lOWA ELECTION ISSUE IN DOUBT AS VOTE NEARS Acrimonious Campaign Is Waged; G. 0. P. Hopes to Regain Power. Hg ( ni'nt Prrtt DES MOINES. Ia , Nov 2 —One of lowa's most bitter election campaigns drew toward its close today with the issue so greatly in doubt that nobody but a rabid party worker would venture more than an uncertain guess on the outcome. Several campaigns have been more spectacular, but perhaps none more acrimonious than that which has this normally Republican state for the last five months. Observers who have been able to keep their heads above the whirlwind of counter accusations feel that the governorship race will be settled on perhaps as narrow a margin as 40,000 votea; that no matter which party elects a Governor, the eight lesser state offices will be split among the two parties, and that the Republvans, now in possession of three congressional seats, probably will gain another, possibly two. Goaded by two lean years—the first in three generations—as the minority party. Republicans have attacked the Democratic administration from the angles of administrative policies, patronage and private lives. The partv in power has been content for the most part to point to its record. To accuse Republicans of offering no constructive program of their own. and to climb on the coat taiLs of Democratic expenditures for relief and reconstruction with the insinuation that if Democracy is defeated, federal bounties will cease. The result is an uncertainty among the electorate which still wavers only six days before election in spite of the mast intensive campaigns ever sponsored in this state. Outspoken in denunciation of Governor Clvde L. Herring's regime is Dan W. Turner. Republican exGovemor campaigning for return to

STAFFS WILL CONVENE Mimeographed Papers’ Workers to Meet in Danville. Staffs of mimeographed school papers will hold a conference at Central 'Normal college Saturday, Nov. 10. at which representatives from schools of Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky and Illinois will attend. Speakers will include Dr. Waldo Wood. Central Normal college, president; J. M. Niswander, Thelma Beeslev, LaPorte; C. Wayne Shumaker. J. Wvmond French, and Claude Mahoney. the office from which he was pulled in the Roosevelt landslide. He has accused the Democratic party of organizing an ‘ lowa Tammany.” He has stumped the state charging that "hundreds of lowa youths of tendei age” are getting drunk each night He accuses Governor Herring of kinship with Upton Sinclair of California in sponsoring “state socialism.” The big surprise of the campaign is that it is being fought almost entirely on state issues. Except for relief w hich Republicans assert is not an issue—the G. O. P. has shunned the "New Deal” despite repeated hammering by Governor Herring for an outspoken commitment. Republicans are silent concerning corn-hog checks of $75,000,000 and other millions dispensed by alphabetical agencies. The Democratic re-election plea Ls primarily a record of accomplishment; establishment of an old age pension system which went into effect today; creation of state liquor control; reduction of state departments to rigid budgets; econortry, and passage of a tax plan which ed ■ sales tax and levied individual and corporate income taxes, thus offsetting property taxation to such an extent that there will be no state levy for 1935 and none for the last six months of this year. Little attention has been paid to four minor parties. Prohibition, Farmer-Labor. Socialist and Communist, all of which have qualified full state tickets. Observers feel that the Farmer-Laborites probably will poll the highest of the four, but will be lucky to get 50.000 votes.

Baltzell today has under advisement # the motion by District Attorney Val Nolan to dismiss a suit brought by three southern Indiana cane chair factories to have the NRA declared unconstitutional.

Fred Hoke, state NRA compliance director, and Ira M. SnoufTer. state industrial board chairman, be enjoined from prosecuting the companies for alleged NRA violations. Mr. Nolan asked that the suit be dismissed on the grounds of insufficient allegations. Judge Baltzell ordered both sides to file briefs so that he may reach a decision within the next three weeks. The semi-wild~Chukchi herds of deer in Eastern Siberia are not strong enough to support a man.
