Election Forecaster Louis
H. Bean advised Democrats
yesterday not to "sell short"
the results of next weeks
election, even though most
experts are predicting a loss
of Democratic Congressional
seats.
His analysis, based on
trends in past years, indicates
that Democrats should gar
ner about SIS per cent of the
votes cast, Mr.. Bean told a
luncheon at the Woman's Ma
tional Democratic Club.
This should result in the
Democrats holding their own
in Congress, the forecaster
said guardedly. If the Demo-
cratic percentage should be
as high as 81 per cent, as a
Gallup Poll has indicated,
Democrats should gain "a
few more Seats" Mr.. Bean
added.
Even more guardedly, Mr..
Bean predicted that Gov.
Edmund CPat") Brown prob
ably will defeat former Vice
President Nixon for the Cali
fornia governorship.
The Cuban crisis probably
will have no great effect on
the outcome Of the election,
Mr.. Bean said.
The only precedent for
such a crisis in the middle Of
an off-year election occurred
in 1850, when the Korean
conflict broke out, the cleo
ton analyst said.
That situation, although it
was fraught with many ups
and downs which left the
country quite baffled," and
seemed likely to evoke strong
reactions from the voters, &C
tually had no noticeable eff
feet on the election, he said.
If the Democrats do hold
their own or gain a few seats
in Congress, it will mark the
second historical deviation
from the rule that the party
in control loses seats in an
off = year (non-presidentiaD
election, Mr.. Bean noted.
The first exception &C.
CURED in 1884, he said, two
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1962-10-30

years after Franklin D.
Roosevelt was first elected
President.
He thought last spring, Mr..
Bean said, that the special
circumstances which had re-
suited in the 1884 Democratic
upsurge might prevail again
this year.
Roosevelt was elected in the
height of the depression in
1882 at a time when almost
anybody could have won," the
speaker said. But many citi-
zens and many political
scientists had doubts about
him"
BY 1884, he continued,
Roosevelt had demonstrated
that he had what it takes to
be President. He met bust
nesSmen and labor leaders on
their own terms. He showed
he could control Wall Street
and the Congress. I think the
people forgot that they had
doubted his ability"
Something similar" hap
pened again in 1861, Mr..
Bean suggested. President
Kennedy won by a very small
margin, and many people had
doubts about him-partly be-
cause he was a Catholic, part
ly because he was so young"
But "by early 1862 very
few Of us looked at Kennedy

Mrs. Kennedy made her
first social appearance here
last night since the relaxing
Of the Cuban crisis.
The Presidents wife at
tended briefly a dinner given
by Secretary Of the Treasury
and Mrs. C. Douglas Dillon,
which took place at the State
Department.
Mrs. Kennedy arrived at
the State Department at 7:45,
wearing a smart silk cocktail
dress of emerald green.
The dinner was in honor
Of members Of the Interna-
tional Council of Art at the
Museum Of Modern Art which
is based in New York. About
140 members with their hus-
bands or wives attended the
party. The membership is
made up Of persons from all
parts Of this country as well
as some from abroad.
In a strange twist Of fate,
the First Lady's appearance
would not have been possible
If it had not been for the
Cuban Crisis.
Dinner Scheduled
A White House State Din
ner had been scheduled for
last evening in honor Of the
Grand Duchess and the
Prince of Luxembourg. how
ever, their State visit was
cancelled after the crisis de-
veloped.
The billions greeted their
guests in the beautifully ap-
pointed Benjamin Franklin
room Of the State Depart
ment. Much of the rooms
beauty is due to the billions
contributions Of art objects.
Earlier in the day the Pres
ident substituted for his wife
in greeting the group.
Originally members OF the
council were to tour the
White House at noon and
then meet with Mrs. Kennedy
for sherry in the State Dining
Room at 1920.
Buffet Luncheon
The White House an
nounced that the First Lady
had been "unavoidably de-
tanned" in Middleburg, where
she and the children had
spent the week end and that
she would be unable to fulfill
the commitment.
It was reported that
her delay in returning to
Washington was due to the
fact that she had been out
hunting with the Orange
County Hunt.
Therefore the President did
the honors himself. He met
the group Of about 140 in the
Rose Garden before they

Taxpayers Can

Damage Losses

The President has declared
Delaware a disaster area as a
result of the storm which be-
gan March 6, of this year. Loss
es suffered by property owners
in this storm may be claimed
as a deduction on the 1861 or
the 1862 federal income tax re-
turn, at the taxpayers election.
A taxpayer who has already fill
ed his 1861 return may amend
that return or file claim on
Form 843 to reflect the storm
loss deduction. Recognizing the
plight of persons who are vic
tins of this disaster, the Inter-
nal Revenue Service will expe-
dite refunds for 1861 due these
taxpayers. To assist the service
in this effort H. L. Brown, dis
trict director, asked that tax
payers entitled to a refund be-
cause of these losses, securely
attach to the front of their or
iginal or amended 1916 returns
or their claim, a statement that
a disaster loss is claimed. Docu-
