Ohio More Strongly COP
BIZ L, r, Connor.

COLUMBUS. Ohio. Sept. 3o.-In
view Of the fact that the Democratic
nominee for Governor Of Ohio is
generally avoiding much contact
with State Democratic headquarters
and county Democratic chairmen,
and in view of the further fact that
he is in some degree lacking sum-
cient money with which to finance
his campaign, 1t is more or less gen.
orally agreed that Ohio this year
will again elect Republican Gov
ernor.
What Is being watched with more
interest here, however, than the
statements OF candidates on how the
election will go is the pace at which
registrations are being made In the
larger cities. 1t is considered neces-
sary, If President Roosevelt is to
maintain the slim lead he held in
1910, that the loss of Roosevelt
voters In the industrial centers
through the migration OF workers
be made up in large part by others
who have moved in to take their
places.
The registration must be COM
pleted by October .. But SO far the
reduction in the number Of qualified
voters in such cities as Cleveland
and Akron is not being made up
very rapidly. The PAC is active,
however, In It's campaign to get
union members registered and no
one can say definitely as yet wteth-
er 1t will have been successful by
the time the deadline arrives.
In the meantime Republican sup
porters claim definitely and in no
uncertain terms to have noticed q
strengthening Of Dewey sentiment
throughout the State since his Ok
lahoma City speech. II their OBJ
servations are correct, Ohio may be
counted leaning further Republican
than ct any time yet since the na-
tional conventions.

Low Registration Aids COP
BY James r. King.


KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Sept. 3o.-
The 1914 presidential campaign ir
Missouri and Kansas goes into the
month Of October with . definitely
brighter outlook for the Republican
vote drive, due primarily to the ro-
bust speech Of Coy. Thomas e
Dewey in Oklahoma City Monday.
There has been no doubt that
Kansas would stay safely in the
COP column by margin close to
100000, but the Dewey speech
warmed up the workers to the task
Of getting out the ballots so that any
apathy which might exist could be
overcome. {
In Missouri. where thousands of
radios were tuned to the Oklahoma
City broadcast, the fighting address
was tonic that spurred the COP
into renewed efforts to swing the
State away from the Roosevelt camp.
The late September surveys show
the alignment so close that any
slight trend In either direction may
tip the scales. The Democratic
campaign admittedly is not making
the showing it did In the last three
Roosevelt campaigns.
Senator Harry S. Truman, the
Democratic vice presidential candi-
date, has been of little or no help to
the party drive In his home State.
The voters have shown little enthu-
siasm for his appearance on the
ticket. contrary to earlier expecta-
tions.
The chief worry in Missouri con-
tinues to be the size Of the vote.
Registration Is on In Kansas City
and few new names are being added.
Thousands Of war workers in st.
Louis and Kansas City win not be
eligible to vote because Of residence
requirements. Other thousands who
went to work in war plants in other
States will be unable to cast absentee
ballots in Missouri because of statu-
tory provisions. Republicans regard
this as favorable to their cause be-
cause Of the New Deal appeal to the
union votes.

purge" list, and some of the lesser

Knutson probably will be joining
them shortly.
Dunn, too, has directed a few barbs
at Democratic Vice Presidential
Nominee Harry Truman, not ninc-
ing words In directing attention to
Trumanis former connection with
the Pendergast gang in Kansas City.
On the surface, 1t appears Repub-
lican leaders are paying more at
tention to Hillman and CIO and
Truman's early background than to
the forthcoming visits of Presidential
Candidate Dewey, his running mate,
John w. Bricker; Gov. Earl Warren
OF California and others summoned
to help in insuring a Dewey -Bricker
victory In Minnesota.
There's a big fight on now for the
estimated 8 to 10 per cent Of Mime
sofa fence-riding voters who may
not make up their minds until they
start marking crosses on the ballot
They could. no doubt. decide the
election one way or the other.
Democrats, spurred by President
Roosevelt's talk to teamsters, aren't
exactly idle. They want Agricul-
tural Secretary Wickard or Interior
Secretary Ickes to come out and
help them In the campaign actively
led by Democratic Candidate for
Governor Byron G. Allen. Allen Is
stresSing Roosevelts record. They're
convinced Roosevelt did himself
much good In his teamster address,
but now the presence of political
big wigs will help.
Republicans, on the other hand,
weren't too enthusiastic about
Deweys speeches until he put some
fire into the one at Oklahoma City
Now they want more like 1t.

Connecticut Worries PAC
By Robert D. Byrnes.

HARTFORD, Conn. Sept. so.-
The Political Action Committee
campaign In Connecticut to enroll
new voters and to raise funds for
the reelection Of Roosevelt thus far
has been admittedly disappointing
according to leaders OF the move
ment. Harold D. Senior, director of
the campaign, blames general apathy
and says the major parties are hav-
ing the same difficulties. No figures
on enrolment are available vet.
Connecticut has permanent regis
tration Of voters, and the current
campaign is to "have made" those
who have moved into the State,
especially in the industrial areas,
and those who have come of voting
age. Senior is hopeful Of heavier en-
rollments next month in the final
weeks Of the time for making new
voters.
In Hartford, where the leaders Of
the local organization were in the
minority in the State convention
fights, the small number of new
voters being enrolled is causing open
concern to Democratic candidates,
and has brought charges from the
PAC group there that it is the only
organization doing any work to in
crease the Democratic vote ip No
vember.
Bridgeport seems to be an excep-
tion to the general lack Of success
Of the PAC campaign, and relatively
heavy enrolment of new voters is
reported there, leading some PAC
members to predict that they will
produce . sufficiently big Demo-
cratic lead in Bridgeport to bring
about the defeat Of Representative
Clare Boothe Luce.
Connecticut has its annual town
meeting day Monday with about
100 Of the 169 towns holding annual
or biennial elections Of local Of

DENVER, Sept. 30.-Colorado's
political campaign suddenly sprane
to life this week after weeks Of in
action. Both parties have selected
party oficials and completed cam
paign plans. The Republicans re-
elected william Lloyd Of Pueblo
State chairman. Gene Cervi, former
Denver newspaperman, was chosen
by the Democrats.
Harmony was the keynote Of the
COP gatherings. Confidence was
boosted to high degree by Gov.
Dewey's Oklahoma City speech.
Leaders plan double the vote
for Dewey day" October IS, calling
for meetings In every precinct in
the State.
Democratic leaders report progress
in their efforts to unite their divided
factions. They were jubilant over
the action Of labor's State political
assembly which went on record in
'dorsing President Roosevelt They
also found satisfaction in the state
ment by A. r. Whitney, head of
the Brotherhood Of Railroad Train
men, that he is 100 per cent for the
President.
Utah's campaign Is expected to hit
q peak this coming week. Both the
Republicans and Democrats will
bring In national party leaders for
Statewide rallies. Clarence Buding-
ton Kelland is due in Salt Lake Oc-
tober S for two-day stay In behalf
Of Dewey.
New Mexico's widely split factions
are centering their interest on State
issues, although Carroll Gunderson,
the COP gubernatorial candidate,
started carrying the ball for Dewey
in various sections Of the State last
week. Phillip Hubbell, COP State
chairman, completed q tour of six
counties and says ,Dewey's vote will
surprise the confident Democratic
machine.
Candidates for major Offices In
Wyoming have campaigns well un-
der way, the majority taking to
radio when possible due to gas ra-
tioning and long distances between
counties. COP leaders say they are
well pleased with Dewey's progress
and predict he will continue to gain.
Democrats completed organization
with enlarged headquarters in Chey-
enne now on around -the-clock basis.

Guerrilla
By Lord Dunsany. fBobbs-M
rul.)
It would, of course, be too much
to expect Lord Dunsany to write
q realistic novel. Even though, as
in the present case, he writes about
the war, 1t would be too much to
look to the old master Of fantasy
for grinly factual treatment of his
subject. If precedent be needed
to establish that statement, there
is the circumstance that he has
already done one novel about a war,
and a war which was naturally of
peculiar poignance to him, the Irish
rebellion. Yet even that intimate
conflict came out in his interpreta-
! ton as q piece of his own imagining
up in the Hills" tells q story OF
fighting the like Of which has seldom
been seen on land or sea. So, writ
ing Of the present huge interna-
tional war in terms of q minor
sector of its Balkan front, it is not
to be wondered at that he pro-
duces something in the mood OF
Robin Hood" Nor need 1t be the
cause for any carping; he was
Lord Dunsany before there was q
war. 1t would be too bad If his
particular flavor were to be added
to the other breakage.
Guerrilla" tells of an unnamed
Balkan country .in which German
occupation is resisted only by q
small band of guerrillas and deals
mainly with accounts Of how tiny
patriot bands wiped out huge bodies
Of the enemy. It Is not Dunsany
at his best; there is q kind Of mo-
notony about 1t and q lack Of those
brilliant, imaginative touches which
made up in the Hills" 50 memora-
BILE. But it does convey that sense
OF good against pure undiluted evil
which one remembers from some of
the earlier fantasies and, while not
calculated to add anything to Its
authors fame, Is somewhat above
the ordinary run Of war fiction.
