TRAVELING CONDITIONS have changed during

our five and a half years of constant wandering. Ho-

tels have Become better and roads have been immensely improved. We have driven recently for hours over fine highways which, five years ago, were only And nowadays any

But it certainly exists now. In 100,000 miles of (driving we've run out of gas only once. That was [on the desert below Socorro, N.

INDIANA'S DEMOGRATS are caught betwixt and between as a result of Tuesday's amazing state election, which brought in a Republican victory but a

Democrat governor. Most elections usually settle the important question of who gets what jobs. This elec= tion has everybody confused. In the first place, the (McNutt) Reprganization Bill put all the patronage power in the Governor’s hands. Now, with a G. O. P.controlled Legislature, it looks as if the Reorganization Bill will be repealed and all the trimmings, tog, and all the Governor may wind up with is his own office staff. ‘The “trimmings” we mention consist of control of jobs in the Highway Department, the A. B. C., the Welfare Department, etc. Normally, those would come under the Governor, but there's no telling how far a Republican legislature ‘might go after all these lean years. When the Reorganization Act was passed, all the elected officials were Democrats and the purpose of it was to make the State House all one happy family with the Governor ati the head of the table. It was sort of a cushion effect agains factional differences over patronage. The Secretary of State lately has been Republican James Tucker. His whole office staff was picked by the Democratic Governor. his personal secretary. We know some Republicans who are just itching [to do the same thing (only vice versa, of course) with the Governor's office. You can talk about veto power all you like.

Washington

WASHINGTON, Nov. 8—Several important proposals in foreign policy are about to be tried out on public opinion by unofficial groups. If the reaction is favorable the Administration is likely to proceed, although at present it lis uncommitted.

| These proposals will urge the following: | 1. Easing of the Neutrality Act to permit use of American shiping in carrying supplies to England, 2. Easing of the Johnson Act nd of the Neutrality Act to perit direct financial aid to England, ither in the form of loans oy of utright gifts. 3. Furnishing of the secret su-er-bombsight to Britain. 4. Resistance to the Hoover lan for sending American food to German- occupied territory.

That was the method used in building up support for the sending of destroyers to England. After sufficient public approval had béen developed by these private groups, President Roosevelt acted. That is the technique that has been developed during the present crisis. Rarely does the Administration itself take the lead publicly. To launch any roposal as the destroyer deal cold upon the American public, straight out/of the White House, is regarded as too risky. That method tends to stir up immediate resistance, and forces the Government itself to battle with public opinion.

My Day .

WASHINGTON, Thursday—My husband and the poys stayed in Hyde Park yesterday with my mother-in-law. The dedication of the new post office in the village was the one official occurrence of the day. I

left in the morning for New York City, for I had promised to meet Mr. Charles Traussig to talk over the three-day meeting | here of the National Advisory Committee of the National Youth Administration, and also to see Lady Lindsay, who wanted to talk : | over .several things on which we i | have been working together.

At tea, two young men who are

others have developed. smoothly efficient machinery for persuading the American public. The White Committee -has more than 700 local chapters throughout the country. They can be sent into action for a given proposal within a few hours by the simple process of sending out ‘a blanket telegram to all from New York headquarters. Each of these local chapters is a cross-section of its own community, built up regardless of political party lines. Each has access to local press and radio outlets and to local speakers. . These groups work in glose harmony with the Administration. Usually .proposals are discussed informally with President Roosevelt and Secretary Hull before being offered to the public. While it is unfair to say that such proposals have the prior approval of the Administration, it is not likely that these committees, interested in furthering the Administra-

-tion policy, would advocate any measure that met

with disfavor in Washington,

The America First Group

Against these groups supporting the Administration are some opposing groups, notably the America First Committee, of which Gen. Robert E, Wood of Chicago is acting chairman. A few days ago Under Secretary of State Sumner Welles, in a speech here, severely criticized Gen. Wood. Others interested in the America First group are Henry Ford, Alice Longworth, Hanford ‘MacNider and William R. Castle, Undersecretary ot State for Hoover, who is supposed to be generally sympathetic to the America First program. One point on this committee's program is opposl tion to sending ships, planes and materials of war to England or to.any other belligerent, en the ground that it dangerously weakens our own. national defense and threatens to involve the United States in the war. : Strong feeling exists between the William Allen White group and the America First group. The former regards the latter as appeasers and the latter regard the former as interventionists. From these two groups and others like them will come a good deal of the leadership in the battles over specific measures in the field of foreign policy. They serve as the shock troops on their respective sides.

By Eleanor Roosevelt

bers of Congress and many friends were already gathered there. The people of the District of Columbia turned out in great numbers to welcome back the President and Vice President-elect. When we reached the White House, all the members of the household with the ushers, the aids and the Marine band were there to greet us. The front gates were open and the President had to go out under the front portico once before breakfast and once after it to wave his greeting to the people standing outside. Then I went immediately to the opening session of the Advisory Committee of the NYA, returned to the White House for a press conference, and then ran over to the executive office to be with the President when he greeted all the members of the executive office staff. I finally found myself seated with Mrs. Helm to go over the accumulated details of social life, which must now be considered. : I shall quote just a brief excerpt from a letter I received this morning: “I have read and listened to both parties all that I could, and weighed it all with what knowledge and judgment I have. ...I am bound as an American to say that if the people's vote gives Wendell Willkie the office, then we owe him, while he is there, the loyalty, devotion, co-operation and encouragement that is due any man on whom we trust so helivy and frightening a responsibility. I, for one, pray that I may never forget this, my responsibility to our Government.” The people’s vote has been ‘given to.President Roosevelt and the above describes fairly accurately what 1 hope will be: the attitude of all citizens who really love and. serve their country,

‘EXPERTS’ TELL

Canvassing Board Silent, But That Doesn’t Bother Rumor Mongers.

People paced up and down, to and fro, back and forth before the Canvassing Board room today. To coin a phrase, rumors were rife, Here are some of them: Some of the Ausfralian ballots in a North Side precinct had not been initialed by the clerks of election. The voters’ list in a certain Perry Township precinct had not been signed by voters. Someon€ had forgotten to tell them to sign. The tally sheet for another precinct showed a predominant ratio for one pol i party except in two representative races, where it| Ko switched the other way by about the same. ratio.

‘Experts’ Predict What Will Happen

“Expert” legal opinion bandied about the first floor of the Court House had it that: The uninitialed ballots would be thrown out, The Perry Township precinct vote would be counted, although it probdgbly would be necessary to check the registration list to be sure that those checked as voters were properly registered. The tally sheet where the two discrepancies had showed would be accepted and that machines would not be opened except iit case of a general recount, . The expected knowledge of the Canvassing Board and the Court House attaches suffered a reversal of form, with the Canvassing Board giving out no information and the persons hanging around the Court House “absolutely sure” of the victors. The count was so close in the unofficial tabulation of the official returns that a difference or mistake in a few votes could actually change the results.

Machines May Be Moved

No matter what the results were, one rumor that had sound basis in fact was that there would be a recount—perhaps a general one. Democratic candidates, most of whom were shown behind in the unofficial tabulation, were building a fire under a move to make the recount general so-that the cost could be divided. If there is a recount, it probably will mean that the County’s 366 voting machines will have to be moved from the storehouse on Northwestern Ave. to the Court House and opened there by a board appointed by ‘the Circuit Court judge, where a recount suit must be filed. But the most persistent rumor of all was the one about the little old lady who crawled out from under the curtain of the voting booth in an outlying precinct, so she'd be sure her vote counted—and had to crawl back under to open the curtain to certify her vote.

FOR USES HOOSIERS VIEWS ON MEDICINE

Times Special . WASHINGTON, Oct. 8.— Rep. William H, Larrabee (D. Ind.) was credited here today with getting President Roosevelt to go on record against ' socialized medicine during the campaign. This the President did in a speech dedicating the new National Health Center in nearby Bethesda, Md. The dedicatory program was arranged by Wayne Coy, assistant to Federal Security Administrator Paul V. McNutt. . The Public Health Service, which will operate the Center, is part of the Federal Security Agency. An old-time country doctor, Rep. Larrabee was meeting with considerable criticism from the Republican doctors committee regarding the alleged New Deal threat of socialized medicine. So he wrote to Rep. Lyndon B. Johnson (D., Tex.), chairman of the House Democratic

Campaign Committee, and related

his difficulty. Rep. Larrabee urged Rep. Johnson to see what could be done about it. The Health Center speech was

the result. Rep. Larrabee was reelected. :

Gallant Crusade Must Go On, Willis Tells Willkie in Wire

In a telegram to Wendell L. Willkie last night, U. S. Senator-elect Raymond E. Willis, urged the defeated Republican Presidential candidate to continue the “crusade” for the “preservation of our form of Government.” Before leaving for his home-town Angola and a two weeks’ vacation and rest, Mr. Willis asked in his tele-

gram that Mr. Willkie come to In-|.

diana for a vacation that would give him “a new vitality and vigor to continue a crusade” to keep the

people active against “tendencies|

that place our liberty in jeopardy.” Mr. Willis unseated U. S. Senator Sherman Minton, strong New Dealer. The Republican Senator-elect will sit in Washington's Upper House with Indiana’s senior Senator Frederick VanNuys, who defeated Mr. Willis in the last preceding general election. The telegram to Mr. Willkie read n part: our gallant crusade for the preservation of our form of Government must go on. Approximately 21,000,000 citizens look to you for leadership in ‘promoting free enterprise and in serving as a minute man to guard the liberties of the people in a period when concentrated power in the hands of one man may be abused unless people are constantly on the watch.

“1 join you with incomplete :will- |

PROBE ‘VICIOUS’ VOTE-GETTERS

Senate Group to Study ‘Scurrilous” Campaign Pamphlets. 4

WASHINGTON, Nov. 8 (U. P.)— Chairman Guy -M. Gillette of the Senate Campaign Expenditures Committee said today the committee may seek to expose what he called “vicious” types of pamphleteering used in the recent political campaign, He said it ‘was “probable” that the group would request both the Republican and inn National ‘Commit tall publicminded éitizen: he aha send it copies of such “seurrilous” publications as have’ tome. to their attention.’ This type of campaigning—appeals to racial and religious antagonisms and prejudices—was more widely used in this year’s campaign than in any other preceding it,” Mr. Gillette said. “Every fair-minded citizen is concerned with that type of pamphlet which too often has an effect on voting,” he said. “It is often used under cover late in a campaign, when it is too late to combat it. “It is a serious danger to the processes of free government.” Senator Gillette said the problem probably cannot be met by legislation because of constitutional guarantees of freedom of the press, but added that “we can make the public more fully aware of the lengths to which some go.” He said he will assemble his committee as soon as the members return to Washington. A They will canvass all reports on investigations

there is justification to go further.” He said it is “quite possible” additional hearings will be held in New Jersey, but much depends on the condition of the committee's finances. :

KENNEDY DENIES HE HAS RESIGNED POST

BOSTON, Nov. 8 (U. P.).—Joseph P. Kennedy, Ambassador to Great Britain, was ready today to return to London “in 48 hours if an emergency arises.” Mr. Kennedy, who arrived here by plane from Washington last night for a physical examination at Leahy Clinic, said he felt “very | b strongly that the United States should ‘not enter this war by the back : door, the front door, or any other door.” Given a home-town reception by a brass band and friends at the airport, he denied reports that he had resigned. He said he would fly to California Sunday to visit his son John and then return to Boston for a-week before going to Florida for a vacation. He expected to return to England after Christmas unless an emergency arises.

Thousands Write Him

Thousands of those who voted for Mr, Willkie, have written to urge

the New Deal. Many of these letters were bitter. They. appealed to Mr. Willkie to devise some means of translating the policies he ade vocates into action. More than 10,000 letters were received in three mails yesterday morning. and the tenor of all of them seemed the same, Mr. Willkie said. Excerpts from this mail, selected at random with Mr, Willkie's pere mission, said: NEW YORK CITY RESIDENT? “What are we to do now? Must those of us who believe in your ‘crusade’ just sit back and let na< ture (the Administration) take its course? The cry is for a united country, and we all agree that in union there is strength, but must we quietly acquiesce to a leadership whose judgement and intellectual integrity we distrust? Is there any way that the millions of your sup porters can exert any influence? You aroused many of us out of our political lethargy. , . . What can we do? If anything, I want to be in on it!”

Some Urge Co-operation

PELHAM, N. Y., RESIDENT: “I am afraid this is much more seri ous than just another election, I am rolling up my sleeves to begin the fight! Please continue with the same fire and spirit, working against every dictatorial measure and crack« pot scheme that will arise from the New Deal and please, oh please, don’t accept any post with the New Deal. , , . We are still with you, and we have just begun to fight.” There were some letters which urged him to co-operate with the Administration, even to accepting a post in the Government if he is offered one by Mr, Roosevelt, ‘Mr, Willkie’s aids said.,

DENT: “Don't forget us. ... You have done so much for American democracy and God willing can do so much during the next four

ars.” CHICAGO RESIDENT: “You must make the way to continue this fight where you left off on Monday night and not ever concede to co~ operate in their wishes unless they co-operate in ours, , , , There ars many ways to get what you want from - the ‘other fellow carrying a heavy responsibility who is: calling for your help and co-operation. . ,., If we co-operate without concession to our wishes we will be defeated. Now is the time for action to. ob< tain that which we must have ree« turned from the state before we concede anything that the state state wants from us.”

Al Smith’s Speech Recalled

The only precedent for Mr. Wille kie's talk to the nation as a de« feated Presidential nominee was Alfred E. Smith's 1028 address to the Democratic Party urging it to remain “alive and: vigorous,” and counseling Democrats not to let “Pitterness, rancor or indignation over the result blind us to one out« standing fact: - That, above everye thing else, we are Americans.” Mr. Willkie’s manner of announce ing his speech indicated that his might be much more than that. He said his “basic beliefs,” outlined in his vigorous campaign, especially: in the Madison Square Garden speech last Saturday, had not been changed by the election results. At the Garden, he assailed the New Deal for “unlimited spending of borrowed money—the piling up of bureaucracy—the usurpation of powse ers reserved to Congress—the sube jugation of the courts—the concentration of enormous authority in the hands of the Executive—the dise couragement of enterprisz and the continuance of economic dependence for millions of our citizens vpon government.” These, he said, are the methods of the New Deal, “but they are not the methods of democracy. "

ATD RED CROSS—PERSHING ! WASHINGTON, Nov. 8 (U. P.).—~ Gen. John J. Pershing today urged Americans to support the Red Cross during the annual roll call begine ning Nov. 11. “At a time when we heard so much of preparedness,” he said, “it is well to consider the ree sources of human sympathy.”
