Willkie s Death To Spur
Independent Vote Fight

WASHINGTON, Oct. 9.-<P)c
The death of Wendell L. Will
kie may intensity both republic
can and democratic efforts to
cultivate the Independent vote.
Willkie himself was independ-
ent in his thinking and actions.
He was a democrat until short
ly before his nomination as the
1910 republican presidential
candidate. He had been a re-
publican since.
The size of his personal fol
lowing is a matter of dispute
among politicians, but both re-
publicans and democrats say it
probably was concentrated
among voters not aligned solid
ly with either major party.
They are the voters who
would be most likely to split
their tickets or who would vote
