Sept. 25— Wendell Willkie’s mosh striking gains as compared with 1936 Republican strength have been made among the so-called “independent” voters, a group overwhelmingly for President Roosevelt in the last Presidential election. That fact stands out today at the conclusion of a nation-wide factfinding survey by the American Institute of Public Opinion’ Political leaders have long held a healthy respect for the “independ-

In stressing the importance of, concentrating on registration, party leaders point out there's no use making "a lot of speeches and trying to win votes unless the voters are registered and entitled to vote. With registration out of the way —there are only 12 days left— candidates on the local tickets will be turned loose for a whirlwind campaign.

Barrage for Schricker

Republican speakers are “going to, town” on Lieut. Gov. Henry F.| Schricker’s | statement that he! doesn’t propose to ‘buy his way” into the governorship. ] His Republican opponent, Glen R. Hillis, speaking at Gary last night, took that statement as his text. Mr, Hillis declared that “while the New Deal candidate for Governor gives lip service to good govern- | ment, the New Deal state chairman appeints the head of the Alcoholic Beverages Commission chairman of the finance committee to raise funds for the New Deal campaign. “And by a strange coincidence, other membersvof the committee include four holders of state beer wholesale permits and a state rep-

board. “The New Deal Party has a mon- | opoly on the beer business in In-| diana and now a deliberate effort {is being made with the consent of |

[the party's candidaté for Governor |

from the recipients of favoritism in| the State House beer racket. . .. “And with the commission chairman holding down the front posi-| tion, the real job of shaking down | the license holders is carried on by | that former excise director, Paul | Fry, who flourished in the port-of- | entry days when it was only nec- | |essary to go to the telephone to! make the money pour in. “Does the New Deal candidate |for Governor care to identify the money power behind him and let! {the people judge what obligation the would be under to giye a third term to the rackets?”'

ent” vote, but not too much has been known heretofore about its size or voting habits. The Institute's survey makes three major points clear in the current campaign: # 1. One voter in every five (20%) regard himself as an independent— without definite party allegiance. Easterners and Westerners, farmers and city people, these voters will hold the balance of power in November, since neither’ the Republicans nor the Democrats have enough “regular” party members to carry the election unaided. : 2. Where as the independents reached in the Institute survey were 76 per cent for President Roosevelt in the election of 1936, only 51 per cent with definite opinions at this stage of the race say they will vote for Roosevelt again. Mr. Willkie, with 49 per cent of the independent vote today, is 25 percentage points stronger with these voters than was Governor Alfred M. Landon. 3. Furthermore,a substantial number of independents (18%) say they have not yet decided how they will vote. 2 Today in six key Northern and Western states, accounting for 153 electoral votes, independent voters with opinions divide as follows: ROOSEIndependents ~~ VELT WILLKIE New York 49% Pennsylvania .... 62 Ohio. .......¢004p0 72 Illinois .....c000.s 46 Michigan ........ 33. California ....... 52

But 22 per cent are undecided in New York, 20 in Pennsylvania, 19 in Ohio, Illinois and Michigan, and | 16 in California. . ® | Mr. Willkie needs to win an even larger share of the independent vote than he holds today, the

Democrats considerably outnumber ‘regular’ Republicans.. Voters in the survey were asked: “Do you consider yourself a Republican, Socialist,” Independent or Democrat?” The replies were:

Demograt .......ciceirecnee Republican ...... Independent ............ Socialist and all others

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

On the basis of the Presidential vote in 1936, this means approximately 9,000,000 independent voters today—or| about 12,000,000 when the total eligible population is considered. Institute surveys show that the independent bloc is not a stationary one, however. Voters are constantly moving in and out of it—some toward the| G. O. P., others toward the Demaqcratic Party. .
