FINAL APPEALS LEFT 70 RADIO Religious Issue Has Provided Campaign With Most Bitter Ingredients _/ PROHIBITION ROILS DRIVE Tariff, Prosperity, Farm Re- lief, Water Power, Immigra- tion Other Issues By BYRON PRICE (Associated Press Staff Writer) In quieter mood after weeks of agitation and uncertainty, the nation is taking final counsel today over its choice of new leadership in to- morrow’s general election. The long parade is almost ended. Its greater and lesser figures have turned homeward, leaving in the lap of the voter the tangled threads of an epochal campaign. The un- tangling of the complex impulses of class, race and religion remains for the more orderly processes of the ballot box. The final words of the nation-wide debate fall to the two men upon whom its responsibilities have rested most heavily. From his home at Palo Alto, Calif. after his trip across the continent from Washing- ton, Mr. Hoover will speak over the radio tonight to the nation’s millions of voters. Two such addresses were decided on by Governor Smith—a noonday talk today to the farm country, and a valedictory tonight, both delivered from a radio studio in New York City. Otherwise, the day was set aside as_a final breathing spell for can- didates, political workers and voters, disturbed only by the repercussions which are peeeee to the day before election. These included last-minute arguments here and there over tration and the ‘policing of places, and the usual outpouring predictions of overwhelming victory on both sides. State Election Activity In a few places activity continued among contestants for congressional, state 2nd local office; for, besides choosing a new. president’and vice president, the country will elect to- morrow the full membership of the house of representatives, 37 sen- ators, 34 governors, legislatures in many states, and a host of city, county and township officials. The issues of the national contest remain, at the end of the cam) . a patchwork of striking contradic- tions. The Associated Press has asked hundreds of political leaders, editors, and prominent men and women in business and professional life, distributed through all of the states, for information as to topics of campaign discussion which have been most prominent in their particular localities. The results of this survey, summarized below, show how the issues have cut across party lines, and across one another. This summary does not purport to list all of the issues discussed, or to name them in the order of their importance, Religion Whatever its relative rank in terms of votes, the religious issue has provided the cam with its most bitter ingredients. Every state in the union debated it, some- times to the accompaniment of e; rages and legal proceedings. It has been talked of most openly in the south. Democratic leaders repeatedly have charged that religion was the real force behind the southern bolt The Republican nation- al organization has repeatedly de- nied raising the issue against Gov- ernor Smith’s Catholicism, and charged that the Democrat tht to belittle the Quaker faith of Mr. loover.
