Roosevelt who passed hrough this city today after campaign- ir;t.' in that state. e “On my return from three days i Maine,” Mr. Roo: i elt said in a state- ment, “I find it imp)ssible to make any estimate of the situation. The passage of the nineteenth amendment giving wo- men the votc, has caused extreme con- fusion. No one has any idea as to the size of the woman's registration or their vote on September 13, “I feel very strongly that if all the women's vote in Maine could be polled a majority of them would favor the demo- cratic ticket. They show the same ten- dency to cast their ballots in favor of a definite and permanent peace as they do_in other sections 4 the country, “I did, however, run across more loose campaign talk in Maine than anywhere else so far. For instance, the republi- cans are going around from house to house circulating the story that Cana- dian troops are about to be sent to fight in Poland under the League of Nations. This s simply an example of the straits to which the oppasition is driven for cam- X | paign material” ce I 1 I Service on B.R.T. is Nearing Normal Two Men Were Killed and Seven Injured in Accident to an Emergency Bus.
