able and beautiful to be neglected. So-called society leaders and blue bloods, us they prefer to bo called, but in most cases jußt plain ordinary snobs, are conducting whispering campaigns against President Roosevelt, according to an article in a current magazine. They don't like the way the President took several of the big boys to task and routed the money changers. The more they show their hand by trying to block the President In mapping his program for the people and common good the stronger he will become throughout the country. Today, it's a good sign to have the ultra rich and idle society mongers against you. — —————— L THE COUNTRY APPROVES OF ROOSEVELT POLICIES: More than 3 out of 5 are In favor of the New Deal, as shown by the final returns of The Literary Digest’s nation-wide poll on Roosevelt's acts and policies, the tabulation of which will be published in today's issue of the magazine. Vermont is the only one of the forty-eight States registering disapproval which it does by the majority of 53.62 per cent. The number of votes cast totals 1,772,163, which are reported received from every section in the nation, including the District of Columbia. The final vote is 1,083,752, or 61.15 per cent, for the New Deal to 688,411 against it. A comparison of the ratio of the final returns in favor of Roosevelt's acts and policies with the popularvote ratio he received officially in 1932, indicates that he has increased his strength 3.83 per cent, since his election. The voters in the poll were asked to indicate for whom they voted in 1932. 459,338 of the poll voters indicate that they have changed | their minds about Roosevelt since his election. An analysis of this switching shows an average gain for Roosevelt in the forty-eight States of 5.39 per cent. The same analysis indicates that Roosevelt has incurred net losses of support among the voters in this New Deal poll in twenty States and net gains in the other twenty-eight States since 1932. The larger losses are tallied in the South and in the agricultural sections while the larger gains are noted in the New England and and eastern industrial States and those on the Pacific Coast. The greatest switch from Roosevelt is shown in South Carolina and the greatest switch to him, over 14 per cent., in California. In the six special polls that The Literary Digest conducted among bankers, clergy, business men, educators, lawyers and physicians, all groups vote in favor of Roosevelt s acts and policies except the bankers. The bankers vote 13,795 to 12,528 against the New Deal. Os the 24.859 votes received from the ministers of the nation, 13,513, or 54.356 per cent., mark their ballots in favor of Roosevelt's acts and policies "on the whole.” The poll of the business men shows 56.23 per cent, of the 54,688 voting as in favor of the New Deal. 67.20 per cent of the 13,953 educators, 53.19 per cent, of the 34,695 lawyers and 56.83 per cent, of the 43,728 physicians forwarding "straw’’ ballots also vote in support of the New Deal. Another special poll conducted among the undergraduates of seventeen American colleges and universities gives a majority of 65.35 per cent, for the New Deal. An analysis of how the same students voted in 1932 shows that Hoover "carried" thirteen of the seventeen colleges as against Roosevelt "carrying" all of them now. o Vet Opens Pool With Dive Clay Center, Kan.—(U.R)—Charles Wingrove, 89, Civil War veteran and aid to the national commander of the Grand Army of the Republic, inaugurated the new swimming pool here with a well executed dive.
