A—16 »» ROOSEVET FOUND SUREOF MARYLAND Majority Equal to 130,000 ! of 4 Years Ago Seen for President. - A#Y WILL P. KENNEDY. 8:4ft Correspondent of The Star. ' BALTIMORE, October 31.—In spite of confident claims by Republican leaders to the contrary, the impartial &N’Ver. after a careful independent survey covering all 23 counties, be- lleves that Roosevelt will carry Mary- Iand by at least as large a vote as r years ago when he won with a jajority of 130,000 3 !'He turther is convinced that Roose- velt will probably get a better vote in each of the six congressional districts than the Democratic members who are seeking re-election, all of whom are likely to be re-elected and at least four of whom will win with a larger | vete than two years ago—Represent- | dfive William P. Cole, Towson; Rep- Yesentative Ambrose J. Kennedy, Bal- timore: Representative Stephen W.| Gambrill, Laurel, and Representative David J. Lewis, Cumberland. Repre- | déntative T. Alan Goldsborough, Den-: ton, and Representative Vincent J. Palmisano, Baltimore, both have bit- | ter opposition. The Republican State Readquarters says that both will cer- tainly be defeated. i'Senator George L. Radcliffe, chair- | man of the Maryland Democratic Campaign Committee, with ehbonte} Beadquarters in’ the Emerson Hotel, says: “We carried the State for R_ooae< | yelt four years ago with a majority of | 180,000. We will carry it this time | By a big majority—at least 100,000, probably a great deal more. We will | arry practically all of the counties By very substantial majorities, npd the ty of Baltimore by a surprisingly rge vote. The Sun-papers poll shows 4) counties for Roosevelt and only fwo for Landon—we have a decided éhance to carry onme of those two, Maybe both.” Garrett and Carroll Doubtful. The two doubtful counties as Cam- paign Manager Radcliffe sees them are Garrett and Carroll. In Garrett the Democrats gained 1600 on new registration. The Republicans had previously had 4,100, and their reg- {stered plurality is now 2500. The Republicans carried Carroll County in the Sun poll by several hundred. William P. Lawson, the Republican | State chairman, claims: “We will carry the State for Landon and will elect Republican Congressmen in each | of the six districts. I do not know of a weak spot in the congressional districts unless it is Allegheny County. In the city of Baltimore Landon will win with a small majority and the counties will bring in a majority of 29.000 to 30,000 for him. Some coun- ties will give the largest majority ever given to a Republican cardidate,” and he specified Talbot, Cecil, Carroll, Harford, Washington, Montgomery | and St. Marys. “Allegheny County in the last election gave Gov. Nice ! 6,200,” Chairman Lawson recalls, | “and I think we should break even this time. We have a better chance | than last time in Baltimore County, and I expect we will break about ! even. Chances in Dorchester County | look excellent. We are relying on | Somerset to turn in a big majority | for Landon. In Caroline County O. | Straughn Llovd, Salisbury, candidate | for Congres, will defeat Representa- | tlve T. Allen Goldsborough in his home county. The labor vote is in | some plants solid for the Republican ticket. The colored vote is in good | shape for our candidates. The Re- | publican campaign in Maryland is | well financed and we will have all the | funds we need on election day.” He explained that “the State Central Committee had done the campaign financing with money collected within the State.” H Jackson Also Confident. Mayor Howard W. Jackson of Bal- timore, whose position as party “‘boss’ is being challenged by Senator Mil- | lard Tydings, is just as ‘sure as is! Campaign Manager Radcliffe that the Democrats are going to make a clean sweep, and with mounting majori- tles. He says: “I always hesitate to predict the results of an election. Of | cpurse, I could guess any figure as to | what President Roosevelt’s majority might be. Predicated on the result | ©f the registration in Baltimore, which | gave the Democrats 156,000 majority | over the Republicans and 144,000 over | all—and also the information I have as to the very favorable results of the | Democratic registration in other | eounties, I do not hesitate to predict | & majority in 1936 at least as great as | it was in 1932, in which year Presi- | @ent Roosevelt carried Maryland by | 180,130. There isn't any question in | my mind about the re-election of the | 8ix Democratic Congressmen from Maryland, all of whom are clndl-‘ fates.” ! 1:0n election day, November 8, 1932, | Maryland gave Roosevelt 314,314 and | Hoover 184,184—a majority of 130,130, By counties the vote was: Allegany, 12,033 for Roosevelt to 12911 for Hoover; Anne Arundel 9761 to 5,77 Baltimore, 24,626 to 13938; Calvert, 1i696 to 1,838; Carolfne, 3,651 to 1,998; | ©arroll, 6,482 to 5,732; Cecil, 4,282 toj 3i569; Charles, 2,473 to 1,851; Dorches- | ter, 4547 to 3,466; Frederick, 10,686 %0 7,141; Garrett, ford, 6,073 to 3.954; Howard, 4,161 to §.970; Kent, 2,370 to 1,468; Montgom- ery, 9,882 to 5,698, Prince Georges, 1,580 to 6.696; Queen Annes, 3,683 1,583; St. Marys, 2,885 to 1,322; merset, 4,811 to 3,675; Talbot, 4,233 2,672; Washington, 11,370 to 8,92 Worcester, 3,593 to 2,178; Wicomico, 6,895 to 3,812, and Baltimore City, 60,309 to 78,954.

Formr Mayor Preston said that the Roosevelt vote will be enhanced by the support of big business as well as the small in- vestor and the frugal family man as well as the working man “because Roosevelt saved the banks and the railroads.” Senator Ty sald: “I would be surprised if Landon gets as many electoral votes as Hoover received four years ago.” He said he bases this on sentiment he found in various parts of the country.

At the same time, it became known that authorities at the Vatican were displeased at what they considered an attack upon constituted govern- mental authority. At the outset, of tonight's broadcast, Coughlin abandoned his prepared text to recall that he had referred to Mr. Roosevelt as the “scab President” and to make His apology. Otherwise, the speech included an assertion that through the operation of the electoral system, the presiden- tial election might result in making ice Presideni John H. Garner, the ‘acting President of the United States,” and an attack upon the so- cial security act. Denying that “a vote for Lemke (Union party presidential candidate) is a wasted vote,” he sald that the Lemke vote might result in pre-| venting any candidate from obtain- ing a majority of the electoral college, In that event, he said, the Presi- dent would be elected by the House of Representatives, and if that body M mashing Sale! 810-818 Seventh St. <hould be deadlocked, the Vice Presi- dent elected meanwhile by the Demo- cratic Senate would become “acting President.” “Then will eventuate an unthought- of President of the United States in the person of John Nance Garner, the Vice President of the Democratic party,” he said. Social Security Denounced. Of the social security act, he said: “My fellow citizens, be sensible and alert. Why be trapped by this spu- rious social security that is aimed not at helping the poor and the la- boring classes but which is cleverly planned to perpetuate the vicious hourly wage system and the private issuance and control of money? * * ¢ “Today every laboring man contrib- utes one out of every three dollars he earns in hidden taxes to support a bureaucracy. “Tomorrow it will mean, with the rising prices of foodstuffs, of wear- ing apparel, of the conveniences and necessities which you buy, that $1.50 out of every $3 will be contributed for-a social security plan which of- fers no security except for the banker and the monopolists and the army of bureaucrats.” Coughlin said in his speech that he planned three addresses in the next two days, bringing his campaign to a close. He will speak tomorrow after- | noon at Scranton, Pa., with the ad- dress broadcast; tomorrow night m‘ Newark, N. J, and will make a final | speech Monday night by radio.

The order noted that the Union party had been excluded from the ballot in this State aud said “Gov. Lehman's Democratic party and its satellites will not permit the citizens of New York State to cast a vote for Lemke and O'Brien.” | l\lTHREE IN FAMILY KILLED DANVILLE, Va., October 31 (#).— Charles Hudson, 52: his wife, Mrs. Nannie Hudson, 48, and their 4-year old daughter of Danville were crushed to death today when an automobile in which they were riding collided with a heavily loaded truck and plunged over a 20-foot embankment., Three other daughters of the Hude sons, Nannie, 14; Edna, 13, and Mrs, Ola McKinney, 26, were seriously ine Jured FALL IS FEEDING TIME Right now is the b and condition you e e i 19 Years' Satisfactory Serviee.
