Hopes for Fair Weather.
Gov. Dewey goes to New York
City tomorrow to vote and listen
to the election returns, hoping that
the sun is shining on the farm
fields where the harvesting and
some fall blowing is going on,
particularly in New York and Penn
sylvania.
Although he has travelled 22,321
miles in his quest of the 266 electoral
votes he needs to win, many of Gov.
Dewey's hackers believe the fate Of
his bid for the presidency, will be
determined largely in New York,
with AZ votes, and Pennsylvania,
with 35. In both States the Repub-
licans apparently must depend on
a heavy rural vote, which rain
usually reduces.

directly at President Roosevelt and
the New Deal, with such onslaughts
as he unloosed at Madison Square
Gardens mammoth rally Saturday
night.

were paying in blood through a
prolongation of the battle of Ger

| Criticizes Morganthau Plan.
! The Republican nominee criti-
cized what he said was private
plan for disposing of the German
people after the war" which he at
tributed to Secretary of the Treas
ury Morgenthau. Declaring that
this plan had been taken to the
Quebec conference between Mr..
