MAMMOTH JOB FACES PRESS NEXTTUESDAY News Association Organizes to Tell Vote Story of Balloting. By United Press NEW YORK, Oct. 31.—Next Tuesday the most complicated problem of news-gathering which confronts the American press, that of covering a presidential election, will plunge the newspapers of the country into some forty-eight hours of activity concentrated to the highest degree. Telling the news of a championship prize fight, of a disaster at sea, or of the flight of a Lindbergh, all have their complications. But compared to the reporting of a national election they have the advantage of being confined to fairly definite localities and can be watched from one to a score of definite localities and can be watched from one to a score of definite news sources. In a national election every precinct in every county in every state !n the Union must be covered. To organize this coverage requires the services or close cooperation of literally thousands of persons. The burden of the task of building up this vast organization falls upon the press association, which has tl:9 invaluable assistance of its member newspapers in every section of the country. Courier Used Sometimes When the polls close next Tuesday, in every precinct the count will begin and as this count is completed it will be telephoned, telegraphed, or, in the case of remote precinct?, sent by courier to the county seat. At the county seat there will be a man a work whose task it is to keep count of the returns from th? precincts in his country, and transmit the totals to the nearest United Press bureau. At the bureau, men with tables prepared in advance, adding machines and other equipment, receive these returns from the counties it their state, tabulate them just as the man at the county seat tabulated the precinct figures, and will thus compile the totals for the state At regular intervals these state bureaus or headquarters will send out over the general wires of the United Press, the figures showing how the count in their state stands at that particular hour. These state bulletins speed over he wires to New York where tablea dealing with the stataes instead of counties or precincts as units, are kept by another staff of men and constantly watched by the United Press political writers. Send Out Bulletins These reporters, who have been i following the campaign since it began, constantly compare the figures and study the trend of the count, At intervals of aoout an hour they prepare the “general leads”—the new stories which sum up the results reported through the intricate network of wires which penetrate to the most remote corners of the nation. In each state bureau of the United Press other men will tabulate in the same manner the returns for members of congress, for the United States senate, for Governor, and in other contests which are local to the states or to the cofigressional districts. The method and the organization is the same as for the national election. When the election of a Governor, a congressman or a senator is made certain, the news will be bulletined over the general wires and will reach New York, where tables covering such offices also will be kept. Other political writers watching these tables, will record whether congress is to be Republican or

OIL PROMOTER TRIES SELLING WRONG MAN “Bone Dry” Law Drafter Receives "Sucker” Letter. “Kill this locust of indecision today and success and freedom from financial worries are yours.” This was but one of the glittering phrases used in describing the opportunity to buy $25 oil stock on the installment plan outlined in a closely typewritten six-page letter received today by Frank Wright. Wright is auditor of the Indiana securities commission, but his greatest fame is that of author of the Wright "bone dry” law. Maybe it was the latter that landed him on the “sucker list,” he says. At any rate this letter describing opportunities from the time of Mohammed and the mountain on down to the present, was turned over to Earle Coble, chief examiner for the commission.
