in the city by $500 was close to the actual margin.
 President Roosevelt carried the city by 8,980 votes, but ran behind vorne of the local candidates. Con-

GREECE, ITALY
 LOCKED IN FIGHT
Germany, Britain Clashed in Big-Scale Sea, Air
 Conflicts
BY JOE ALEX MORRIS United Press Foreign News Edit0r)

Greek and Italian armies were reported locked in a tremendous battle today as Great Britain and Germany clashed in big-scale sea and air operations.
 A conflict of great importance is raging in Greece, the Italian off cial radio reported, asserting that FosciSt troops are advancing on both northern and southern fronts after bitter fighting in which many Greek prisoners were taken.
 The Fascist version of the war conflicted with reports of further Greek advances, especially along the road to Koritza, big Italian base in Alabama. An Italian fortified line guarding the Koritza road was re- ported smashed by Greek mountain troops, which surged forward to seize a new line of hills on the northern front.
 The Greeks had been reporting successful progress since they smashed the initial Fascist drive toward Florina (which was heavily bombed by Italian planes again to- day) and Saloniko on the north wing. The Greek mountain troops sliced into Albania at the extreme northwestern corner of Greece (where Greece, Albania and Jugo- slavia meet) and had advanced almost to Koritza after crossing the Devoli river yesterday afternoon.
 Fighting Severe
 Fighting was described by both sides as severe on the Koritza front and 1t appeared that the Fascists were claiming to have rallied and made important gains in that sector
 The southwestern front was before the Greek town of Janina, toward which the Italians advanced lasl week. A large column of crack Ital' Ian mountain troops, probably i2,' 900 men, was reported stlll en- clrcied by Greek forces northwes of Janlna.
 In the air, both Italian and Greek. British forces were reported ntrlk' ing heavily. The Fascist plano'

IOHNL. LEWIS KEEPS SILENT
 ON ELECTION CEO Chieftain Makes No Comment - May End
 Labor Reign THREATENED TO QUIT
 IF ROOSEVELT WON But Roosevelt Election May End Breach in
 Labor Ranks
BY FRED BAILEY United Press Staff Correspondent)

(Uniteu fresS StatI C0rreSpOndent)
 Washington, November 6. - (UP) = Chairman John L. Lewis of the Congress of h. dustrial Organizations with held comment today on the election which probably will end his reign as CIO chief tain. Lewis 10 days ago denounced President Roose- velt's candidacy, described him as an "erratic, war -mongering politician" and staked his CIO leadership on the election of Wen- dell L. Willkie.
 Appealing to labor to support this stand, he said that MT. Roosevelt's reelection would mean that the members of the Congress of Indus trial Organizations have rejected my advice and recommendation.
 T will accept the result as being the equivalent of a vote of no con- fidence," he continued. And will retire as president of the Congress of Industrial Organizations at its annual convention"
 The convention will he held in Atlantic City November IS. Lewis's aides thought he would abide by his promise, though remaining president of the United Mine Workers Union, one of the CLOS largest affiliates. May Heal Breach
 An early renewal of negotiations to heal the four-year-old breach in organized labor appeared likely as result.
 Three men, all considered more friendly than Lewis toward an agreement to end the rift, have been mentioned as his successor. They are Sidney Hillman, Philip Murray and R. J. Thomas.
 Hillman, labor representative of the National Defense Commission. and head of the Garment Workers Union in the CIO, has been a leader in peace negotiations with the AFL.
 Murray, soft-spoken chairman of the CLOS steel workers organizing committee, announced his support of President Roosevelt week be- fore Lewis urged his followers to vote for Willkie.
 Thomas Is the young, dynamic head of the CIO faction of the United Automobile Workers. He, also, was active in support of Pres ident Roosevelt. Many labor off, cials consider him the logical man to succeed Lewis.

 Hyde Park, N. Y., Nov. 6.-(UP)- President Roosevelt today promised undertaking support for principles of his New Deal in the harsh years inc to which he fears the New World IS heading.
 T think you will find me in the future just exactly the same Frank lin Roosevelt you have known for a great many years," he said in a vic- tory speech in his Hyde Park neigh bors.
 That was the first public uttey- ance of the President after the trend of Tuesdays voting had been estab- lished.

Shut out of the White House, 1t appears also that the c. o. P. again lost the House of Representatives. On the basis of incomplete returns the House seems to have remained Democratic with substantial and perhaps increased majorities. There never was a chance that the c. O. P. could obtain control of the Sen- ate in yesterdays elections.
 Republicans may have gained some gubernatorial posts, but the unmis- takable trend to the Republican party shown in the 1888 general elec- tions were reversed.
 Landslide Indicated
 An electoral vote landslide was in- dicated on the basis of incomplete returns at $40 a. rn., but the math- ematical certainties guaranteed MT Roosevelt but little beyond a bare majority of 266 votes at that time. The popular vote was close in com- parison.
 By that hour the United Press had tabulated 37,s38.4i3 votes diyid- ed as follows:
