- . - ~ - 2 * INPRESSIVE GAIN 1S MADE BY WETS Democratic Policy Scores Triumph; Roosevelt Boom Certain. BY MARK SULLIVAN ©Of all the interpretations of this elec- tion, one of the clearest is that the wets have made impressive gains. The mean- ing of this wet advance is more con- crete_and convincing with respect to the Democratic party than with re- spect to the Republicans. The present wet party managers of the Democratic party who have carried the party thus far on the wet path undoubtedly feel that the cutcome has Justified their course, 'They have elect- ed a wet Democratic Governor of New York by the largest majority ever given 8 gubernatorial candidate in :hat state. ‘They have elected e wet Democratic Senator from Illinols by a majority al most incredible in such a normal Re- publican stronghold. They have elect- ed a wet Democratic Senator from Massachusetts and have thus given that state for the first time in its his- tory two Democratic Senators. They have elected a wet Democratic Senator in Ohio. In Pennsylvania they have come close to electing a wet Democratic Governor in a state that has nov elected & Democrat in 40 years. Roosevelt Boom Certain ‘The sum of these and other advai tages won must be looked upon as ju tifying the present wet national man- agement of the party. The future course plainly suggested to them is that they nominate Governor koosevelt for President in 1932 and continue forward on the wet path. Almost cirtainly that course will be followed. It will be said that the dry South will be an obstacle. ‘The fact is that the Democrats are able to straddle prohibition successfully be- cause of the geographical distance be- tween the two wings. The wet Demo- cratic North is able to march shoulder to shouldér with the dry Democraiic South because they co not interfere with each other locally. On Tuesday no dry Democrat in the South deserted his party because the Northern wing is wet. Similarly, no ‘wet Democrat in the North deserted his party because the Southern wing s dry. ‘Thus far everything seems prosperous for the Democrats. If, however, we consider what has happened in its bearing on a solution of the prohibition question, there is less promise. If there i8 to be repeal of the prohibition amendment, the repeal must start in Congress. Prolfibition Troubles Seen. The Democrats appear at this writ-| ing to have elected about 210 members of the House out of a total of 435. When these 210 hold their first caucus their troubles about prohibition will and the country will realize the solution of the question is still distant. More than half of the 210 Democratic Representatives will come from the ar- dently dry South and from dry rural portions of the North. In short, it is difficult to imagine the Democrats in Congress agreeing among themselves on ' hibition or having any clear policy king to a change in the present status of prohibition. ~s This, however, will not appear for 13 months, because the Congress now elected does not take office until De- cember, 1931. In the meantime “and for the present the Democrats will go forward on the theory that the party is wet and that Gov. Roosevelt must be their nominee for the presidency. (Copyright, 1930.) o 24 G. 0.

WASHINGTON. {ELLIOTT'S DEFEAT ROBSD.C. = - ALUED FRIEND IN HOUSE Public Buildings Head Fur- T thered Much Important Legislation. McLeod May Succeed Zihl- man as District Com- mittee Chairman. One of the election fatalities of spe- cial concern to the National Capital is the defeat of Chairman Richard N. Elliott of the House Committee on Public Bulldings and Grounds—in the sixth Indiana district. Representative Elliott is credited with being the father of the public building program for the District and he put through the bills purchase of the triangle south of Penn- sylvania avenue to the Mall as a site for the new Federal bulldings, for the new Supreme Court and House Office Buildings for additions to the New National Museum and City Post Office Buildings, and for the Capital park development. By virtue of his chairmanship Repre- sentative Elliott was a member of the Public Buildings Commission, of the commission to enlarge the Capitol grounds, the United States Supreme Court Building Commission and the Arlington Memorial Bridge Commission. Of course, now that these important permanent public improvement projects are so well advanced the defeat of Re- presentative Elliott will not imperil the great development program. Under the seniority rule his successor as chairman of the Public Buildings Com- mittee will be Representative J. Will Taylor of Tennessee, who has been re- elected. McLeod May \Replace Zihlman. ‘With the defeal of Chairman Fred- erick N. Zihlman\of the House Dis- this position is Representative Clarence J. McLeod who has been acting chair- man during practically the entire time of the present session With his youth and devotion to the interests of the Capital City, backed by his experience during the present session, Represen- good administration as “Magor of the District”, as the chairman of the House District Committee is sometimes called ‘The defeat of Representative Albert Hall of Indiana and John W. Palmer of Missouri make two other vacancies in the Republican membership of the House District Committee to be filled in the new Congress—more than a year hence. ‘The advancement of Representative Wallace H. White of Maine to the United States Senate, causes a vacancy in the chairmanship of the Merchant Marine and Fisheries for the new Con- ress. The ranking Republican is Rep- resentative Prederick N. Lehlbacl, who is already chairman of the House Civil Service Committee, so that Mr. Lehl- bach would be forced to choose between these two important committees. Another Chairmanship. ‘The withdrawal of Representative E. Hart Fen of Connecticut, chairman of the House Census Committee, opens that chairmanship also to Representative McLeod, who would have to choose be- tween that committee and the House District Committee chairmanship. thought that Representative McLeod will prefer the chairmanship of the District Committee, espscially because he has been making an intensive study of ‘the District affairs and is interested in putting through a program of bene- ficial legislation. Mr. McLeod led the reapportionment fight, and sincz his success in forcing the taking of a new census, his interest in the Census Com- mittee work has dwindled. The defeat of Representative Ed M.

Karch, a Demo- crat, will vacate another chairmanship, that of Claims, in the new Congress. By a curious freak of politics the next two men in line for the chairmanship were also defeated—Representatives Roy_G. Fitzgerald of Ohio and Harry E. Rowbotton of Indiana. Under the seniority rule the chairmanship of the Committee on Claims will go to Repre- sentative U. 8. Guyer of Kansas, Opening for Freeman. One of the most important commit- tees of the House which will lose its chairman, through defeat of Repre- sentative S. Wallace Dempsey of New York in the primaries, is the Rivers and Harbors Committee, which used to be known as the greatest “pork barrel bill” committee. The ranking Repub- lican to succeed him in this chairman- ship is Representative Richard P. Preeman of Connecticut. Representative Roy G. Fitzgerald of Ohio was defeated for re-election and that will cause a vacan in the chairmanship of the Committee on Re- vision of the Laws, including the work of compiling the new District code and the codification of all the Federal laws. Here again the “runner-up” in line for the chairmanship was defeated in the primaries—Representative Willis J. Sears of Nebraska. This raises a ques- tion as to who will probably-be chair- man. as the next two men in line, Rep- resentative Frank R. Reid of Illinois and Representative Frederick W. Dal- linger of Massachusetts, both have other | committee chairmanships which are considered more important. The chairmanship of the committee on territories is also vacant through the death of Representative Charles F. Cur- ry of California. This vacancy will be fillea in the incoming session. Repre- sentative Curry's son has been elected his successor, but, of course, has no chance for the chairmanship of this committee of which he was clerk for a number of years. The next four men in line—Representative Albert Johnson of Washington, Representative Cassius C. Dowell of Towa, Representative Louis T. McFadden of Pennsylvania and Rep- resentative James C. Strong of Kansas —each has a more important commit- tee chairmanship, so the chairmanship on Territories will probably go to Repre- RUNNECK ANDNECK | Haucke and Woodring in Kan- sas Have Close Battle for Governor’s Seat. | | By the Associated Press. TOPEKA, Kans., November 6.—Two comparatively youthful bachelors, both World War veterans, today awaited final_election tabulations to determine | which would be Governor of the State | of Kansas. Harry Woodring, Democrat, trailed | Frank (Chief) Haucke, Republican, for | more than 24 hours, finally took the | lead, held it briefly, then relinquished it. The Woodring total mounted steadily yesterday, however, and today it appeared likely that the absentee bal- | lots would play an important part in | the decisiog. Majority Only 500 Votes. | Unofficial reports from 2,670 of 2,674 precincts gave Haucke 214,568; Wood- ring, 214,038, and Dr. J. R. Brinkley, independent, 181,294. Wdodring made an extensive cam- paign in the normally Republican State. The gubernatorial race was compli- cated, however, by the late entry of Dr. Brinkley, Milford, Kans., “goat gland” specialist, who ran as an independent | and polled a surprisingly heavy vote. | Has Democratic Senator. Should Woodring be successful in his | Democratic Governor as well as by a | Democratic Senator. George McGill, a | new-comer in national politics, defeated Senator Henry J. Allen, seeking clection | to the senatorial short term. Allen, a former Kansas Governor, was appointed to the post following the resignation of | Vice President Charles Curtis. Senator Arthur Capper, Republican, easily defeated Jonathan M, Davis, one of the few Democratic ex-Governors. Election of Woodring has been claimed by Guy T. Helvering, Democratic State chaliman. John Hamilton, Republican State chairman, said the official canvass might definitely determine the outcome. 'REGISTRATION FRAUD CHARGED TO THREE and Republican Ward Executive Held by Bal- timore Grand Jury. Special Dispatch to The Star. BALTIMORE, November 6.—A young couple and a Republican ward execu- tive who is charged with advising them to commit perjury in falsely register- ing in order to vote at Tuesday's elec- tion were presented yesterday by the grand jury. Frank Hulseman of Newgate avenue, who was charged with instigating and advising Mr. and Mrs. Earl Morrison to register falsely last October in the third precinct of the twenty-sixth ward, was the ward executive preSented by the jury. His bail was set at $1,000. Morrison and his wife, Myrtle, of the - {4800 block Holabird avenue were charged with perjury. The bail for each was set at $500. The young couple, both of whom are 19 years old, gave their ages as 22 when they registered. It was said after their arrest that Hulseman, who was known y | to the Morrisons only as “Frank,” had suggested that the Morrisons register in spite of their youth and had prom- ised to find @ job for the young hus- —e Anti-Cigarette Plan Loses.

' Five new Senators and two of the present members who were elected Tuesday will be eligible to take the oath of office immediately when Con- gress convenes December 1, since they were chosen to finish unexpired terms. The five new men are: Dwight W. Morrow, Republican, and former Ambassador to Mexico, elected in New Jersey, both for the remainder of the term of former Senator Edge and for a six-year term. Edge resigned to become Ambassador to France. Sen- ator Baird, Republican, who served temporarily on appointment following the departure of Edge, did nat seek election. : Davis Succeeds Grundy. James J. Davis, Republican, who has been Secretary of Labor under three Presidents, was elected for the remain- der of the term expiring in 1933 and takes the seat occupied during the last session by Senator Joseph R. Grundy. Grundy came to the Senate by appoint- ment and later w;,s ;;;M..en in the Re- ublican primary by Davis. 5 George McGiil, Democrat, elected in Kansas to finish the unexpired portion of the term of former Senator Curtis, running until 1933. McGill defeated Senator Henry J. Allen, Republican, who has been serving by appointment since the election of Mr. Curtis to the vice presidency. > Robert J. Bulkley, Democrat, elected in Ohio for the remainder of the term of the late Senator Burton, Republican. Bulkley defeated Senator Roscoe Mc- Culloch, who has been serving on ap- pointment since the death of Senator Burton. Cary Is Newcomer. Robert D. Cary, Republican, elected in Wyoming both for the remainder of the term of the late Senator Warren, Republican, and also for & six-year term. Cary takes the seat occupied by Sena- tor Sullivan, Republican, who was ap- pointed following the death of Senator Warren, but did not seek election this Fall. Senator Daniel O. Hastings, Repub- lican, of Delaware, and Senator 11- liam E. Brock, Democrat, of Tenesses, although at g;uent ‘members of the Senate, will sworn in again next | month, because both had been serv- ing on Governors’ aj pointments. Hast- ings has been elected for the remainder | of the term expiring next March, and also a six-year term thereafter. Senator Brock was elected Tuesday only to finish the term of the late Senator Tyson, ending next March. Wien the new Congress meets next year, Senator Brock will be succeeded by Cordell Hull, well known member of the House, who was elected Tuesday for the six-year Senate term. I Robsion Faces Defeat. 1 The question of who will occupy one | of Ken?ucky‘: Senate seats during the | approaching short session hinges on re- ceipt of more complete returns. In that | State Senator John M. Robsion is the Republican _candidate both for the re- mainder of the term expiring next | March and for the ensuing six-year | term. The Democrats nominated two | men, Ben Williamson for the unexpired | ferm and Judge M. M. Logan for the six-year term beginning next year. In- liamson both in the lead. Senator Robsion is a member of the Senate District Committee. If he should fail to beat Willlamson for the unex- pired term there wculd be an immediate Vacancy to be filled on the Republican membership of the District Committee. ALASKAN VOTE FAVORS | DEMOCRAT AS DELEGATE' | Grigsby Leading Republican Candi- date for Congress by Margin of 417 Ballots. By the Assoclated Press. JUNEAU, Alaska, November 6.—The most Northern Territory of Uncle Sam's | dominion apparently has fallen under | the spell of the Democratic tide which hit the States Tuesday. George B. Grigsby, Democratic can- | didate for Delegate to Congress, the highest elective office in the Territory, | was leading James Wickersham, Repub- lican, by 417 votes, with approximately 70 per cent of the votes reported. Democratic candidates for the Terri- torial Legislature here also were polling | large votes in many districts, but re- turns were too incomplete to be con- clusive. | Republicans were apparently assured of two posts in the Territorial govern- ment, however, as A. G. Smith, candi- date for treasurer, and Cash Cole, can- didate for auditor, were maini i leads over their opponents. . $12,662 CONTRACT LET | Virginia Firm to Install Boiler and | Heating at Naval Air Station. The Navy Department announced to- | day that the Newport Obntracting & Engineering Co., Inc., of Lee Hall, Va,, has been awarded the contract for boiler installation and heating systems at the Naval Air Station at Anacostia for $12,662. This award, part of a program of public works involving the expenditure of $43,943, was announced at the same time as was the award of a contract to the Belmont Iron Works of Philadelphia for a crane runway at the Washington Navy Yard for $6,992. o e 5 CITY NEWS IN BRIEF. ‘TODAY. | card party, Catholic Medical Mis- | sionary, 2850 Twenty-seventh street, | | 8:15 pm.

SCHALL LEADING MAY BEAT HODALE Minnesota Senate Race Re- sults Now Coming From G. 0. P. Territory. By the Associated Press. ST. PAUL, November 6.—A sustained rural rally of ballots today gave Thomas D. Schall, Republican Incumbent, the lead for United States Senator from Minnesota over Einar Hoidale, Demo- crat. There were still 394 precincts missing, all in rural regions. The vote stood, Schall, 263,824; Hoidale, 263,519. Because practically every precinct to be heard from lay in rural territory where Schall polled heavily to whittle away the Hoidale majority amassed in the citles, Schall was confident of vic- tory and predicted he would win by 5,000 to 10,000 votes. Gaining 5 to 30 votes from each of the belated precincts, the blind Repub- lican incumbent, boosted the vote, and cut away the majority which sent Democratic hopes skyrocketing in early returns. Minneapolis and St. Paul gave the Democrats strong support, as part of the heavy deflection of normal Re- publican votes to his cause. After trailing until noon, Godfrey G. Goodwin, Republican incumvent, took a small lead in the race for Representa- tive from the Tenth Minnesoia district over Erling Swenson, Farmer-Laborite, who had Democratic support. Returns from 298 of 318 precincts gave Goodwin 35,343; Swenson 34,965, Unreported rural precincts lay in territory where Goodwin has obtained his strongest support. PINCHOT WILL REST AFTER HARD FIGHT| Hemphill Concedes Defeat as For- g D. C. SCOUTS REPRESENT mer Governor's Plurality Mounts Toward 80,000, By the Associated Press. PHILADELPHIA, November 6.—With victory assured in his battle for the governorship, Gifford Pinchot, dry Re- publican, planned today to go into se- clusion to rest up from his strenuous campaign. Pinchot’s election was conceded by his wet Democratic opponent, John Hemphill, and his plurality mounted steadily toward the 80,000 mark as ad- itional returns trickled in. With only 57 districts out of 8,321 in the State missing, the vote was: Pinchot, 1,066,- 189; Hemphill, 986,283. The total vote was the largest ever polled in & Penn- | sylvania gubernatorial fight. In sweeping to victory for his second term, Pinchot carried 59 of the 67 counties of the State. Philadelphia gave Hemphill a plurality of more than 225,000. All other Republican nominees on the State-wide ticket were elected by normal Republican majorities. With 7,634 districts reported, the vote for United States Senator stood: James J. Davis, Republican, 1,300,193; Sedgwick Kistler, Democrat, 482.456. ‘The Republicans lost three seats in Congress, the eleventh, fourteenth ang twenty-second districts. They gained two seats in the State Senate, but lost {‘our in the State House of Representa- ves. BRYAN IS 7,000 AHEAD OF WEAVER IN NEBRASKA Republican State Ticket Successful by Wide Margin Except in Gubernatorial Contest. By the Associated Press. LINCOLN, Nebr., November 6.—The name of Bryan, long potent in the politics of Nebraska and the Nation’s Democracy, shone with some of its old luster today in the apparent victory of Charles W. Bryan in the governorship race. Returns from 1915 of the 2,040 p: cincts of the State gave Bryan, a for- mer Governor and the Democratic vice esidential nominee in 1924, a 7,000 ad over Gov. Arthur Weaver, his Re. publican opponent. The vote was: Bryan, 207,572, and Weaver, 200,222 Bryan is a brother of the late William Jennings Bryan. Except in the gubernatorial contest, the Republican State ticket was su cessful by a wide margin in Tuesday's election, which also returned to the Senate George W. Norris. At the same time Nebraska sent four Democrats and two Republicans to Congress. Nose Treated in Fall. While crossing the street near his home yesterday afternoon, August Raeder, 65 years old, of 1312 Twelfth street, fell and struck his head against a parked automobile, receiving a severe injury. He was treated at Emergency Hospital for a fractured nose and injury to his skull.

By the Associated Press. LOUISVILLE, November 6.—Indica- tions that Kentucky would have nine Democrats among its 11 members of the House approached almost a cer- tainty today. as returns continued to be tabulated in Tuesday's election. Judge M. M. Logan, long term, and Ben Williamson, short, term, Democratic senatorial candidates, slowly increased their leads over the Republican incum- bent, John M. Robsion, seeking both terms, until they ranged around 31,000. Six Democrats already are assured of re-election, three without opposition in the first, second and third districts, and three in the seventh, eighth and ninth with such commanding leads with chiefly Democratic counties incomplete as to be safe. Republicans assured of re-election are those in the fifth and eleventh. ‘The districts in doubt, but with | Democrats leading, are the fourth, sixth and tenth. If the final returns showed a Demo- cratic winner in the tenth it would be | the first time that the tenth ever sent a member of that party to the House. The returns from 259 of the 326 pre- cincts in the tenth pave A. J. May, Democrat, 21,377, w© 20,072 for Mrs. Katherine Langley, Republican in- cumbent, and May’s big advantage still lay in Knott County, normallv Demo- cratic, with most of its precincts yet uncounted. He appeared to have car- ried Mrs. Langley’s own county, Pike, by a good majority. In the senatorial race, returns from 2,687 precincts out of 4,155 showed Logan 221,903, and Robsion, 190,539, for the long term. Short. 'm_ returns, from 2,633 precincts were, Ben Wil- liamson, Democrat, 210,744, and Rob- sion, 175,234. Election of the Democrats would give Kentucky two members of that party in the Senate, as A. Barkley, holding the other seat, is a Democrat. NEW POLITICAL PARTY OFFICIAL IN NEW YORK Law Preservation Ticket, by Poll- ing 185,000 Votes, Qualified to Hold Conventions. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, November 6 —New York State has another official political party as a result of Tutsdlrs election. Robert Paris Carroll polled more than 185,000 votes running for Governor on the Law Preservation party ticket. The election law provides that any party garnering 25,000 or more votes in an election automatically wins offi- | cial status. So the Law Preservation party, whose principal plank favored prohibition en- forcement, wins the right to hold con- ventions, nominate candidates and to conduct primary elections at State ex- pense. | COMRADES AT EXERCISES Karl Krumke, Jr., and Melville Fraser Will Place Wreaths on Tomb of Unknown Armistice Day.
