The CrossIey Poll
BY ARCHIBALD M. CROssLEY.

Dewey voters in the pivotal States
give as the greatest single reason
for their choice their disapproval of
a fourth term for President Roose-
welt. In general, the reasons Sc
lected as the most important reflect
disapproval of continuing the pres
ent administration.
At the start of the Republican
campaign, sample of the electorate
appeared to be less concerned with
postwar jobs and prosperity than
with other things. This sample was
objecting to New Deal spending and
taxation, wanting better govern
mental appointments and better
management, saying that "Roose-
velt wants too much power" and
asking for the breaking up of "po-
litical rackets."
The desire for keeping away from
foreign problems was minor. Com
paratively few objected to Roose-
velt because of age. The compare
tive standing of the eight biggest
reasons for voting for Dewey" fol-
low:

magnate, has his own specific pat
tern" for reconversion, and he is
much encouraged by President
Roosevelt's reaction" to 1t.

yesterday and later told newsmen
that he and other industrialists
whom he did not name, now are
ready to make the program effective.
Under this plan, Mr.. Kaiser and
others of similar viewpoint would
take over plants already closed or
about to shut down and continue
manufacturing war products, while
the original contractors return to
peace production. Mr.. Kaiser, who
is now active in about 20 industries
producing at least 100 different ar
ticles. said he would convert to
peace production some day, but he
doesn't know when.>
The industrialist said the Presi-
dent seemed determined to do the
reconversion job thoroughly and
I am now confident we are well on
our way"
He asserted there was no doubt
in his mind that the President mot
only believes as thoroughly as I dc
in our American system of free en-
terprise and free competition, but
that he will continue to do every
thing in his power to foster and
encourage it,"
Mr.. Kaiser is chairman Of the
newly formed Non-Partisan Com
mittee for Franchise Education,

The issue of the fourth term as
sumes relatively greater importance
when analyzed by the 1910 vote. OF
those who voted for Roosevelt in
1910 and are shifting to Dewey, the
fourth term accounts for "a per cent,
compared with 19 per cent for the
Willkie voters for Dewey, who were
more concerned with spending and
taxation. The fourth term is the
principal reason given by Dewey
voters in the middle and lower eco
