SENATOR EDWARDS DEFEATED BY KEAN Hoover Carries Republican Candidates to Victory in New Jersey. By the Associated Press. NEWARK, N. J., November 7.—Sweep~ ing on through precinct after precinct with increasing pluralities, Herbert Hoover carried Republican candidates for State office with him in New Jersey. With more than one-third of the count completed, Hamilton F. Kean, Republican _ candidate to succeed Edward 1. Edwards, Democrat, in the United States Senate, and State Senator Morgan F. Larson, Republican gubernatorial candidate, had accum- ulated leads which appeared well be- yond the power of additional Demo- cratic strength from Essex or Hudson Counties. Republican members of the House of Representatives and of the State Legislature also were leading their opponents by substantial majorities.

Dempsey of New York, chairman of the rivers and harbors committee. & In the new Congress the number of ‘women members will be increased from four to seven, three additional women having been elected yesterday. By a curious_coincidence, the first name of each of these three successful women candidates is the same, Ruth. All of the three are well known because of their accomplishments and connections before they received this honor. They are Mrs.’ Ruth Hanna McCor- mick, daughter of the famous Mark Hanna and widow of the late Senator from Iilinois. Mrs. McCormick has long been known as a leader in Re- publican party affairs. .

FLECTORALVOTE RECORD FORECAST Hoover Likely to Get Greater Number Than Wilson’s High Mark. (Continued From First Page.) great centers of population that Smith had expected to run away with major- |ities the country could not overturn. {In a dozen of the larger cities he had | been accorded popular receptions of a magnitucie difficult to match in Amer- ican political history. * But when the test came the city vote did not flock to him as any of his admirers sup- posed it would. Even in New York City, the home of Tammany Hall and the great rock of Smith’s strength in all his cam- paigns for the governorship, his plu- rality yesterday was, in round num- bers, 430,000. Beforehand his managers had predicted it would be around 600, 000. Neither did the Smith vote in Chicago, Baltimore, Cleveland, St. Louis or Philadelphia take on the Smith ratio predicted for it, although in Boston, probably the scene of the nominee’s greatest reception during the campaign, he received tremendous trib- ute at the ballot box. Party Futures in Doubt. What the election may mean for the future of the two party organizations is a question of great speculation among party chiefs. The great Hoover vote in the South, following the reorganiza- tion of the Republican party in most of the Southern States, leaves for that party an open question of how far it will go in its endeavor to maintain a two-party basis south of the Mason- Dixon line. Many thousands of those who voted against Smith continued to profess their allegiance to the Demo- New CALIFORNIA PRUNES All Desirable Sizes cratic party, and’whether any consider- able number of them can be perma- nently brought within the ranks of a rejuvenated Republican party in the South remains for the coming months to determine. Smith Future at Stake. On the Democratic side lies the whole question of what can be done to rejuve- nate a party which took the punishment it suffered yesterday, on top of two pre- vious crushing defeats in the Republic- an landslides of 1920 and 1924. Wrap- ped up in this problem is the question of Gov, gmlth's continued leadership. That leadership was opposed at the Houston convention by many party wheelhorses of that same solid South on which the party had depended for years to pro- vide the nest-egg of sure Democratic strength _in a national election. After the nomination was made, many of these wheelhorses turned out and worked for the ticket. Others did not. | Gov. Moody of Texas, gave an indication | of a possible storm to come when he | declared last night that the result of | this election was attributable to the methods injected into the campaign by Chairman_ Raskob, Smith's {riend and personal choice as a campaign manager. These are problems which will be| months and perhaps years in the solv- | ing. Today, Republican leaders the | country over were too pleased at the | mounting Hoover totals to give much | thought to what is to be done tomorrow, | and the Democrats too stunned to turn their attentions very far into the future. i Birds Build Nest in School.

CLEAR Will Carry State by 100,000 When Final Vote is Announced. By the Associated Press. ST. LOUIS, November 7.—Herbert Hoover carried Missouri by a wide mar- gin in Tuesday's election and apparently swept the Republican nominees for United States Senate and governor along to victory with him. With three-fourths of the State's vote tabulated today, the Republican presi- dential nominee's lead over Gov. Alfred E. Smith stood at 96,848, with indica- tions it would easily exceed 100,000. Hoover piled up an overwhelming lead of 108,730 votes out-State and Smith failed to get the leed in St. Louls that his supporters expected. The New York Governor led by only 11,882 votes, with 572 of the 640 St. Louis precnicts in The vote with 3,123 precincts of the 4,293 in the State tabulated was: Hoo- ver, 572,886; Smith, 476,038. Roscoe C. Patterson, Republican nom- inee for United States Senator, appar- ently had won also, having a lead of | 28,132 votes, with 3,087 precincts tabu- lated. Patterson’s lead out-State was school, then reared their family, often feeding them while a lesson was being given below.
