Votes in Hyde Park After| Closing His Campaign With Prayer.

HYDE PARK, N. Y., Nov. 5 (U. P.) —President Roosevelt, alone in a green-curtained election booth for 68 seconds, voted today for the third term and four more years of life for his New Deal. Seeking to end the two-term tradition that has persisted for a century and a half, Mr. Roosevelt cast his vote in the Hyde Park Town Hall, polling place for the third Hyde Park voting district.

292d to Vote

From the campaign of 1896. ~

If you think the “New Deal” idea was originated by Franklin ‘D. Roosevelt in 1932, you've got another think coming. They were having “New Deal” campaigns away back in 1896, as this campaign button indicates., J. Frank Hanly, a Republican, in 1896 was making an unsuccessful race for re-election to Congress on a pledge of a “Square Deal” and a “New

He will continue to be this nation’s greatest peace-time President.” The decision of the voters today, he said, “has to be right.” “During the next four years the fate of Europe for the next century will be determined. And what happens here tomorrow is to have a lot to do with what happens in Europe.”

Smith, a Willkie backer, and retired to his apartment. | In his final appeal, before a Ritz] Theater crowd and a nation-wide] radio audience, Mr. [Willkie said that a “free way of life can be preserved in America only if we become a united people.} “For T's years we have had dis‘cord, and we are having discord at a time when we look across the seas and see that it was discord and weakness from within that caused the democracies of Europe to colapse hefore totalitarianism,” he continued.
