Kentucky, Indiana and Missouri. In order to have' any chance to over turn the indicated result of the presi dential contest, the Democrats will have to win' every ' one of these states, plus enough of the- other to which they assert they have a chancer to supply 33 votes, which, i added -to ;. the 149 safely Democratic states, will ' give them the decision. . j .

Republican managers'' judgment is di vided over the wisdom of publicly exi ploiting the propaganda directed against Senator Harding, to which I" first called attention In a dispatch from r Columbus two weeks ago. method msAppBOVEn- f A large number of the Republican managers believe that the Ohio style of campaigning; which was responsible for the circulation of the report that one of Senator Harding's ancestors, was .of negro origin, snouta oe aosoiutely f tgt nored. Others assumed the contrary"' at tltude. The latter seem i to have had their way and to have moved in the most direct fashion to discredit, the charge against him, the chief political Import ance of which was that it might affect him. In the so-called border states; Where race prejudices are very acute. '! ; The Democratic' national managers have not encouraged this style of cam panning ana-wnen " maner was re peatedly brought to their: attention re fused to assist id giving currency to it- Whether the slander urged against Senator Harding which has been met. with prompt and positive,, denial will really hurt his chances of winning . the presidency is problematical. It may cost him some votes in the border states, but the reaction In the Ndrth does not seem to justify the belief that; it will do so in that section. . :m ''(. - AXXIETT JFELT . 7 V I The Republican managers admit con siderable anxiety over some of 'the sena torial candidates in California, Connecti cut, New York, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Missouri, Nevada -New Hampshire and Utah. , j ; ': ..r . - ' In each of these states there exists conditions' that are not . influenced' by the i contest over the presidency and which seem to' hold out hope to Demo cratic candidates. The chief difference that marks the presidential and sena torial contest is that many thousands of voters who . are arrayed against the Democratic administration for many causes and a few reasons are apparent ly favorable to the election of Demo cratic senators and candidates on State tickets.' " I . . One of the most important men in the Republican management told me today that "we will be satisfied If we hold bur in the senate." Toe bf electing their sena torlal candidates te California : Con lana, Kentucky, Mis necticut. Idaho! souri, Nevada, New York and Utah is based on much more substantial ground than their claijns to the electoral votes of those states. . Their reasons mainly: have to do with resentments against the i Republican senatorial candidates that j do not apply to the presidential contest. The Democratic managers assert that they will elect at least 19 of the 33 can didates, which will be a gain of six, and carry a majority of four in the upper house. - -. -i ' If the survey conducted by both par-' ties is confirmed by the results of bal loting on Tuesday the Independent vote of the country , will be much .smaller than was expected at the outset of the campaign. Democratic and Republican parties were inclined to acquiesce In the Socialist claim that Debs, the Socialist candidate for president, would poll in excess of 3,000.000 votes.- or about 10 per cent of the total expected. SOCIALISTS LOSE v . - . Since that time the Socialist program' seems to have loathsome of Its attractive ness and many of its adherents haye aligned' themselves ' with the Farmer-Labor ticket or to have been ab sorbed by the two major parties. Here in New York; where a Socialist vote of from 300.000 to 400,000 Was expected, the present estimate Js that it will fall be low 200,000. : : Christensen,. the Farmer-Labor candi date for -president, and . Malone, the candidate for governor, are expected to receive a vote yasOy more radical than the Socialist offering. Tammany leaders In New York admit that Malone will take some votes from them. One or two canvasses I have seen give Ma lone on a percentage basis as high as 80,000 votes an the state. ' SEE CLOsi FIGHT" As for as the state contest is con cerned Republican managers who are predicting 250,000- to 400,1100 majority for Harding, admit that the f lent be tween Smith and -Miller will be! close, They concede the probability off, Smith majdrtty is Anna. Democrats' hirae InH WAR settle disputes this way. rolling up a plurality of 250,000 in the greater ctty-which some of them say will Jet him win by 30,000 to 50,000. Miller's chances for winning would be greatly improved if his name were on the same ballot with Harding. As it is on a 'separate ballot Smith,' who will poll pretty nearly the full Democratic vote of the state, is certain to receive much Republican support, mainly du to Miller's wavering on state Issues and his flop on the wet and dry' contro versyv . . ' i Thompson, the Prohibition candidate who has been outlawed by - Anderson, the Anti-Saloon league boss, to help Miller, is certain to pull a great many Republican votes In one or two of j the city boroughs and several sections1 up the state.' One or two canvasses, 'cover ing every town in the state, gave him as high as 100,000 votes, which Miller . can not afford to lose. . Jj ; SMITH STRONGER THA2T COX j The confidence of Democratic leaders In Smith's chances' now amounts ' to a positive conviction that the Harding ma jority in the state will not exceed 250,000 and that Smith, who Is held by them to be at least that much stronger than Cox, will win over Miller. The betting, which favored Miller 2 to 1 two days ago, slumped Saturday night to 8 to 5. Tammany likewise Is encouraged by the unmistakable Improvement in Demo cratic chances generally to bell eye that all of its candidates for the supreme court of the First department, which takes in Manhattan and the Bronr; will pull through by substantial 'majorities. There are nine of these places-to be filled.. Five of the 13 candidates for the ! nine iplaces are assured s of election because of their indorsement of both parties. These are Gierich, Ford. Guy, Platzell and Erlanger, .The Democratic candidates who are not indorsed by the opposition are Martin McGoldrlck, Burr and Swann. Republican candidates; who failed; to secure the Democratic, indorse ment are O'Mallory, Wassovergal, Davis and McMarsh. There are also 12 other candidates who are. i.ot supported by either party. Improved Democratic chances apparently justify the hopes of the supporters of Martin, j Burr, Mc Goldrlck and -Swann that they and not their Republican competitors will pe elected. - ' j OF (Continued From T One) seniority Impossible for a new man to possess or wield.

"The stabil ity of the whole of Europe hangs upon the maintenance of the treaty and the economic situation In the United States depends on maintaining the stability and gradual recuperation of Europe's buying power. , 7 "Therefore the logic of the situation drives this constructive program to the necessary modification of the present Covenant and the ultimate ratification of the treaty with modification i or amendments." : Hoover declared Harding has "stated that he will accept all that is good in the present covenant and that America will perform her full part in this mat ter." ' . "I believe the Republican party should be trusted with the full responsibility of carrying out its- pledges," he con cluded..

Tomorrow the voters of Oregon will choose between Chamberlain and Stan field as their representative in the United States senate. When they, go to" the polls they will have balanced on the one hand the po sition, the power and the prestige of Sen iator Chamberlain built up through 12 'years of continuous service there ready for the use of Oregon during the next six years when Oregon will need power, influeace and prestige in Washington more than ever. On the other hand they will have Stanfield, whom Swift wants in the senate for selfish reasons, whom Washington and California business, financial and commercial interests want elected lor seiusn reasons. The issue in the senatorial contest, tMerefore, is the best interests of Oregon versus the best interests of Swift. Wash ington and California. Chamberlain represents Oregon. ' Stanfield, represents the rest. , NATIONAL- CAPITAL SEES i VALUE OP CHAMBERLAIN Washington.: Nov. 1. (WASHINGTON BUREAU OF THE JOURNAL.) "If I lived tn Oregon I would vote for Cham berlain." , ! I These are expressions heard from d'iy to dayiin Washington whenever the Sfen atorshlp In Oregon is mentioned, jit is expressed alike by men In official life, by newspaper men ani by others Vn less intimate touch with public affairs, with out regard to party. They are for Cham berlain, they say, not only because they like him. but because he deserves reelec tion, because be has rendered such great service to the nation, and because he can do so much j 'more than a neW man could do. ! : -' - ' Westerners In particular feel this way about) Chamberlain, because they know more fully what he 'has done for the West;1- They recall his historic speech in defense of popular government In Ore gon when it was being assailed by re actionaries of both parties. They xtSi' what h did for the restoration of the Oregon! and California land grant, for the Alaskan railroad, for irrigation de velopment and continued improvement of rivers and harbors. RECORD IS REMARKABLE Outside of this Western appeal is the great scope of his labor for the nation during the w,ar in managing the suc cessive measures for conduct of the war, in standing for the welfare of the sol dier and the reform of courtsmartiai proceedings, in taking over the fight for the food control bill, and 1A shaping the shipping act under which the Amer ican flag is, to be kept on the seas. This record speaks so strongly for It self that wonder is expressed that there should be any doubt of Oregon return ing Chamberlain to the senate. But aside from .this is the factor of, person ality, ' which counts so much .ior the success or failure of senator. By long years of service a senator can advance on the committees, but the ex tent of his influence depends in large measure upon his soundness of judg ment, his balance in days of stress, and his friendships. With these factors, one senator "gets ahead" and can accomplish things where another fails. The affec tion with which Chamberlain is regarded by .his colleagues has much to do with his success. . , COmflTTEES TOWERFt'L Another factor is that the senior senator from Oregon has gradually reached committee positions, carefully chosen and patiently earned, which en able him to give greatest service to- the state because they touch Oregon at vital points.' The commerce committee means shipping, rivers and harbors; public lands means the affairs of the national forests, parks and other re seryes. water power, coal and oil and mineral lands, homestead questions and the, public domain generally; territories means' the government and develop ment of Alaska. Both Oregon senators, realising the importance to the state of the commerce and . public lands com mittees, have secured places upon it a place of vantage Oregon could net hold ifi Chamberlain were retired, be cause two senators from the, same party from the same state cannot serve upon the same committee. It is commonly said that if Oregon realised' the value to Oregon of Cham berlain i as a senator, there would, be few votes against him, however worthy his opponent.
