BEAMAN CHICAGO, ¥. l—The quadren nial political poker game reached the “show down” stage in the Mid die West today. Party leaders and campaign managers tossed additional claims of success into the “pot” and declared they were ready to have their hands “called” by the voters tomorrow. } Republican national committee headquarters here claimed at least 340 electoral votes for Senator War . Harding. Victor Heints, Bide. He confidently expected the election of a republican senate and house and a majority of state tickets to be swung with the :presi- | dental ticket. “DES MOINES SPEECH STARTED A FTOOD* | Frank C.
