publican aspirant for State or con
gressional office, in spite of the fight
put up by Uriited States Senator Wil

The Senator was not up for re-elec

Cutting Reduces Margin of
Former Newsboy, How
ever.
By the Associated Press.
ALBUQUERQUE, N. Met, Novem
ber 7.—A former newsboy. Repre
sentative Dennis Chavex. apparently
was headed today for the United
States Senate as its new member
from New’ Mexico.
While the margin of votes separat
ing him from United States Senator
Bronson Cutting, the Republican who
supported President Roosevelt in
1932, was not large enough to make
victory certain, the ballots cast in
yesterday’s election continued to pile
up in his favor.
Chaves’ Lead 700.
Chavez’ lead over Senator Cutting
was approximately 700 votes, with re
turns tabulated from more than one
half of the precincts In the State.
With 406 out of 785 precincts report
ed. Chavez had 46.652 and Cutting
45.936.
Former Gov. R. C. Dillon. Republi
can, aspirant to the two-year Senate
term which Carl Hatch. Democrat,
now' occupies, was trailing Hatch by
about 7.000 votes.
In the congressional race, the Re
publican candidate, Maurice Miera,
and J. J. Dempsey, Democrat, were
about the same distance apart, with
Dempsey in the lead.
Tingley Leads Miller.
Clyde Tingley, Democratic nominee
for Governor, had a slightly smaller
lead over Jaffa Miller, Republican.
Because of the heavier-than-usual
vote and the isolated location of some
voting precincts, final returns of the
New Mexico voting probably will be
slow in being tabulated.

TOPEKA. Kans. November 7.—
Kansas stood out today as an island

The vote from 1.971 of 2.691 pre
cincts gave Landon 297,779 and
Ketchum 247,514.
The State affirmed it* traditional
dry stand, defeating emphatically a
proposal to repeal its 54-year-old con
stitutional prohibition amendment.
The Democratic membership in Con
gress may remain the same. Edward
Patterson. Democrat, was leading
Harold McGugin. haraaser of the

New Jersey Senator-Elect
One of Most Popular
Officeholders.
By th* A**ociat«d Press.
JERSEY CITY, N. J., November
7.—Gov. A. Harry Moore, newly
elected United State* Senator, is per
haps the mast popular man holding
public office in the State today and
certainly one of the greatest vote
getters in the State's history.
The vote, with only 17 of the State's
3,488 election districts missing, was:
Moore. 779.726: Hamilton F. Kean,
Wall Street banker. 549.067.
Jersey City, domain of Mayor Frank
Hague, gave Moore to the State, but
it was his own shrewdness and
political sagacity which raised him
from the level of commonplace office
seekers and fetched the majorities
which characterized his two guberna
torial victories and his trumph in the
present election.
Yet nine years ago he was hardly
known outside of Hudson County.
When he campaigned for the gov- j
ernorship in 1925 his name was
strange to the ears of men and
women in remote parts of the State.
He won the election of 1925 and he
never stopped campaigning. He could
be seen at flag-raisings and speaking
to Bible class students, to the citi
zens of Sussex as well as Cape May
counties.
His election as Governor for the
second time in 1931, by a plurality
of 230.000, broke a record which had
stood since 1890, when Leon Abbott, i
a Democrat, like Moore, was elected
for a second term.
Moore Is 55, married, but childless.
At *13 he was working for *3 a week
to help support five other little
Moores, orphans.
He attended night schools and busi
ness college*. He studied law, was
elected a city commissioner in 1913,
opposed Hague, then made peace with
him at a time when Hague's machine
was being built. Hague recognized
Moore's qualities and Moore did the
rest with Hague* support.

Hails New Utopia
"KINGEISH” PLANS MORE -POOR PEOPLE” LAWS.
I
SENATOR HUEY LONG.
By th* Associated Press.
NEW ORLEANS. November 7— I
"KingfLsh'' Huey Long bubbled with
enthusiasm today aver the Utopia he
says he is setting up in the United
States.
He shouted hilariously over the
sweeping adoption of his "redistribu
tion of wealth" amendments in yes
terday's election and prepared to call
another special session or the Legisla
ture to pass a few more "poor-people”
laws.
Of the victory at the polls, he slap
ped his friends on the bark, waved
his arms wildly and ahouted:
"There's never been anything like
this in the history of the world.
Thousands and thousands of votes at
the polls. They've fpught me over '
and over again and I’ve beat ’em.
Maybe this will teach ’em. Have you
ever seen a slaughter like this?"
The amendments rolled to victory
by majorities of from 2 to 1 in some
sections to almost clean sweeps in
others.
They provided, among other things. '
to give everybody the right to vote
without paying a $1 poll tax, to ex- ,
empt homes from taxation up to the
first $2,000 In assessment, to reduce
automobile license rates and to im
pose an income tax.
There are 14 of the amendments,
and Long said they were all closely
bound together to "shift the burden
of taxation from the little man -who
can't afford to pay it to the big man
who can pay it and never know a
thing about it."
And for Louisiana as a new “world
power." the Senator had big ideas.
"The only way for us to get out of
this here depression," he said “is to
secede from the United States.
“There's 2.000,000 people in Louis
iana. but leave us alone and well
have 40.000.000 people in Louisiana.
"Oh. it’ll take us five or six yean.
I reckon, but we'll set up a real
Utopia In this State."
He said he was waiting on Gov. O.
K. Allen, his lieutenant, for a call for
a special session of the Legislature.
“I’m ready any time." he said.
“I've got my laws up and the Gov
ernor's got to get his up. There's no
telling at what hour we'll call a spe
cial session."
He said it would be "much sooner”
than "next week or the week after.”
CONNECTICUT HAS TWO
DEMOCRATS IN SENATE
Election of Francis T. Maloney
Gives Administration Un
tiring Supporter.
By the Associated Press.
MERIDEN, Conn., November 7.—i
The election to the Senate of Francis
T. Maloney, bespectacled former may- |
or of this city, gave Connecticut two
Democrat* in the United States Sen-1
ate for the first time in the State*
lengthy history and gave the admin
istration an untiring and forceful
supporter.
Maloney’s triumph climaxed a bril- :
liant campaign in which he lauded the
New Deal and contrasted his record
in the last Congress, in which he
served as Representative, with that
of Frederick C. Walcott, the State’s
senior Senator, whom he succeeds.
Walcott has steadfastly opposed the
administration.
As mayor of this city, Maloney is
credited with having installed the
machinery which later was adopted
almost intact by the administration as
the P. W. A. Consequently when the
Government took over the public
works project, Meriden was well pre
pared to carry it out.

SEHATEAGE FIGHT
West Virginia Victor for
Senate Rose Rapidly
From Obscurity.
By the AMociftted Press.
CHARLESTON, W. Va., November j
7.—West Virginia made a Senator of
Rush Dew Holt, 29-year-old militant
liberal. In Joining wholeheartedly in
a New Deal parade.
Holt, who In a few scant years rose
from a little known member of the '
Slate Legislature to lead the 8tate’s
Democrats in their battle cry of ‘TOO
per cent for President Roosevelt." ap
parently decisively defeated the in
cumbent Republican, Henry D. Hat
field.
In 1.918 of 2.338 preaincts Holt had
a total of 306.776 votes, to 242,634 for
Hatfield, a margin of 64.142.
The young liberal s election gives the
State two Democratic Senator*. M. M.
Neely of Fairmont, elected in 1932,
is the other.
At least five of the Democratic Rep
resentatives are assured of re-election.
Only one Is in a close race and he
has held the lead consistently.
After 20 year: of prohibition, the
State turned its back on its dry laws
and voted for an amendment that
will permit the sale of liquor after
March 1, but not in saloons. The
vote in 1.578 precincts was 210.000 for
repeal and 154,137 against, a majority
of 55,863.
Legislature Democratic.
Another Democratic 8tate Legisla
ture, the *econd in more than 40
years, apparently was assured on the i
basis of scattered returns in the vari
ous races.
The veteran senior Senator had
based his campaign on his record as a
public servant and on his opposition to
New Deal activities, which, he said,
were depriving the Nation of its
"birthright of freedom.” Holt's fight
for election was on a basis of support
of the Roosevelt administration as well
as on his record in the State Legisla
ture.
Next Fig-ht on Age.
Holt's next fight Is to convince the
United States Senate he is old enough
to serve.
Under the Constitution, no one
under 30 years is eligible to a seat in
the Senate. Holt will not reach that
age until next July, several months
after the next session of Congress
convenes.
The Senator-elect has thumbed his
tory's pages and found precedent upon
which he bases a reply to those who
challenge his eligibility.
Henry Clay, he points out, was
seated before he was 30 and Holt
maintains the Senate will extend him
"the same courtesy."
A native of Weston, in the Northern
West Virginia hills. Holt emerged
from obscurity In 1931.

DONAHEY POPULAR
FOR OHIO REFORMS
Campaigned as “Free Man.”
Promises “to Keep Faith
With People.”
By the Associated Preu.
COLUMBUS. November T. — Vic
Donahey, veteran Democrat, known
widely among the voters as “Honest
Vic,” campaigned as a “free man.
without pledge or promise,” to defeat
the Republican senior Senator from
Ohio, Simeon D. Fess.
Donahey's majority appeared head
' ed for approximately 400,000 and was
of such stupendous proportions that
! it appeared certain to carry into office
the Democratic candidate for Gov
ernor, Martin L. Davey of Kent. Re
turns from 8,079 precincts of 8,559
gave Donahey 1,162.738 and Fess 778 -
419, a plurality of 384,319 for the
Democrat.
At his Indian Lake home early to
day he was informed his opponent
had conceded his election. Refusing
to issue a formal statement "until
morning,” he sent word that he will
“keep the faith with the people of
Ohio.”
Made Many Reforms.
His widespread appeal to the Ohio
electorate began soon after he was
elected State Auditor in 1912.
Many reforms which he introduced .
in the auditor's office gave him an
other nickname, "the watchdog of
the treasury," and he was easily elect
ed Governor in 1930, serving three
terms.
Born in Tuscarawas County, July
7, 1873. Donahey conducted a publish
! ing business for many years. He was
the father of 12 children. 10 of whom
are living. He takes great pride in
his large family.
Shunned Speech making.
Quietly visiting friends and swap
| ping stories and chewing tobacco in
the primary campaign, instead of
! making speeches over the State. Don
ahey defeated Gov. George White and
Representative Charles West for the
nomination, despite opposition by *
such Democratic powers as James M.
Cox and Newton D. Baker.
Donahey has praised President
Roosevelt, and has promised to "sup
j Port the New Deal in every proper
I manner.”
‘ So powerful was his name on the
Democratic ballot it appeared, on the
basis of today's tabulation, that Dona
hey would carry to victory virtually
ail the other Democratic candidates
; on the State ticket.
SONS CARRYING^ON
LA FOLLETTE WORK
Senator ‘‘Too Busy to Give Out'*
New Plans for Progressive
j Party.
By th# Associated Press.
MILWAUKEE. Wis . November 7.—
Senator Robert M La Follette today
was “too busy studying returns” to
announce what plans, if any. he has
to devolop his new Progressive party
into a national organization.
The new party, launched by the old
La Follette Republicans, with the aid
i of farm and labor groups, apparently
j elected him Senator.
Returns from 2.719 precincts of
2,917 gave La Follette 395.992: John
i B. Chappie, Republican, 193.967, and
John M. Callahan. 203.679. *
The ! a Follettes have described their
new political vehicle as a movement
seeking to emphasize a clear-cut dis
t Unction between Liberals and Con
| servatives.
He and his brother, Phil F.. de
clared publicly, the new party has
come to Wisconsin to stay.
The Progressive movement, as it
was created and nursed into a power
ful political agency by the late Robert
M. La Follette sr., father of the two ,
young men now carrying on his work,
j was allied until this year with the
Republican party. Yet it had little
in common with Republicanism except
the name.
The elder La Follette went out into
the rural regions to biuld up his sup
port and he built it so well that, it
still endures. His sons were bene
ficiaries in yesterday's election. At
the same time he gathered a following
among small business men and It was
to these two groups that the new
party directed its appeal.
