WiiIkie, Roosevelt Seek

President Roosevelt and his ri
val. Wendell L. Willkie, set a
driving pace today for the final
week of the 1910 campaign. each
seeking prize blocs of electoral
votes represented by populous in
dustrial states.
Both candidates worked on
crowded schedules.
Mr. Rooseyelt's program includ-
ed a tour of northern New Jersey
and New York's five boroughs
with numerous stops. The climax
Of his day will be a speech at
Madison Square Garden tonight.
New York and New Jersey have
total of SO electoral votes a
weighty advantage for the candi-
date who captures them Nov. 5.
Willkie put three states on his
schedule today-lllinois, Indiana
and Kentucky-in a quest for
their sizeable total Of "a electoral
votes. He will close the day with
a major speech at Louisville, Ky.
Mr.. Roosevelt served advance
notice that his Madison Square
Garden speech would embody
much the same tactics as he used
a week ago in Philadelphia, when
he opened a broadside attack on
what he called the fantastic mis-
statements" made by his opposi-
ton in the campaign.
Willkie, travelling west to In
diana, assailed the administration
anew Sunday. charging that its
Housing program has begged
down" due to faulty direction and
failure to acknowledge the real
extent of slum clearance sub
sides. He pledged TO accelerate
slum clearance work.

'laughable in the light of the
consistent and almost solid Re-

government to improve housing
