and other "pinks" in New
York to defeat him. He was
the only Republican elected
on the judicial slate in New
York City. Is this trend?
This correspondent voted
the straight Democratic ticket
for State Offices in Vir-
ginia because he felt the Re-
publican candidates favored
New Deal spending and ex-
travagance and were being
supported by the Stevenson
Democrats on a New Deal
platform Does this mean the
writer is "trending" to the
New Deal because of a vote
for a Democrat in the guber-
material race?
Again-in the recent Wis
consin election-a Democrat
was elected to the House of
Representatives who pledged
himself to support the record
of a Republican "isolationist"
with votes against the Mar
shall Plan and measures of
that kind. Is this a trend in
the Democratic Party and is
former President Truman now
happy to welcome isolation
lists" to his political bosom?
The upshot of it all is that
locally party labels aren't
what they used to be and that
theological points of view are
being exhibited in both
parties. The late President
Roosevelt always considered
congressional elections III the
off-years to be local" In
1912, when the Republicans
won 209 seats in the House of
Re preSe tiveS and the
Democrats only 222 as COM
pared with their peak Of 333
in 1886, Mr.. Roosevelt in
sisted that it was an election
based on local issues and per-
sonalities and didn't signify a
trend" He was right. For in
1914 the Democrats went back
up to 242 seats in the House
and won the presidency, too.
So trends aren't trends ex-
cept with the wishful thinkers
in both parties, and anybody
who can detect a mandate this
week in the municipal and
State elections and in one con-
gresSional district is discover
ing something which most of
the Republican and Demo-
cratic leaders privately will
not admit-though their pub
licity comedies or claims lots

Liberals Have q Day at Polls
Significance Found in New Jersey Congressional Election
Following That in Wisconsin,; Virginia Democrats Revolt

A fairly clear pattern
emerges as you consider the
election results now making
the Democrats so happy. 1t
seems to reveal a resurgence
of liberalism in American poll
tics. This not merely because
so many Democrats are WIN

of Democrats they happen to
be and the circumstances sur
rounding their election.

was generally attributed to a
revolt of the farmers against

But there was more to it than
that. The district never had
elected anything but Republi-

they had particular kind of
Republican, a Lafollette Re-

the party folded up one be-

other a Republican.

ANTWERP, Belgium. Nov. S.
- This little country - using
American-built helicopters - is
pointing the way for the United
States by establishing big-scale
regularly scheduled helicopter
transportation over considerable
distances.
This new service in Western
Europe might we'll prove equally
successful if tried out by an
airline servicing Washington,

prove the answer to the congest-

Authorities say there is every
reason to believe that passengers
embarking from airlines in
Washington National Airport
would, with similar service, be
able to reach towns within a
200-mile radius of the Nations
Capital. which are not serviced
by airlineS. And this could be
done without the inconvenience
of delays involved by taking

But because the internal politi-
cal situation in Germany and
Spain is so different from that

This combine, it is said, will

it will implement the military

the creation of new armed

doubtful that the French

U. G. Denman, Toledo, represented
Mr.. Zetzer, who filed the suit as

The local attorneys told the
Court of Appeals that Port Clin-
toms village council in 1853 had
permitted part of Perry Street to
be used by the Port Clinton Rail-
road Company and its successor,
the New York Central Railroad
System. In 1888, the council passed
an ordinance vacating part of this
tract.
In 1880, the late John Lundgard

the case to the Ohio Supreme Court
if the Court of Appeals refused a

Mr.. Zetzer said his company now
employs over 200 people. The fac !.
tory is located on West Perry

city's progress is being greatly cur
tailed by failure to open West Per-
