Polls Kept Busy
Despite Rain, Snow;
No 'Aputhy' Noted

Unexpectedly heavy voting in
many parts of the country was
reported today as voters trooped
to the polls to decide control
Democratic or Republican-of
the next Congress.
The rush of morning balloting
despite rain and snow in some
areas indicated the total Nation
wide vote would push well above
advance estimates of As million.
There was no way of deter
mining how much part the last
minute get-out-and-vote pleas
Of President Eisenhower and
Adlai Stevenson, the 1852 Demo-
cratic presidential candidate,
played in the turnout that dis
PEELED fears on both sides of
voters apathy.
Both sides contended they
would benefit from the heavy
voting. But with the campaign
oratory stilled and the secrecy
and silence of the ballot box
reigning, only the totals tab
ulated tonight and tomorrow
would determine that.
Heavy Despite Weather.
The extent of voting, despite a
cross-up by forecasters who had
promised cold but sunny weather
In most parts of the Nation, was
indicated by an Associated Press
survey.
In New York, despite rain and
cold, 80 per cent of the registered
voters in Manhattan and the
Bronx were reported as having
cast THAR ballots in four hours.
Election officials said it was the
same percentage as had voted by
that hour in heal weather in the
Mayors race a year ago.
The New York election was
heightened In interest by the
brawling campaign for Governor
between Senator Ives, the Re-
publican nominee, and Ayerell
Hartman, the Democratic can
didate.
In Baltimore election officials
said the balloting was "unex-
pectedly heavy" with main in
terest centered in the guber-
Material race.
Chicago Vote Lively.
In Chicago election officials
said a heavy turnout in the
first hour indicated big vote.
Democrats, claimed this augured
well for Senator Paul Douglas
in his holly contested race with
Joe Meek, the Republican NOM
inee.
In Ohio, where the voting is
highlighted by another close
Senate race between Senator
Burke, the Democratic incum-
bent. and Representative Bender,
Republican, an early rush to the
polls was reported from many
towns.
Early voting in New Jersey
was normal and gaining in in
tensity as rain pelted down in
most areas. Observers at the
polls said the rain did not seem
to be holding down the vote
appreciably, and some districts
reported heavy voting where
there were important local races.
The voters were casting their
ballots in a hot senatorial race
between Republican Clifford P.
Case, 50-year-old lawyer, and
Dem cratic Representative
Charles r. Howell, so, an incum-
bent Congressman.
Heavy early voting also was
reported in most Massachusetts,

Rush in Virginia
IsLike|y 10 Set
0ff-Year Peak
Democrats Attempt
To Unseot BroyhilI
Seen Key Contest
By John v. Homer

A heavy vote that officials
called astonishing" turned out
today in Northern Virginia as
the 10th congressional district
chose between Republican Rep
resentative Joel T. Broyhill and
John c. Webb, a Democrat.
Not even rain and snow fur
ries deferred the voters bent on
settling one of three bitter House
contests in Virginia.
The polling places everywhere
in Alexandria, Arlington, Fairfax
County and Falls Church were
crowded from 6 am. on, and
many election officials predicted
precinct records would be set for
of-year voting before the 6 pm.
closing time.
The 10th district was not alone
as a vote producer. The Associ-
ated Press reported citizens in
the mountainous Southwestern
9th district were trudging to the
polls despite 3 inches of snow
that fell last night and today.
Complain of Rearranging.
Considerable confusion re-
suited because Of the rearrange-
ment of precincts in Fairfax
County. Both the Broyhill and
Webb campaign headquarters
said they had received COM
plants from citizens who were
not permitted to vote.
Mrs. Gladys Isdell, general
registrar for Fairfax, said some
people went to the wrong polling
places and some others were not
listed either on the poll tax rolls
or the registration books.
Any qualified persons was en-
titled to vote, she said, il he
would sign q statement swearing
that he had paid all poll taxes
due and believed himself prop
erly registered. Mrs. IsdeT said
several hundred such forms were
distributed to the county polling
places, but the supply proved
inadequate. During the day. a
number Of other forms were
mimeographed and sent to all
precincts.
Aides Of both Representative
Broyhill and Mr.. Webb viewed
the large turnout as evidence of
impending victory.
The Broyhill- Webb contest
was a headliner in Virginia be-
cause it is one of three House
races in which the Republican
incumbent is seriously chal-
lenged. The Old Dominion is
deciding whether to retain q
divided delegation in Congress
or return to it's traditional place
in the Democratic fold.
Senator Being Picked.
The State also elects a Senator
today but there was no trouble
in sight for the incumbent, SEN
ator A. Willis Robertson, despite
two opposing candidates.
Virginia voters also are pass
ing on a proposal to amend the
State Constitution so localities
