Great Unkn0wns 10
Play Important Part
In November Election
First Of two articles on two
great November unknowns-the
Women's Vote and the Worker
VOte.)
BY JACK sTINNETT

WASHINGTON, July 81. - One
prediction can be made now: the
next President of the United States
will be that man who can make the
deepest inroads on the woman and
worker votes.
For the first time in Presiden-
tial election, the women undoubtedly
will outvote the men. OF the nearly
100000 potential voters in the
country, approximately 100000
are women. However, in 1912 women
cast So per cent of the total vote
in Congressional elections. Cross
section polls and examination OF
registration records indicate that
in November they may cast as much
as SIS per cent.
OF these potential women voters,
100000 are non agricultural
workers, and it is assumed that
their interest will be as workers as
we'll as women.
Following the election in 1910,
Democratic National Chairman I'd
Flynn announced fatty that 1t was
the women of the country who ell
ected Mr.. Roosevelt to his third
term. His statement was made on
the basis of reports from party
machines.
Public opinion polls have indi-
Gated that this trend has con-
tinued, but none of any scope has
been made since Gov. Thomas E.
Dewey was nominated and President
Roosevelt announced his willingness
to run for a fourth term and was
nominated
Republicans here point out that
Gov. Dewey has an exceptional radio
personality, is attractive personally,
is one of the best conseryatively

intercede with him to get her a lu-
crative modelling job. But she saw
you coming out Of Syrla's apart

were disguised as Redbeard, you
were afraid she might have pierced

she knew for certain or not, you
felt she was a menace to your

"But Pierre Sturgis saw that
piece in the paper about Redbeard

had Offices in that location and he
must've seen you in that neighbor-

surprised you and arrived with n
