Editorial Comment The Dlgrat Poll When the Literary Digest classifies California and Nevada In the Landon column, Its straw vote up to this time on the presidential race cannot be accepted seriously. Even the Re publican national committed has re luctantly conceded there la not a ghost of a chance of Roosevelt losing either California or Novada. In fact, the professional gamblers In San Francisco will wage even money that the New Deal candidate's majority In California will exceed 160,000 and they'll accept reasonable odds that his lead In this state win run better than 200,000. If the poll In other states Is as far off as It Is In Califor nia and Nevada, one need not be sur prised If Roosevelt sweeps every state In the union, Including Kansas. The complete registration figures Just released for California show the Democrats holding an edge of 636, 64a. It Is absurd to think that Lan don can overcome such a handicap. Only yesterday the Digest's vote for Los Angeles was Roosevelt 6974. Lan don 0068, or a margin of six votes for Roosevelt. The final registration figures for Los Angeles county gives the Democratic party a margin ol 333,733, and yet the Digest tries to indicate that Landon la running neck and neck with Roosevelt I Over In Nevada the Digest makes Itself similarly ridiculous by claim ing that state for Landon. The Ne vada State Journal has been polling Reno, where there are more Repub licans than In anv otaer section of the state, and the result has shown a preponderance of sentiment for Roosevelt. The published returns from Cali fornia and Nevada are silly enough to discredit the entire Digest poll. Woodland (Calif.) Democrat. U. S. GOLD RESERVE TOPS ELEVEN BILLION MARK WASHINGTON, Oct. IS.
