‘SO-50,' CLAIM BY DEMOCRATS IN NEWENGLAND Half of Six States Will Swing to Roosevelt, Is Prediction. By Rcripp*-H owned Sevctpaper Alliance HARTFORD, Nov. I.—With the Democrat* claiming a 50-50 split of the six New England states, this staid and white-steepled section is seeing one of the bitterest and most picturesque battles of the national campaign. The Democratic leaders insist that between them A1 Smith and Governor Roosevelt have won Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Rhode Island. Although not conceding Maine, Connecticut and Vermont to the G .O. P., there is private acknowledgement that only a record sweep w.ll overcome normal Republican majorities. Strange issues and interesting personalities figure in the lastminute struggle. Many emloyers in this heavily industrial section are urging the re-election of President Hoover. The Democrats are calling on a vote for Roosevelt in the name of A1 Smith, and 1928 issues are unspoken but underlying influences. A large vote is forecast for Norman Thomas and such a conservative as J. Henry Roraback, Connecticut G. O. P. political and power executive, is encouraging that swing in the belief that it will cut into the Democratic vote. Divided on Massachusetts

Opinions are divided about Massachusetts, but a survey through western sections make it look hopeful for Roosevelt. The Smith admirers apparently have been won back to the Democratic fold. The Springfield Republican, long a Republican Bible in the rural Berkshires, and erstwhile supporter of Ccolidge and Hoover, has declared for the New York Governor. The bad spots for the Democrats consists of apathy among the women. who swung to Smith four years ago, and the Republicans’ intensive campaign. In New Hampshire, the Democrats are in better shape than reported. National Chairman James A. Farley openly has conceded this state to the G. O. P., but Roosevelt’s hope rests in a lean, dark-haired French-Canadian named Henry Ledoux, who has been nominated for Governor by the Democrats. It is the first time people of that race have been so honored, and they mdke up 32 per cent of the voting population. Democrats Claim Rhode Island If the predicted outpouring for Ledoux occurs, it may not only give New Hampshire so Roosevelt, but also defeat Senator George Moses, who faces ex-Governor Fred Brown, an old-time major league baseball player. Moses is receiving plenty of money and local backing from textile and dye interests, however, and is putting up the fight of his career.

While Brown plays a cautious game, seeking to antagonize no group, Moses is standing by his stanchly Republican record. Robert H. Jackson, secretary of the national Democratic commit4ee, rad a native from the granite state, insists it will be found in the Democratic column. Smith and other Democrats claim Rhode Island, but the Peck-Met-calfe machine is waging its usual hard battle. The Republicans, irked by the 1928 defection, hope to swing it back. Their strongest allies are the manufactuiers and the business men. A close vote, with the result a question mark, is a fair forecast.

Hot Connecticut Contest The most ding-doi.g contest is taking place in Connecticut. The Democrats are trying to re-elect Governor Wilbur Cross, with the odds against them, carry it for Roosevelt and defeat Senator Hiram Bigham. The latter is opposed by Representative Augustus Lonergan, Hartford, and Cross by Ex-Governor John H. Trumbull, father-in-law of John Coolidge. Right now it looks as if Hoover would win, but the two other contests are a toss-up. Cross is having a hard time, but there may be a chance to defeat Bingham. Thomas is expected to poll a large vote in the hard-hit cities. Tiy? annual insurgent movement against Roraback, headed by professor Albert Levitt, is the unknown factor. Levitt is runing for Governor as an independent, and professor Milton Conover of yale is his independent nominee for senator. Bingham Is Assailed If this group takes from 10,000 to 20,000 from the Republicans, it may cut Bingham’s political and power machine within the party and primary, and this is the first field attack on the veteran leader. Bingham is depending almost solely on his wet record and activities. But the Democrats are assailing hi 6 whole record, especially his successful introduction of Charles Eyanson, secretary of the Connecticut Manufacturers’ Association, into secret meetings of the senate finance committee when it was considering the Hawley-Smoot tariff bill. Nonskid surfaces are restored to smooth-worn ttres by a machine which cuts grooves in the treads.

Leaders Warn Nation of Plots by America Against Expansion

This unique news map shows the progress of Japan's teftitorial expansion in the Orient, with the dates the various areas were acquired, and also the relative positions of United States and Japanese naval bases in the Pacific. It shows that Japan and her possessions, fence-

This Is the second of two stories on the situation in the Far East, describing what has happened since the warfare at Shanghai nearly a year ago. Today’s story outlines relations between Japan and the United States. By NEA Service. AMERICA'S friendship for China in the latter’s present difficulties with Japan, evidenced in the Shanghai incident, has done nothing to improve relations between the two great Pacific naval powers. With the United States approving the Lytton commission's recommendation that Japan disgorge the fruits of her military conquest in Manchuria and the whole matter scheduled to come before the League of Nations assembly Nov. 14, the situation takes on added interest. Two developments stand out: 1. The Japanese people, controlled by militarists and gripped by a war hysteria, are convinced that sooner or later their nation will be attacked from across the Pacific. 2. The United States Atlantic fleet, sent to the Pacific for spring maneuvers about the time of the Shanghai trouble, still is in that ocean. Also there, of course, are the Pacific fleet and the Asiatic squadron. Recently, Admiral Richard H. Leigh, commander-in-chief of the battle fleet, was given wider powers of a scope unique in peace time. He was accorded full command of the two vital naval districts in Hawaii and the Canal Zone with “supervision of all administrative details affecting the fleet” independent of the navy department at Washington.

tt tt tt THE main body of the fleet now rests at anchor in the harbors of San Diego and San Piedro, with defensive units of cruisers, destroyers and submarines in Panama and Hawaii. This authority theoretically, at least —would permit Admiral Leigh to order the navy’s big dreadnaughts to Hawaii or Panama on a moment’s notice. Failure of the United States to withdraw its Atlantic fleet has provoked the Japanese almost as much as this government’s support of the Lytton report. Washington has let it be known that it will not recognize the “independent republic” of Manchukuo or any other gains that Japan wins by force of arms. Gripped by an economic depression worse than that in America, the Japanese people have turned blindly to the militarists who promise to lead the nation out of its troubles. For a long time these leaders have fed the people with rumored threats of an attack from across the Pacific. Japanese distrust of America is shown in recent public utterances. Addressing the Diet, Kaku Mori, one of the leaders of the powerful Seiyukai party, declared: “It is impossible to expect improvement in our relations with the United States; they are likely to become worse.”

tt tt tt GENERAL NOBUYOSHI MUTO, commanding Japanese officer in Manchuria, declared: "Should anybody attempt to obstruct solution of the Manchurian question, we should be obliged to combat such interference relentlessly, no matter who they may be.” Lieutenant-General Sadao Araki, minister of war and real leader of the government, declared: "The United States loudly professes to champion righteousness and humanity, but what can you think when you review its policy in Cuba, Panama, Nicaragua and other Latin-American nations? ■ . .

WOMAN OF 82 UNERRING SHOT Film Shows Amazing Feat With Pistol.

Back to the days when Calamity Jane and Annie Oakley were noted pistol-toters and crack shots, there was another two-gun woman who had a wide reputation down in Texas—Mrs. Mary C. Hettinger, now a resident of Tiffin, O. She’s 82 years old today, but still is a pistol expert, and she proves it in the current issue of The Indianapolis Times-Universal Newsreel by popping electric light bulbs from the hip at fifty feet. Incidentally, the bulbs are held in the hands of her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Graham McNamee, ace of radio announcers and the screen’s talking reporter, describes the feats and prowess of this remarkable woman. McNamee reports many other important and interesting events, including the “hunger march” of unemployed men and women from all parts of Britain into London, and the ominous scenes attending the aftermath of the fatal unemployed roits in Belfast. The reel also includes the demonstration of an automatic bridge table which shuffles and deals the cards by electricity; scenes of the recent international fair at Vienna, and the annual sheep drive of 60,000 animals from the mountains to lowland pastures in the state of Washington. Escapes Abduction Attempt Miss Mabel Thornhill, 14, of 1221 West New York 'street, a Manual high school student, escaped Monday from a man who attempted to force her into his automobile at Missouri and Washington streets. The man was about 30. His car bore Ohio license plates.

A RECENT example of the spy scare hysteria came when the Tokio branch of the National City Bank of New York ran into serious trouble with the government while taking photographs of the city for publicity purposes. The war office made the accusation that the pictures were actually for use in case of American air raids over Japan. Later, the foreign office announced it attached “no blame or suspicion.” A recent American movie based on the exploits of navy fliers, created a sensation when it was shown in Japan. Its title, “Hell Divers,” was changed to “The Bombing Corps of the Pacific” and it was “sold” to Japanese audiences as an example of the naval efficiency of a dangerous rival. And what of China’s future course if the League of fails to evict Japan from Manchuria? China—vast and weak, but with traditional Celestial patience has a method all her own.

The Japanese military campaign has been costly to Tokio. The nation has been forced off the gold standard, the yen has sunk to less than half its par value. For the first time in history, Japanese securities are lov/er than Chinese, and the government is at its wits’ end as to how it can pay foreign loans due this year and next. JAPANESE taxes have multiplied several times over (from 50 to 60 per cent of taxes goes for war purposes), but reveflues are far down.

There is a gaping deficit in the national budget, the trade balance is off 250 million yen, millions of Japanese workmen are unemployed, and whole provinces of peasantry are living on grass roots. The Chinese boycott against Jap-anese-made goods still operates, despite the terrible punishment at Shanghai, and industrial Japan must look to China’s 400,000,000 people for the bulk of its trade. Despite its military success, the conquest of Manchuria has been an economic failure. Many millions of yen have been poured into that venture, and almost nothing has been returned, as the region still is in chaos. Japanese army authorities in Manchuria estimate it will take them from five to seven years to establish order .... And China, weak but very patient, is convinced that Japan will be bankrupt before that time. (THE END)

SECURITY FOR AGED POOR BIC ELECTION ISSUE Republican Party Platform Silent on Pensions; Roosevelt for Plan. BY MAX STERN Tldifb Staff Writer WASHINGTON, Nov. I.—With the Republican party platform and nominee silent on the subject, and the Democratic platform and candidate openly advocating old-age pensions the question of security for the aged poor is becoming an important issue in next Tuesday’s election.

This point is made in the November issue of The Old-Age Security Herald, organ for the American Association for Old-Age Security. This organ says that old-age pensions have merged “as one of the principal issues which will "sway the decision of the electorate.” Governor Roosevelt and Norman Thomas both have stressed the need for old-age security. Roosevelt has made it part of his campaign program. Roosevelt Backs Plan It was Roosevelt as New York’s Governor, who urged and signed the state pension act in 1930. Under this law, 52,000 of New York’s aged poor have been pensioned. Lieutenant-Governor Herbert H. Lehman, Democratic candidate for Governor of New York, is running on a state platform advocating continuation of this method of old age relief. Roosevelt has made no statement as to his attitude on federal aid to old-age pension states, such as is provided for in the Dill-Connery bill. The authors of this measure, Senator Clarence Dill (.Wash.) and Representative William P. Connery (Mass), both are Democrats. Bound by Platform Democratic Governors, like Governors Wilbur Cross of Connecticut, George White of Ohio and Democratic senators, like Wagner of New York and others, are ardent advocates of the pension plan. Democratic candidates are bound by the old-age pension plank in the Democratic platform. State party platforms of New York, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Indiana and Minnesota make special reference to old age security. In Michigan and Missouri both major parties advocate pensions.
