SHITH, WAGHER I GREAT VIGTORIES New Yorkers Also Overwhelm- ingly for Referendum New York, Nov. 3 P——Two pro- ducts of the sidewalks of New York, Tammany proteges, had great triumphs at the polls yesterday. Gavernor “Al” Smith is the first man in the long history of the state to be elected to a fourth term as governor. Robert F. Wagner wrest- | ed the senator’ 1 toga from James | W. Wadsworth, Jr, a republican stalwart who has worn it for twelve vears. Both Smith and Wagner grew up on the tceming Bast Side | and had to work for their living in | their youth. Their opponents were of aristocratic, wealthy families. Bventually, Smith and Wagner went to the legislature together and worked for the same measures. Smith became governor and a presi- dential candidate while Wagner, a native of Prussia, worked his way through college here, studied law republican document was non-com- mittal. Milk Was Issue In a campaign where Smith, Wag- ner and Wadsworth were avowedly wet and Mills mildly so, revolved events curiously about the issue of milk. Mills charged that Smith was responsible for adulterated milk be- ing sold in New York city. He de- clared the governor, in faillng to press an investigation, “crawled in- to a beer keg o escape the rattle of the milk can. The charges collapsed, however, in the eyes of the democrats, when an expert who analyzed milk specimens at the instance of the republican committee, later said that nothing injurious had been found and that the supply was superior to most | cities. There werg minor issues of Coolidge = and economy, stressed by Mills, and the latter asserted that the governor was running for office to aid his candidacy for the presidential nomination. But the governor, a few s before election, stated that it elected he did not intend to leave the state, except to play golf now and then, and would devote his whole energies to his job. Rancor marked the campalign in its closing days when the governor heatedly accused Mr. Mills of at- and became a justice of the SY.’I'(‘!((\Ckinz his private life. He threat- supreme court.

In the case of Wadsworth, an upstate republican, however, he ran afoul of the d:. element of his party upstate, and a wing led by Francls W. Cristman of Herkimer, obtained enough votes to undermine, him. Smith, who has heen a guherna- torial candidate five times, made a great run in defeating Congressman Ogden I Mills of New York. His plurality was 243.077. The vote, with 471 distr] S g, was: Smith, 1,488 Mills, 1,2 Complete | election disfricts in York city showed the governor's plurality here was 483,391 Smith, Mills, 354,896.

The governor and Mr. Hearst have long been at sword's points political- ly. The governor spoke his mind on the stump about the publisher.
