Political Prediction How will the election go next Tuesday in Adams and Wells counties? This is a natural question as people become more interested in the election, just a week awax. The Bluffton News-Banner, an independent Republican newspaper, basing its predictions on the past record, predicts that the Democrats will sweep every office in the county, as they have in off-year elections for more than a decade. Ron Ross, according to reliable sources in Bluffton, has waged a very effective, vigorous campaign in the county, and will undoubtedly carry against E. Ross Adair, Republican incumbent, who has carried the county only in the presidential years of 1952, 1956, and 1960. In 1950, Adair lost Wells by 838, by 10 in 1954, and 1,044 in 1958. All indications are that he will lose by well over a thousand in 1962 while running for his seventh term. The picture here in Adams county is pretty much the same. The Democrats will sweep every local office, in spite of the hard campaign waged by several Republicans. The Cuban situation will undoubtedly mean a larger turnout of Democrats, and a heavy vote to back a strong foreign policy — the policy of our President, and the first strong policy in a decade. Is the prediction of a Democratic victory based on facts and past actions, or on “wishful thinking” by Democrats? Let’s look at the record. The last off-year election was 1958, when the Gallup polls had the Democrats ahead nationally by a slightly lower majority than it now has them ahead. In that year, the Democrats carried every county office, and by 382 for Congress, Fleming over Adair. In 1954, the p icture was practically the same. The Democrats carried every county office, lost Congress (Fred Greene was the Democratic candidate, and he carried only Wells county, and by 10 votes) by 382 votes, and lost the state representative race, Yager over Kruse, by 535 votes. . j In 1950, in the face of overwhelming antiTruman activity, the Democrats carried every county race in Adams county, voted 946 over Adair (who was narrowly elected to his first term at that time) for Ed Kruse, and even gave Alex Campbell, candidate for senator, a 237 vote majority, one of the few counties he carried in the state. Every indication is that Adams county will vote strongly Democratic this time, carrying all county and state offices. They will maintain the Democratic majority among the 12 trustees, and may even win all 12, although this is more doubtful. Editorial Writer Today Dick D. Heller, Jr.

Election Preview By UPI Writers

(EDITOR’S NOTE: This is the first of a series of dispatches by UPI political writers previewing the Nov. 6 elections. It deals with the crucial race for the House —a race that largely will determine the fate of the Kennedy legislative program for the next two years.) By VINCENT J. BURKE United Press International WASHINGTON (UPD — President Kennedy’s hopes for a more liberal Congress will be riding election day on the outcome of about 100 little-publicized contests for seats in the U.S. House of Representatives. Although nationally known senatorial and gubernatorial candidates probably will claim the spotlight, Kennedy’s legislative lieutenants will be watching results of House races between candidates who are relatively unknown outside their own districts. For two years the House has imposed the brake on the New Frontier’s legislative proposals. With the election of a liberaltinged Democratic Senate almost certain, the big question is whether the House in the new 88th Congress will be more conservative, less conservative or remain at approximately its present balance. Most of the 435 House seats at stake are relatively “safe” for the party now holding them. The outcome will depend on elections in about 100 doubtful, or swing districts. During the last two years the party lineup in the House has NOTICE OF ADMINISTRATION Estate Ns. 5779 In the Adams Circuit Court of Adams County, Indiana, Notice is hereby given that Eata J.

been: Democrats — 263. Republicans — 174. Ones Which Count For the White House, however, the significant figures have been 217-212, 215-205, 202-167 and 219196. These are the margins by which Kennedy won four and lost one of his closest struggles on the House floor in the 87th Congress. In the new Congress which convenes on Jan. 9 there will be two fewer seats. The House membership, boosted temporarily to 437 with the granting of statehood to Hawaii and Alaska, reverts to its permanent size of 435. The party in power almost always loses House seats in midterm congressional elections. Not since 1934 has the President’s party gained seats in such elections. The average result in midterm elections dating back to 1912 has been a loss of 39 seats for the President’s party. Republican leaders publicly claim they have a good chance of winning the 44 seats they need to control the House. But their private assessment of prospective gains falls far short of that figure. Hopes For Upset Kennedy has publicly expressed hope of upsetting the historical trend by picking up 5 or 10 new Democratic seats. Privately, Democratic strategists would be happy to hold their losses to 5 seats. The significant fact is that Republicans do not have to win party control of the House for conservatives to gain a headlock on Kennedy’s legislative program. A Republican gain of 20 or more House seats would unquestionably give GOP leaders and conservative southern Democrats the whiphand. Conceivably, a GOP gain of as few as 10 seats could significantly boost the power of the conservative bloc. On the other hand, should the election result in little or no net shift in the party line-up, administration forces probably would be stronger in the House in 1963 and 1964 than they were during the past two years. This is because the Democrats which the South elects this year almost certainly will include more Kennedy supporters and fewer Kennedy foes. In a few scattered primary elections, conservative Democratic incumbents were defeated this year by moderate or liberal southerners. In addition, reapportionment of House seats among states will result in some “liberalizing” of the Democratic party’s southern wing in the House. Seats Re-Schuffled The Houseseats at stake this year have been reapportioned to reflect relative changes in state population during the 19505. The 11 states of the old south-

era Confederacy wound up with the same number of seats. But some of these to conservative rural areas were eliminated and some new districts were carved out in areas with more liberal constituencies, including Tampa, Fla., and the Miami area. In the North as well as the South the result of reapportionment will be to give greater voice in the House to city-subur-ban voters and a smaller voice to the nation’s declining farm population. California with a gain of 8 seats will elect 38 representatives to the House, more than any state except New York with 41. Florida gained 4 seats. Seven Other states each gained one seat Sixteen states lost seats. The re-shuffling of seats has assured a big turnover to House membership. It caused collisions between incumbents thrown into the same districts. Five were defeated in incumbent vs. incumbent battles in the primaries and similar contests will unseat seven more on Nov. 6. A good many veterans decided to retire rather than seek re-elec-tion in newly mapped districts. They included Reps. John Taber, R-N.Y., dean of congressional Republicans with 40 years service, and Brent Spence, D-Ky., chairman of the House Banking Committee, who at 87 is the oldest man in Congress. Republicans Hear Hunter And Adair Judge Donald Hunter and Congressman Ross Adair spoke to an overflow crowd at Republican headquarters Saturday evening. They spoke on world affairs. Adair will return Thursday to attend a luncheon for Senator Homer Capehart. The public is invited. 20 Years Ago Today Oct. 30, 1942 — Two valauble milk cows owned by Julius Brite were killed by an Erie freight train at the railroad crossing on U.S. 224 west of Decatur. At least 25 persons were killed when a tornado struck Berryville, Ark. Dr. and Mrs. James Burk attended the international medical assembly in Chicago. A sound picture of the British Air Force in action was shown at a joint meeting of the Decatur Lions and Rotary clubs. A lull is reported in the battle for the Solomons between American and Japanese forces. I Modern Etiquette I By Roberta Lee I Q. I’m a man who recently was seated in a booth in a restaurant
