FINAL RETURNS NEW DEAL POLL

Roosevelt Regime Approved By Over - 8 To 25 One State, Bankers - Oppose Plan. _

More than 3 out of 5 are in favor of the New Deal, as shown by the final returng of the Literary Digest’s nation wide poll on Roosevelt’s acts and policies the tabulation of which will be published. Vermont is the only one of "the forty-eight states registering" disap-~ proval which it does by the majority of 53.62 per cent. : e The number 'of votes cast totals 1,772,163 which are reported received from every seéction in the nation ‘including the District of Columbia. The final vote is 1,083,752 or 6115 per cent for the New Deal to 688,411 against it. v : A comparison of the ratio of the final returns in favor of Roosevelt’s acts and policies with the popular vote ratio he received officially in 1932, indicates that he has increased ‘his strength 3.83 per cent since his election. : ’ The voters in the poll were asked to indicate for whom they voted in 1932. 459,338 of the poll voters indicate that they have changed thein minds about Roosevelt since his election. An analysis of this switch.ng shows an average gain for Roosevell in the forty-eight states of 5.39 per cent. The same analysis indicates that Roosevelt has incurred net losses of support among the voters in this New Deal poll in twenty states and nét gains in the other twenty-eight states since 1932. : The larger losses are tallied in the South and in the agricultural sections while the larger gains are_noted in the New BEngland and eastern industrial states and those on the Pacific coast. The greatest switch from Roosevelt is shown in South Carolina and the greatest switch to him over 14 per cent, in California. =~ . : In the six special polls that the Literary Digest conducted among bankers, clergy, 'business men, edutators lawyers and physicians all groups vote in favor of Roosevell’s acts and policies except the bankers, i The bankers vote 13,795 to 12,528 against the New Deal. o
