hcGrath Says Gallup
Fails 10 Give Accurate
Interpretation Of Poll
BY the Assoeiatad Press

NEW YORK, Oct. Ex-senator
McGrath. Democratic national chair.
man-claiming that actually 1.-THE
advantage Is with Truman and not
Dewey"-has urged DR.. George Gal.
lup to properly adjust. his election
polls 80 that the voters may know
the truth"
Senator McGrath told DR.. Gallur
in a telegram last night that "youl
polls this year do not tell complete
story nor give an accurate interpre.
tation of your own findings"
Senator McGrath said an advan.
tage for President Truman insteac
OF Gov. Dewey would be shown il
the Gallup poll results were ad.
justed in line with percentage error.
IN the two previous presidential
campaigns.
Called Historical Error"
The Democratic chairman claimee
DR.. Gallup missed by an average Of
"a per cent in 1910 and 2.s per cent
in 1944-each time to the advantage
of the Republicans.
This historical error in favor OF
Republicans mirrors the reluctance
of some poll takers to 60 into fac.
tories and poor areas" Senator Nc.
Grath said.
DR.. GaIup's reply was: I'VE cal
the shots as we see them" and "the
only answer to Mr.. McGrath will
come on next Tuesday,
DR.. Gallup, head of the American
Institute of Public Opinion, sale
last night it is proud" of its l94(
and 1914 records.
Gallup Waits for Tuesday.
Saying we've never reached the
point yet where we claim infalli.
bility," ne added:
Next Tuesday the whole worle
will be able to see down to the last
percentage point how good we are
MIR. McGrath and any one else i.
entitled to interpret our figures ir
any way they see fit. We see our.
selves merely as scorekeepers. Ir
every election we expect to be at.
tackled by the party that, unfortu.
nately is not ahead"
Senator McGrath had told DR.
Gallup,
The Republican Party is striving
desperately to keep people from
voting, by its propaganda that the
election will be q walkover for Gov
Dewey, and is using alleged polls
to bolster its claims. I am sure
that you do not want to participate
in these efforts"
Submits Adjusted Figures"
Senator Mcirath, who submitted
to DR.. Gallup a list of Stately
State adjusted figures from the
latest Gallup Poll, said in his tele-
gram:
Your figures for all the States
together in 1e48 show 46 per cent
for Dewey and 40 per cent for Tru-
man, as we'll as 8 per cent unde-
cided.
When the undecided vote is
eliminated and the adjustment is
made for your average State-by-
State error In 1914, the figures
change to 47-2 for Dewey and 46.2
Tor Truman, which is practically O
tie. But this is not the whole pic
ture.
When we realize that your allot-
ment OF 6 per cent for Wallace and
Thurmond on a national basis is
probably far too high-a. large news
paper poll. for example. shows today
90 per cent for Wallace In New
York State as against the IL per
cent shown by your poll-when we
also realize that the greater part
OF the so-called undecided vote will

Mrs. 6izycka Fights
Efforts 10 Speed Up
Patterson Will Case

Counsel for Mrs. Felicia Gizycka
today opposed speeding up the con-
test OF Mrs. Eleanor Patterson,s viii
and renewed their arguments for
permission to search the personal
papers of the late Times-Herald
publisher.
Through her attorneys, Mrs.
Glzycka argued that executors of
the will she is trying to break had
control OF the papers for a while
and would have a tremendous ad-
vantage" II she didn't see them, too.
MRS. Gizycka, only daughter of
MRS. Patterson, is contesting the
Will on grounds her mother was of
unsound mind and that the will was
obtained through fraud, deceit, CO.
ercion and undue influences. Mrs.
Patterson's personal papers, she
argued, might well throw some light
on these issues.
To the executors contention that
Mrs. Gixycka was attempting a
"nshing expedition" among the pa
pers, her attorneys replied that
fishing expeditions" are permitted
under the rules and they want to
avoid surprises" during the trial.
Replying to the executors ex-
pressed fears that a search of the
papers might reveal confidential In
formation about the Times-Herald
to its competitors, Mrs Gizycka re-
piled that Mrs. Patterson's business
ability had been brought into the
case by the executors.
In opposing executors efforts to
ge the case to trial by December 6
or as soon afterward as possible
MRS. Gizycka's attorneys said she
was justified in believing the execu-
tors are trying to speed up the case
10 Keep her from having the bene-
Mt OF existing evidence.
She denied she had made "enptv
gestures" toward Mrs. Patterson
secret beneficiaries and offered to
join the executors in any "welI-
considered effort" to relieve hardship
suffered by those who had been de-
pendent on Mrs. Patterson for SUD-
port.
Mrs. Gizycka's attorneys said she
nled her contest of the will before
1t was admitted to probate not be-
cause she wanted to prevent expedi-
tlous administration of the SIC, ,500,-
600 estate but because she did not
want 1t administered by those whose
interests were hostile to her own"
