\ ER By EPUBLICANS shouted loudly that the victory of their party in the New York state election was a terrl- fic blow to the New Deal and a repu- diation of President Roosevelt. The Demo- crats declared It -was no such thing. James A. Farley, who is both national and state chairman of the Dem- ocrats, gave them their cue when he declared recapture of control of the legislature by the G. 0. P. was “normal” and that the Demo- J. 7.. Farley cratic vote for assem- bly candidates taken as a whole ex- ceeded the Republican vote by more than half a million, which was some- thing of an exaggeration. The Republicans gained nine addi tional seats in the assembly, giving them 82 to 68 held by the Democrats. Only two senate seats were Involved in the contest, both to fill vacancies. One of them went to a Republican and the other to a Democrat, leaving the setup of the upper legislature body unchanged. In 45 citie of the state, the Repub- leans elected 33 mavors, including Ro- land B. Marvin of Syracuse, possible nominee for governor next year. The President saw Hyde Park go Repub- lican and Farley failed to hold his own district in Rockland county. The Democratic organization In New York came through strongly and men- aces the prospect of a re-election for Mayor LaGuardia, observers hold, The Fusion forces, which turned Tammany out two years ago, crumbled. In Philadelphia 8. Davis Wilson, Re- publican, was elected mayor but the vote was close enough for the Demo- crats to call it a virtual victory for the New Deal. Cleveland, Columbus and 23 out of 42 other cities and towns in Ohlo chose Republican mayors, and so did a number of municipalities In Massachusetts. Connecticut Socialists re-elected Jasper MclLevy mayor of Bridgeport and Democratic mayors were returned in Hartford and New Haven. Republicans gained control of the New Jersey legislature, but Hudson county, Including Jersey City, went Democratic by a record vote. Results in the in Kentucky gave the New Dealers a real reason for rejoicing, for A. B. Chandler, known as “Happy.” the Dem- ocratic candidate for governor who had the support of the national adminis- tration, handily defeated Judge King Swope, the Republican nominee. This despite the fact that Democratic Gov- ernor Lafoon had declared himself against Chandler and threw his sup- port to Swope. The referendom on repeal of the state prdhibition amend. ment gave the repealists a good ma- Jority, In Virginia and Mississippl all the Democratic nominees were elected, which was to be expected acular election Hn ED 6 ROSSLY arbitrary, unreasonable and capricious,” was the way Federal Judge William C, Coleman of Baltimore described the public utility holding act, and he held the law un- constitutional in its entirety. In a long decision, the judge declared that the act's “Invalid provisions” were “so multifarious and so intimately and re- peatedly interwoven throughout the act as to render them incapable of separa- tion from such parts of the act, if any, a8 otherwise might be valid” Judge Coleman instructed trustees for the American States Public Service company, plaintiffs in the litigation on the act, to treat the law as “invalid and of no effect” The Securities and Exchange com- mission announced in Washington, how- ever, that enforcement of the act will continue, despite the ruling. \ EORGE of Greece 8 once more king. The plebiscite resulted in his recall by a huge majority, and be fore long the monarch will be back on the throne he abd saan cated 12 years ago. The vote in favor of the restoration was al most unanimous, even in Crete, the birth. place of the repub- lican leader Venizelos who Is now In exile and under sentence of death. ; As the results of the balloting came in, Pre- “ mier George Kondylis King appeared on a balcony George Il of a government building and an nounced: “As of tomorrow, King George II will be king of the Hellenes. There will be no politieal parties. They have been broken up by the peo ple themselves and a new epoch of reconstruction will start.” ACKENZIE KING, the new prime minister of Canada, was in Wash. ington negotiating with President Roosevelt a reciprocal trade agreement between the United States and the Do. minion. Completion of such a treaty ‘was one of the planks of King's recent election platform, Canada buys more from the United States than any other country, and America, in turn, Is Canada's best cus- tomer. Last year America exported goods worth £302,000,000 to Canada and imported goods worth $281,000,000, These totals compare with 1020 totals of $948000,000 and $508,000,000 re- spectively. HINA has suddenly abandoned the metallic silver currency standard, adopted a managed paper currency and otherwise reformed its monetary system. The four-point program was announced in Shanghal by Finance Minister H. H. Kung just after Vice President Garner and his party of congressmen had left the city for Manila, The American party was entertained by high Chinese officials, including Kung. But, despite much oratory of the hands across the sea character, no hint was given of China's contem- plated action. However, all English language newspapers in S8hanghal ecar- ried long interviews with Senator Wil- llam H. King of Utah and Senator jurton K. Wheeler of Montana, both of whom practically told China that it “was not any of her business what America did about silver,” and pre- dicted the continuance of United States purchases until the price of sil- ver has reached $1.29 an ounce. V HILE the invading Itallans were pushing further and further into his realm, Emperor Halle Selassie I of Ethiopia celebrated the fifth anniver- sary of his corona- tion, and he did it in fine style, too. Es corted by a throng of feudal chiefs in bar baric attire, the king of kings and his queen passed through the streets of Addis Ababa amid wildly cheering thousands, and gave thanks to “ God in St. George's Emperor Hails 1 odral Afterward, Selassie seated on his ivory and teakwood throne in the palace, he received the felicitations of the chieftains and the diplomatic corps. In the afternoon Halle gave the sol- diers a great feast of raw meat, and in the evening he entertained the dip- lomats and nobles at a state banquet with golden service and rare wines The emperor holds that the big ofl concession negotiated for American interests by F. M. Rickett, the English promoter, still holds good although the Americans relinquished it at the sug- gestion of Secretary Hull, “This con- cession,” sald Halle, “is an Integral part of our national economic pro gram. We purposely granted it to a neutral country like the United States in order to avoid political complica- tions and international jealousies. It is unfortunate that war must delay its fullflment. - Through the benefits ac crulng to this concession we hope to raise the social level of people and provide them with honorable remunera- tive en ~loyment.™ HE League of Nations set Novem- ber 18 as the day on which the economic sanctions agalost Italy should be put into effect, and later decided that coal, iron and oll should be included in the embargo. The league appointed Premier Laval of France and Sir Samuel Hoare, British foreign minister, to carry on peace ne- gotiations with Italy. Sir Samuel still insisted any peace must be within the framework of the League. The Italian armies on the northern front pushed further into Ethiopia, fol- lowing the tanks and with bombing planes active overhead, and one col umn entered the city of Hauzien on the way to Makale. The Invaders met vith no resistance of consequence. The government at Addis Ababa announced that Italian planes had killed 30 wom- en, 15 children and 100 cows with bombs and machine gun fire at Gora hel. RESIDENT ROOSEVELT has ac- cepted an invitation from Edward A. O'Neal, president of the American Farm Bureau federation, to appear be- fore that organization in Chicago on December 9 and deliver an address. Mr. Roosevelt will arrive In Ghicago at nine o'clock that morning, make his speech, and start back to Washington three hours later. The President's promised trip to In. diana to take part in the dedication of a memorial to George Rogers Clark at Vincennes has been postponed until June of next year, when he will also ILLY SUNDAY, the spectacular evangelist whose fiery eloquence led many thousands to “hit the saw- dust trail” to the altar and seek sal vation, died of heart disease at the home of his brother-in-law in Chicago.

Mr. Sunday, who was almost gpeventy-three years of age, was a professional ball player in his youth, He was converted in 1880 and in 1908 was ordained a Presbyterian minister. One of America's leading sclentists, Henry Fairfield Osborn, died in New York at the age of seventy-three years, He was eminent in many branches of science and was sometimes called “the successor to Darwin and Huxley.” For years he was the president of the American Museum of Natural His tory. OVIET Russia celebrated the eight- eenth anniversary of the Bolshevik revolution with a tremendous display of its armed strength in Moscow. In- fantry, cavalry, tanks and all the oth- er army services marched for hours past the tomb of Lenin, where stood Joseph H. Stalin and other leaders to review the long parade, Voroshiloff, commissar for war and navy, declared in the order of the day that the Soviet army was ready to protect the frontiers of “our sacred land” at any moment. He warned the world that danger of a new general war hung over mankind, The executive committee of the Communist Internationale published an appeal to workers of all countries to Join hands to force an end to Italy's war in Ethiopia, protect the Chinese people from invasion, ward off danger of war In Europe and bring about a downfall of Fascism V HEN the nations get together in London in December for the next naval conference it Is not likely they will be able to agree on much in the way of limitation of naval armament. But there Is a good prospect that Italy will there demand the neutralization of the straits of Gibraltar, which would be extremely distasteful and perhaps embarrassing to Great Britain. Diplomats are certain the British would refuse to make the concession. It was reported In Paris that the Duce would ask that the straits be put In the same status as the Suez canal, and would offer to scrap two 35.000 ton battleships now under construction as an evidence of his good faith. Britain hopes France will support her atti. tude concerning this demand and ia return may agree to take a larger per- centage of exports from French Moroe- €0 to strengthen France's position ina that colony. French naval experts #ald that, while neutralization of the stralts would guarantee free passage for France for all time, yet “it would be better to have a strong British hold on Gibraltar” in case France got In a war with Germany and was faced with the prospect of German submarines entering the Mediter rannean to ravage her commerce and stop transport of troops from north African possessions, FTER a conference with agricul tural specialists and representa- tives of farmers, Secretary of Agri- culture Wallace announced that a two year program for corn and hog pro- ducers had been determined upon, the main features of which are: 1. Prevention .of an excessive pro duction of corn In 1036 and 1087. 2. Allowagce of an increase In next year's pig crop that would be at least as great as it is estimated would take place were no adjustment program in effect. 8. Prevention of an excessive In crease In the 1937 pig crop. The new contract will require that an area at least equal to the number of acres withdrawn from production of corn be added to the usual area of the farm devoted to soll-improving and erosion- preventing uses. This re quirement was a part of the 1034 corn. hog contract but was relaxed when the drouth come. EDALS were awarded by the Car. negie hero fund commission to 47 men and children of the United States and Canada, or to their relatives in 11 cases.

But only the remains of Smith's father, mother and younger brother ever were placed In this tomb. Soon after the body of the younger Smith was placed in the vault, the door at the entrance was broken down and the body stolen. An unsigned note offered return of it for $200. A neighbor youth was suspected, confessed the ghoulish act and returned the body. This occur. rence turned Linus Smith against mausoleums and he transferred all three bodies to a cemetery. The vault, empty for years, now is occu- pled by Charles Ritter, bachelor farmer, who finds it quite a desir. summer and warm in winter, installed which Ritter uses for cook- ter.
