~ Growing G.O.P.

Belief in Comeback

Half of Voters Expect Republican Presidential Vietory; Rise Sharp Since Nov. 8 Successes; More Democrats Are ‘Doubters.’

By DR. GEORGE GALLUP Director. American Institute of Public Opinion NEW YORK, Nov. 23.—Republican successes in the recent election have brought about a s riking increase in the number of voters who think the G. O. P. will win the Presidency in 1940. Nation-wide surveys [taken by the Institute twice in the past year

The Institute’s surveys, taken in September, 1937,

April, 1938, and

today, asked voters the question:

“Which party do *you think will win the presidential election in 1940—Democratic, Republican, Socialist or some other party?” A trend is clearly evident in the following compari-

While the election results played their part in influencing opinions about 1940, nevertheless other factors also were mentioned by the voters. Many said they felt “the public wants a change from time to time,” or

“people get tired of the same party. Those who think the Democrat

1940 declared, chiefly, that the Democrats have built up an organization which “can’t be torn down as early as 1940.” Others declared that even if the election is close, the “party in power gets the breaks.”

five inches. Six inches was reported near Crawfordsville, while in the area between Indianapolis and Greenfield the depth was froin four to five inches. Little snow was reported in the southern districts of the state. Thirty-five trucks were being used to remove snow and ice from downtown streets, Fred K. Eisenhut, street commissioner, said. He said the street department would make every effort to keep streets in good condition, but urged motorists to be careful until the work is com-

pleted. 100 Work on Streets

‘Mr. Eisenhut said he did not think sewers either downtown or in outlying areas would be overloaded when [the snow melts. He said snow being cleared from downtown areas was being dumped in the Washington St. sewer, largest in the city. Graders ordinarily used in surfacing roads are being used to aid the corps of more than 100 men clearing the streets, according to Michael O’Brien, chief streets inspector. Meanwhile, the Mayor's office stated that no WPA labor would be used this year in ridding the streets of snow. City automobile traffic was slowed by the slick streets. Icy pavements were blamed for two minor traffic accidents reported overnight to police. No one was injured in the crashes, police said. Railroad officials said the weather had had little effect on traffic and’

that trains were running on or within a few minutes of schedule. Indiana Railroad interurbans were operating on time, although heavy snow was reported on the Indianap-olis-F't. Wayne Division. All east and westbound airplane flights through Indianapolis were cancelled last night and early today, Municipal Airport officials said. The Atlanta-Chicago plane was unable to land at the airport last night because of weather conditions. A snowfall of 44 inches on the airport runways was reported. Police reported that the weight of snow and ice broke cables at Pine and Harrison Sts. No damage was reported. The weather was blamed for a 4-foot cave-in in the middle of the intersection of 53d St. and Broadway. Police rerouted traffic around the break. No serious fires due to the cold were reported.

Weather Will Encourage ‘Walking Off’ Heavy Meal

CHICAGO, Nov. 23 (U. P.).—The weather will be “just right” for a

brisk walk after that heavy Thanksgiving dinner. U. S. Forecaster C. A. Donnel

predicted today that “clear and crisp” weather will prevail tomorrow over almost the entire nation. Mr. Donnel said Lake Michigan, which keeps Chicago cooler than most of the surrounding territory during the summer, rescued the city last night from snow flurries and low temperatures which struck south of here.

islature or by a quo warranto proceeding. Quo warranto proceedings, it was explained, can be filed by a candidate contesting the other person's claim to the title of the office. Mr. Armstrong said such a proceeding could be brought either by a successful or an unsuccessful candidate. He also said a comparison of the statutes of 1881 and 1921 showed “no substantial difference.” Pointing out that if the phrase “any candidate” in the 1881 Act refers to state candidates then the additional phrase “recount of all the ballots cast in such an election” also means that the contest would be based on the recount from 92 counties, Mr. Knight said that there is no direct reference in the 1881 Act to a State ticket candidate as such. Edward D. Koenemann, Evansville, who was defeated by James M. Tucker, Republican, for Secretary of State, is the only Democratic candidate not joining in the petition which names as respondents Circuit Court judges of Marion, Lake, Vanderburgh, Vigo, Vermillion, Clark and Franklin Counties. Declaring that “this proceeding does not involve an objection to a contest which would re-examine and recount all of the ballots cast,” the petition questions the right of defeated Republicans to ask recounts in specific counties. The petition concluded that the act of 1881, which provides for recounts in counties using paper ballots, does not apply. to State offices, since there is nothing else in the act which has reference to State offices, even though the words “any candidate” are used. “The fact that no machinery is provided which could possibly operate to count all of the ballots in the state, compels the conclusion,” the petition said, “that there was no legislative intention to have all of the ballots counted, and just as forcefully compels the conclusion that there was no legislative intention that the word ‘any’ should be construed as including State candidates or any other than local candidates for whom votes were cast in the territory within the jurisdiction of the court (a circuit court) only,” the petition said. If a broad construction is put on this act, the petition declared, “the statute does no more than give a circuit court . . Jurisdiction: to count all of the ballots cast in the entire State for the offices in question.”

The petition was filed by Albert

However, the High Commissioner has sent some of his furniture to the old homestead “to give ‘it plenty of time to get back,” the letter said, according ’to Mrs. McNutt. “He hasn't sent any of his personal things back yet,” Mrs. McNutt said. “He himself doesn’t know when he will start back and the letter was just a personal one.”

Segragation Forecast With Later ‘Extermination.’

BERLIN, Nov. 23 (U. P.). — The Government today levied a fine of 20 per cent on all Jewish property holdings of more than $2000. It was believed the means whereby the Government will collect its $400,600,000 fine on the Jewish community at large. Foreign Jews were exempt. The levy will be exacted from Jews who are either German subjects or without citizenship. The levy must be paid in four installments, each amounting to 5 per cent of the valge of the property. In cases of mixed marriages only the property of the Jewish partner will be taxed. But the non-Jew must stand surety for payment by the Jew.

Specific Dates Set

The installments must be paid by Dec. 15, Feb. 15, May 15 and Aug. 15. ns The official gazette contained the new decree today. Property liable to the levy will be assessed on the basis of the registration of Jewish property ordered by decree last April. However, changes which have occurred since registration must be taken into consideration and liabilities deducted. The decree further provided that the levy would be exacted only in cases where assets exceed liabilities by more than $500. The decree also provided that insurance claims on property damaged in the Nazi rioting, which normally would have been paid to the Jews, were/ to be immediately turned over to’ the Government as part of the levy. The decree calling for the original fine had stipulated that these damages were to be confiscated as part of the fine. Today's decree provides that insurance companies pay the Jews who must immediately turn the money over to the state. Ghettos Predicted Meanwhile, Das Schwarze Korps, organ . of the elite Storm Troop guards, forecast the imminent segregation of German Jews into ghettos. Following segregation, the journal foresaw the “extermination” of all German Jews, “by fire and sword” if necessary, unless they left Germany, The editorial was said to be the most bitter anti-Semitic declaration since the Nazis took power. It called upon the United States and Great Britain to save German Jews from “destruction.” It was published coincident with the first of a series of nation-wide Nazi meetings called by Propaganda Minister Paul Goebbels to proclaim intensified action against Jews. . It followed publication of Great Britain's plan to resettle some German Jews in British colonies and delivery of another United States note to the foreign office asking assurances that American citizens would be exempt from new antiJewish measures.

Proposes Jewish State

Das Schwarze Korps said that the only solution of the Jewish question was the formation of a Jewish state abroad. In this, it said the United States and Britain should take the leading part. Referring to Jews still in Germany, Das Schwarze Korps said: “The Jews must be driven from our houses and residential districts. They must be settled in a separate status and in blocks where they will be among themselves and have the least possible contact with the Germans. “The Jews must be awarded a

special emblem. They must be de-

prived of the right to own houses or real estate.” The editorial predicted that Jews thus segregated would be excluded from profitable occupations. This would soon tie up their capital. Then, Das Schwarze Korps said, “in keeping with hereditary instincts they will become criminals.” “When this stage is reached we would be faced with the hard necessity of exterminating the Jew underworld by methods which we and our orderly state always use in dealing with criminals—fire and sword. “The result would be fatal to the Jewry of Germany—that is total destruction. Denounces Democracies

“Those in foreign countries who believe they could stay this inevitable development by raising monotonous cries or by blackmail and threats only show they have learned nothing since 1933.” Das Schwarze Korps then denounced the democracies for protesting against persecution of the Jews. “Their threats always are the same, except that since the Czech crisis they weigh no more than a cardboard sword. Their methods of political blackmail are the same if they declare they are unable to make a peaceful settlement with Germany.” An increasing shortage of certain foodstuffs was noted by German housewives today.”

Alaska Viewed as Possible Refuge

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23 (U. P.). —Secretary of Interior Ickes today suggested the possibility of .considering Alaska as a haven for refugee Jews from Germany or other European nations. Mr. Ickes pointed out that Alaska is the only United States possession which has not been fully developed. He added that he favors doing everything possible to assist refugees. The Secretary limited his suggestion to a proposal of Alaska’s possibilities as a haven.
