ABOARD S. S. WASHINGTON, Off Mexican Coast, Sept. 9.—Now we are far out of sight of land, and it is getting hotter than a stove lid, and the sea is beautiful and calm, and we just sort of rumble

along hour after hour. Most of the passengers have now recovered from the red paint they spilled on themselves while decorating Los Angeles. Everybody has his deck chair, and the sitters-next-to-each-other are starting to get acuainted. The deck stewards serve ice cream around 11 o'clock, and around 4 it’s cakes and tea, and at 4:30 there is a movie in the main lounge. The movie today was “The Sea Hawk” and I went in but didn't like it, so I left and hanged myself to the halyard. The promenade deck is the main congregating deck on this ship. The deck is very wide, and the deck chairs are along the back wall. The forward part of the deck is enclosed. There is a sign saying that seven times around the deck equals one mile. Most of us passengers hate exercise, so there isn't a great deal of walking. But this morning I was up at 7 o'clock, when not more than three other passengers had opened their eyes. So I started walking around by myself, and got to going so good I decided to walk the whole mile. This afternoon I'm about to collapse.

A Glimpse of the Interior

Inside this deck are the big public rooms. ing from the front we have: 1—The Palm Court, just a big room full or easy divans and chairs and palms. This seems to be for the quieter people. In the afternoon the orchestra plays concert music here. 2—Back of that are a couple of stairways to the lower deck. On one side is a tobacco shop, and on the other side a gift shop. 3—Next is the biggest room of all, the grand salon. It is very fancily furnished, and you could sit all day here with hardly anybody seeing you. It is in here they show the afternoon movies, and play

Inside Indianapolis (And “Our Town”)

ONE OF OUR BIG downtown firms had an acute case of the jitters the other day. Lawyers were bustling around, peering into legal books and going into whispered huddles. The cause of it all, an accountant, just sat at his desk, calmly working crossword puzzles and reading magazines. It seems that the accountant went to work for the company on a monthly salary. Just recently, the firm posted a notice that the monthly basis was out and that everybody would henceforth be paid on an hourly basis. You couldn't expect an accountant not to work it out himself. He jotted down all the figures and went over them. Then he raised a fuss. He charged that the new basis deprived him of a vacation with pay and that, furthermore, sick leave was on his own time. It was illegal, he claimed. He raised such a furore, they fired him. He refused to be fired. That's right. He wouldn't leave What's more, he filed charges against the company with the National Labor Relations Board. The lawvers went to work to decide on whether he had a job or not. They said he hadn't. Nuts, said the accountant in effect and went right on working word puzzles. Finally, up to his desk strode a party of four, his boss and three of the huskiest gents you ever saw. “Look,” said his boss, “vou've been fired. I want you to leave peacefullv. If you won't He glanced at his companions. The accountant studied his visitors for a good minute. Then he got up, put on his hat and walked out. Probably decided that big figures were just a little too much.

Washington

WASHINGTON, Sept. 9.—Everyone is volunteering reasons why the Willkie campaign has not come up to expectations. My unsolicited contribution is that Willkie is a victim of circumstances beyond his control Most of the criticism cancels itself out. Some say Willkie is too New Dealish, tco * much like Roosevelt, while others say he is too reactionary. He is : urged to go after the independent ¢ Democratic vote that went to Roosevelt in 1932 and 1936, and then a lot of Republicans are hurt because he doesn't wrap himself more tightly in the robes of the grand old party. Grumblers are saying Willkie talks too much, but they would be the first to complain if he didn't show up on Page One every day. Anything he does or fails to do is wrong. because campaign isn't going well. the time Willkie was nominated in Philadelphia, 1 popular pressure was forcing him in over the rosty resistance of the delegates, Willkie said he was “in front of a trend.” His trouble now is that the trend is in front of him. A superman out of office is no match for a superman in office in these times. What chance has a candidate, with the best technique, against a President of the United States, in such a time as this, who goes about every week-end inspecting defenses and having photographs taken for the newspictures and newsreels displaying the smiling candidate in front flanked by lines of marines, framed against a background of waving flags? What chance has any technique against Presidential “non-political speeches” which are displayed even by pro-Willkie newspapers headlines reading: “Roosevelt Urges Unity to Prepare Defense.”

There's Humor in It The White House says Mr. Roosevelt doesn’t know vet whether his speech to the teamsters’ union a few days hence will be political or non-political. That is unny. even to the New Dealers who tell you that President Roosevelt is conducting the slickest political campaign that was ever staged. They are correct.

My Day

HYDE PARK, Sunday—I have read in the newspapers that people have been donating their blood to England to use in transfusions for wounded soldiers. Somehow, it seemed that had nothing to do with me, until someone asked me yesterday if there was anything I could do to bring it to people's attention. It appears that a cablegram has come from Dr. John Beattie, chief of the British Army Blood Transfusion Service, to the American Red Cross, requesting 10,000 pints of blood in the next four weeks. This would represent 20,0006 donors. I imagine the Red Cross headquarters anywhere will be able to give one full information later on, but for the present I am told, greater New York is the only place where the hospitals

bingo and the mechanical horse races at night, and even take up the rug and dance on nights when it is raining. 4—Next is the library and writing room. They have lots of books, and we have taken out Vincent Sheean’s “Not Peace but a Sword.” There are many writing desks, always full of beautiful stationery. I have stolen quite a bit and put it in my handbag. 5—Next is the smoking room. This is the place, my iriends. Here is where the good fellows get together. Where the prettiest girls sit with their sweeties. Where the sportier set plays cards for real money. And where a few marvelous souls with cynicism in their eyes sit and try courageously to drink themselves to death. In this smoking room are two slot machines. Both are quarter machines. No nickel or dime stuff on this boat. And you'd be surprised what an all-day banging those machines get.

Dining Under the Stars

We saw one man put in $65 worth of quarters to get back $25. This is once I'm glad to be a tightwad. The dining room is on C-deck, four decks below the public rooms. There are two elevators, with uniformed attendants, to take you down. You eat breakfast from 8 to 10, lunch from 1 o'clock on, and dinner from 7 on. Instead of chimes, as on most ships, they announce meals with a bugle call. People eat lunch in sports shirts and slacks and even in shorts. Or you can eat every meal in your room if you want to, and there is no extra charge. Down on E-Deck is a beautifully tiled swimming pool. It isn't awfully big, but people splash around and have a good time. And nearby is the gymnasium. At night, starting around 9:30, the orchestra sets up on the open after-deck, and the stewards put up card tables and chairs, and somebody scatters soapflakes on the deck. And then people dance and drink under the tropic stars, with the swish of the sea all about them. They dance and talk and are gay in their bright evening clothes. Often they dance till 2 in the morning, and when they finally go to their cabins, a steward is waiting to get them a_ late sandwich if they want it. Yes, folks, luxury is wonderful, and darned if I don’t recommend it.

Co.'s new electric eye water fountain has the customers a little confused. . . . It operates just like the door on the Haag Drug Store at 22d and Meridian and when vou stoop over it, the water simply starts gurgling up at you. . . .

He was holding stakes on a $100 bet. . . . Mrs. J. B.

Even poor old tongue-tied Coolidge, who was a good politician but the world’s worst political spellbinder— next to Hoover—took his re-election in 1924 with the greatest of ease. He just went solemnly through the motions of being President. Against him was one of the smoothest lawyers in the United States, John W. Davis, the Morgan lawyer. Davis was then in his prime as a favorite in the courts and could talk the Supreme Court around to his idea any day in the week. But when he tried his persuasive arts on the public, they went completely sour. He was as ineffective on the stump as Landon. He was ineffective because he was behind a trend. Landon was ineffective because he was behind a trend. Hoover, as President running for re-electon, was ineffective because he was behind a trend, instead of in front of it.

Gallup Finds G. O.P. Far

By Dr. George Gallup

PRINCETON, N. J., Sept. 9.—As political observers wait to see how “Maine goes” in the general elections there today, a statewide survey by the American Institute of Public Opinion reveals that Wendell L. Willkie and other Republican candidates are leading their Democratic opponents in the state by wide margins. Maine—the Institute's last-min-ute checkup shows—is still the most Republican state in the Union. If the voters were balloting on the Presidency, as well as on state and national officers, the Institute's figures indicate that Wendell Willkie would receive 59 per cent of Maine's vote, to 41 per cent for Roosevelt. This means a five-point gain for Roosevelt in the past fortnight. In the two principal contests being decided the Republican candidate for the Sovernorship, Sumner Sewall, is leading Fulton Redman by a substantial margin, and Republican Ralph O. Brevster is leading Louis J. Brann for U. 8S. Senator. The final figures as of Saturday: For Governor Sumner Sewall (Rep.) Fulton Redman For Senator Ralph O. Brewster( Rep.) . 62% Louis J. Brann (Dem.) .... 38 ” = ” AINE'S SEPTEMBER ELECTIONS have long been regarded as the starting-gun of the November Presidential race two months later, and the high commands of both parties will scrutinize the results in Maine with special care. History shows that the old political maxim—“As goes Maine, so goes the nation”—is true only with reservations. Four years ago the Democrats carried 46 states although the Republicans had carried Maine in September. In recent years it has been truer to say that, when the Republicans won Maine by a landslide the nation went Republican in November. On the other hand, when the Democrats win in Maine, or when the Republican majority is

Spending Issue Detoured Today the trend overwhelmingly favors a President | in office. Any President would benefit by it in this) time of national crisis if he showed any disposition to] act at all. Rooszvelt is a President made to order for! this political situation. He plays it for everything there is in it. Issues that normally would have shaken him seem | to lose their force under the stress of the period. Spending? What can Willkie do with that issue when the whole country, including himself, is for the heaviest kind of defense expenditures. It is a gigantic public-works project which is already beginning to spread prosperity. Ladies are buying 20 per cent more furs, in some cities, than a year ago. Defense and prosperity. Who is worrying about the budget? Who cares about Roosevelt cutting corners to make a deal with Britain over naval and air bases, so long as we get such added defense? Thinkers may "well be disturbed at much that is] happening, but what chance has a thought in these | times? Who cares about the third term? The Republicans have barely mentioned it. There is a trend but it is in the direction other governments have followed in times of crisis, in the direction of strong personal government. The trend | 1s to be the man of action. Roosevelt, on his Presidential throne, personifies that role. It leaves Willkie just another fellow on the outside, talking his head off while events march on, paying him no heed.

There is a grim article on Poland in Friday evening’s P. M. Among the list of things which they give as happening just now in Poland, the first item: “All men and women between 16 and 47 must register for work in Germany,” is a little reminiscent of the days when we sold slaves in this country and divided families, sending them to new masters in different places. It is quite true that there is no place in Nazi culture for a man like Paderewski. No wonder his statue has been removed by them from Poland. Yesterday was a most beautiful day. I had a ride and a swim and worked two or three hours. At 4 o'clock, the teachers from the three new consolidated schools came to tea at the big house. It was a great pleasure to have an opportunity to meet them, for I am away so much that I really feel I know little of the constructive forces in my community. I always feel that teachers are among the most important influence in any community. In the evening we all attended Secretary and Mrs. Morgenthau’s annual clambake. It was cold, but the big bonfire looked warm and we all wore plenty of warm garments and went into the house later to dance. This morning I rose early to ride, and we all went to church. Later we had a group of guests at luncheon, :

City-owned utility is bound by a 99year lease executed by its predeces-

sor company. The petition was taken to Washington by Patrick J. Smith, repre-

senting his law partner, William H.

Thompson. attorney for the utility. The formal filing will not be completed for a day or two because of the necessity of obtaining a signed copy of the record in the case from the Circuit Court of Appeals. In its adverse ruling, the Appeals Court in Chicago reversed the decision of Federal Judge Robert C. Baltzell a year ago in which he found the predecessor company was without right to enter into a lease binding the City as its successor. The lease, executed in 1913, gave the old Citizens Gas Co. the right to use mains and properties of its former competitor, the Indianapolis Gas Co. Its terms called for an annual lease payment of more than a half million dollars a year. When the City took over the Citizens firm in 1935, it declined to be bound by the terms of the lease, which it termed excessive, and the litigation ensued. While the case has been in court, the lease payments have been held in escrow in a bank. A plan for the City to acquire the Indianapolis Gas Co. properties by condemnation has been held up awaiting a final decision in the case. The lease covers about half the mains used by the utility.

“Barometer States’ are Divided 50-50

One of the oldest political maxims in U. S. history is that “As goes Maine, so goes the nation.” A state-wide study

by the Gallup Poll indicates that Maine is likely to go Republican in today's general elections.

But Institute research

also indicates that Maine is a “barometer” of national trends only with reservations—that the states of Ohio, Maryland and New York together form a far more reliable index of national sentiment. Above, how these three barometer

states would vote today.

a small one, the nation has gone Democratic. Even if the Democrats lose in Maine today they can take some comfort from Maine's recent record. In fact, Dr. Louis Bean of the Department of Agriculture has estimated that—on the the basis of the 1936 vote—about 20 percentage points need to be added to the Democratic vote in Maine to derive the approximate Democratic vote in the naation as a whole. If 20 points are added to Roosevelt's vote in Maine today it gives him 61 per cent for the nation as a whole. The same relationship between the vote of Maine and the nation as a whole may not obtain in 1940, and the latest Institute studies indicate that the Democrats are about 15 points weaker in Maine than throughout the country—rather than 20 points. The vote at the present time is: % Favoring Willkie Roosevelt 59% 41% 49 51

Maine Only United States ...

ONSTANT RESEARCH by Institute statisticians into the political and economic records of the 48 states and their more than 3000 counties has indicated several other states which are far better “barometers” than Maine. Indiana, for example, has been, on the average, within 2! per centage points of the nation’s vote in every Presidential race since 1884 excluding years when there was a large third party vote West Virginia, Ohio, Maryland, Illinois and New York have had almost as good recerds as indicators of the national temper. But the Institute's studies show that possibly the best barometer of all is a combination of the vote of three states—New York, Maryland and Ohio, giving each of the three an equal weight. If between 1884 and 1936, a political observer had known how these three states would go he could have predicted the nation’s vote with an average error of only 12-5 percentage points. Here is the record of the last five decades, excluding years when

a third major party was entered in the Presidential election:

But we are free men and women-—not the hypnotized serfs of a slave state. We have the power of thought and action and decision. We must use those powers now and use them without stint or measure. We must make freedom as living a thing to us as it was to the men who founded this republic : and this democracy. We must have union. For the issue is not the horror of war or the blessing of peace. The issue is not a third term for Mr. Roosevelt or a first term for Mr. Willkie. The issue is whether we mean to stay a free people and Lo - hand that freedom on.

How political tides may shift in the remaining two months of the campaign remains to be seen. Institute studies in 1936 showed a very close race between Roosevelt and Landon in midsummer and early September, but by the eve of the election they showed only three states “sure” for Landon.
