Midwest Strong for Dewey
BU Charles N Wheeler

CHICAGO, Oct. 2l.-Two weeks
before the election Illinois, accord
ing to reliable reports and actual
polls, is in the Republican column.
So also are Indiana, Iowa, Wisconsin
and Minnesota.
1t Is this picture that may bring
President Roosevelt to Chicago in a
few days for what is planned as one
OF the biggest political demonstra-
tions since the AL Smith parade in
1928.
Whether the magic voice will be
able to reverse the COP tide, partic-
ularly in Illinois, is regarded doubt
ful by party leaders. Their compu .
tations, based largely on secret polls
in all sections of the State add up to
an estimated plurality in the 101
doWnstate counties of more than
100000 Some put the high figure
at 100000.
Cook County holds the key to the
situation for the Democrats.
Practically complete enrolment
figures set new high, with 4,501 554
eligible to vote, net increase over
the 1910 vote of 239 900. The signifi-
canoe of these figures is that Cook
County actually registered 281 900
more than its 1910 vote while the
downstate territory Jagged behind
the 1910 vote by $4,000. The regis
tration is divided: Downstate, O.
O8O,701; Cook County, 2,42O,853.
But the country towns of Cook
County, traditionally Republican by
large majorities, increased their reg
istration over the 1910 vote by more
than 100000, which cuts the Chicago
increase to approximately 100000
The discernible swing of old line
Democrats and conservative Farmer
Laborites to Dewey in Minnesota
and the growing popularity of Gov
ernor their appear to have more
than overcome the Achilles pout of
Senator Ball.
The Dewey tide is running high in
Iowa with present indications that
Gov. Hickenlooper easily will bowl
over Senator Gillette In their race.
Nothing has occurred in Indiana
the past week to indicate material
change in the Dewey lead.

Dewey Gains in Missouri
By James F. Kino,

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Oct. 2l.-
Gains made by Gov. Thomas E.
Dewey in his hard-hitting campaign
which started with his Oklahoma
City speech have placed Missouri
among the States which can be
counted upon by the Republican
standard bearer.
His appearance before a packed,
enthusiastic audience in st. Louis
Monday night provided the impetus
which showed the State from the
doubtful column into the COP camp.
Dewey has been building solidly
in Missouri since his nomination
He had a strong following to start
with, to which has been added thou
sands Of warm supporters. Now his
strength is about evenly divided be-
tween those who are voting for him
and those who are voting against
Roosevelt.
Talks this week with small mer-
chants, farmers, editors, business
and professional men have uncov-
cred decided swing to Dewey. This
IS not only noticeable in strong Re-
publican sections, but there Is an
unmistakeable undercurrent through
the areas heretofore marked as
Democratic.
The neighbor State of Kansas is
definitely in the Republican column,
where 1t has been since the start
OF the campaign. Under the leader
ship of Gov. Andrew Schoeppel the
State organization is preparing to
turn in a majority of about 100000
for Dewey and the State ticket.

about 90 per cent of the total Mis-
SiSsippi vote in November.
Oklahoma Is the one State in this
area that is different, and Okla
homa may prove the closest State,
as between Republican and Demo-
cratic victory Of the presidential
elector states, in the entire Nation.
II will be the closest race since the
Harding landslide in Oklahoma,
with the northern portion of the
State heavily Republican, and A
large independent vote in the State.
Two years ago Oklahoma elected a
New Deal Governor and an anti
New Deal Senator at the same elec-
ton. Nominee Dewey made a strong
impression in his speeches at Okla
home City and elsewhere, and this
spurred Gov. Robert S. Kerr and
Democratic leaders to more aggres-
sive contemplating. Demo-
cratic Senator Elmer Thomas was
reported in considerable danger of
defeat by William'J. Often Of Enid,

Jersey Still for Dewey
By Robert T. Taulor.

6y hOOeTt i. IuytOr.
NEWARK, n. j., Oct. 21.-If the
voters of New Jersey had balloted
last Friday Gov. Dewey probably
would have won the State.
When the citizens of New Jersey
actually go to the polls on Novem-
ber 7, however, the result might be
different.
This may sound like double talk,
but neutral observers are agreed
that sentiment on the presidential
candidates within the Garden State
is SO near an even division that any,
thing might happen before the polls
close.
At this moment all but the DEM
ocrats agree that Dewey has the
edge. And former New Jersey Gov.
Charles Edison's visit to the White
House last Tuesday showed that at
least one good Democrat feels the
same way. Edison even went so far
as to tell President Roosevelt that
Dewey would capture the State by "a
substantial majority"
Objective students of the trends
can't quite admit the adjective
substantial" They 60 along with
Edison otherwise, however, and are
In complete accord with his idea
(Which he expressed to newsmen
after the White House visit, but not
to the President that an appear
ance by F. D. r. in New Jersey could
change the picture.
The Republicans took a good stra-
tegic line. They held of a definite
announcement about the time of
Dewey's visit to the State, long since
promised, because they knew a visit
by F. D. R. would require a neatly
maneuvered offset.

Prussia has been reported from
Berlin, although Moscow as usual
is silent on the situation pending
definite accomplishment of real vic

that huge forces of men, spear
headed by tanks, have been thrown

of Eydtkuhnen had been by-passed

city of Insterburg.
In fact, a, climactic battle is be-

striking at the East Prussian border
from the north, east and south.
Berlin claims to be inflicting heavy
losses, but admits initial Russian
successes.

Maryland Margin Close
BIZ EdDtn Young.

BALTIMORE, Md. Oct. 21.-
Skipping the public victory claims
of Roosevelt and Dewey camps in
Maryland as meaningless, several
Democratic leaders this week de-
cided that the President probably
will carry the State by a majority
ranging from 10000 to $4,000. These
figures won't appear in public state
ments under any ones name, but
they represent the best estimates OF
the Democrats now.
This is quite drop from the 1910
Roosevelt majorty of 115,000, and 1t
comedies a considerable trend to-
ward Dewey. Remember, these
figures are from the Democratic
side; the Republicans aren't esti-
mating yet, as they want to watch
the trend for few more days.
The leaders who got together on
these private figures estimated that
the best Roosevelt can expect from
Baltimore city is about $4,000 votes
more than Dewey. In 1910 he went
out of the city with a majority of
87,000-pluS over Willkie. The best
majority they can see for the Presi-
dent in the % counties Is 10000, as
against more than 27,000 in 1910.
The county figure is admittedly any
body's guess. Not many people
would be surprised to see Dewey
take the counties by small margin.
In both city and county estimates,
the Democratic leaders are count
ing on heavy service vote for
Roosevelt, based on private talks
with returning servicemen. These
same leaders hope for a State serv-
ice vote of $4,000, and they expect
rs per cent of that vote to 60 for
Roosevelt.
Meantime, the latest county reg
istration figures to come in show an
increase in Republican figures for
predominantly Democratic Freder-
ick County. The COP gained in 80
of the so precincts for a net regis,
tration increase of 452 over 1912. 1t
was the first Republican trend in
new voters for Frederick County in
20 years. However, total Democratic
registration still leads. 15,575 to
12,746.
Maryland is still leaning to Roose-
velt but 1t wouldn't take great
deal of strain to push it the other
way.
In Delaware the picture is some
what the same, as far as overall re-
suits are concerned. A national
Democratic figure who was making
very extensive private poll this
week and who wanted to know the
unvarnished truth was told that the
outcome of the presidential election
in Delaware is doubtful at present,
but that the trend is to Roosevelt.

A nnuaI Daumier Exhibition
At Phillips Gallery

Some years ago, Duncan Phillips
said that Honore Daumier, "a great
hearted Titan" was his favorite, his
ideal artist. This may be one reason
why there is an annual Daumier
exhibition at the Phillips Memorial
Gallery, the present one comprising
more than 30 Autographs occupying
both printrooms. 1t vii remain to
October 90.
Actually no excuse is needed for
the recurrent showings of Daumier's
prints, other than their perennial
interest and appeal. His expressive
line transcribed so accurately phys
ical eccentricities, human foibles,
revelations of character, and anus
ing and pathetic situations, that one
never tires of seeing his work.
Some of the jokes are lost to US
now; at least, they no longer seem
funny. But We still take delight in
the beautiful draughtsmanship, the
velvety tones of these Autographs,
whatever they depict. Many, of
course, deal with situations and
types as vivid today as when Dau-
mier drew them. The man in bed

window. being sprinkled inadvert-

these and man. other incidents
feelingly depicted by Daumier have

New England Pattern Set.
By John O'Connor,

BOSTON, Mass, Oct. 21.-The
Dewey surge is now making itself
felt in Massachusetts, for the first
time in the campaign. 1t began
about 10 days ago. of unspecified
origin, and apparently will continue
to rise to the point where an out
standing speech or an outstanding
blunder will decide whether Presi-
dent Roosevelt or Gov. Dewey wins
Massachusetts Is elecoral votes.
A month ago it appeared in
evitable that the President would
carry Massachusetts. Today it is not
inevitable, and Dewey victory en-
tirely possible. President Roosevelt's
campaign managers in this State
announce privately (there has been
no confirmation from the White
House as to the date) that the
President will speak in Boston on
the night of November 4.
Apparently they have convinced
the President that Massachusetts,
while still probably Democratic, is to
be considered doubtful State.
Elsewhere in New England there
can be no doubt that Maine and
Vermont will remain in the Repub-
lican column, with New Hampshire
sure bet also to wind up in the
Dewey camp.
Rhode Island is now conceded to
be sure Roosevelt State.
The Dewey ascendency in Massa-
chusetts was given impetus during
the past week, when Gov. Leverett
Saltonstall, who is heavily favored
to top the State ticket as the Re-
publican nominee for the United
States Senate, finally got out on the
firing line for the New York chief
executive. 1t was significant that
Mr.. Saltonstall chose the Com
munist issue on which to blast the
New Deal, for Massachusetts voters
in past elections have proved them
selves bitter antagonists of Com
munists or Communist can
didateS.
Approximately 2,5O0,00O Massa-
chusetts citizens have qualified
through registration to participate
in the election, an all-time record
The voting lists in Boston and in
other large New England commu-
mites also reached record propor-
tions.
With the CIO out to line up the
vote for the New Deal in this State.
this unprecedented registration
should be indicative of being pre-
ponderantly Democratic. However,
the Republican organization in Mas
sachusetts is functioning far better
than 1t did four years ago, and it
appears that many Republican vot-
ers who were Indifferent in past
elections have now come forward
to register in their determination to
vote on election day.

Dewey Sentiment Gains
BIZ James De K. BroaDu

SEATTLE, Oct. 21.-With the
election two weeks away, Washing
ton State as of today will support
the Roosevelt ticket; Oregon Is
doubtful, but sentiment is swinging
back toward Dewey; Idaho is safely
Dewey;e Montana Is for Roosevelt
but Dewey is gaining daily.
During the past week, there has
been a upsurge of Republican senti-
ment in Washington. While this
State will give Roosevelt It's support,
with a comparatively small major
ity, the congressional and State tick
cts will be badly split. The senatorial
fight is doubtful. Harry F. Cain, Re-
publican, who is in Europe and has
not been home for the campaign,
and Representative Warren G. Mag
nuson, Democrat, are running neck
and neck. The Republicans are GER
tain of three of the six congressional
districts with strong possibilities of
taking a fourth seat, due to split
in the Democratic ranks over Hude
de Lacey, Democratic nominee, q
CIO supported candidate.
Oregon is showing an increasing
Roosevelt support. 1t is now doubt
full. The two Republican nominees
for the Senate are leading their
ticket. The State, nominally Repub-
hcan, had shown a sudden shift to
Roosevelt. but the tide Is chanoino
and Dewey is forging up once more.
This Roosevelt shift does not affect
the rest of the ticket.
In Montana Roosevelt Is losing
strength. This is helping the Re-
publican ticket. Idaho is Republican,
top to bottom. Democratic leaders
in the Pacific Northwest frankly
fear band-wagon desertion to
Dewey If the present trend for him
continues. This can happen over
night. It has in the past.
