CONCERN OVF.B STAND TRIBUTE TO HIS POWER DECLARE HE PROMISED TO SUPPORT DEWEY BELIEVED THINKING OF OWN CHANCES IN 11140 WASHINGTON, Nov. 7. -Florello La, Guard la 'a support of Herbert Leh man for the New York governorship la no more delightful to the Demo crats than It is disappointing to the Republicans. The tremendous pother mads about the stand of the bounc ing, energetic little mayor, who Is, after all. a member of neither major party, serves to dramatize his re markable political power. His stand is unusually interesting, as a revelation of the political guess ing of one of the smartest politicians In the country. It can only mean that La Guardia thinks his own best bet Is a firm, unqualified alliance with the liberal progressive forces. In effect. It is the sequel of his 1936 decision to leave the Republicans and register with the American labor party. For, by sliRhtlng Tom Dewey, La Guardia has cut himself off for ever from his former friends among Nrw York Republicans. Ty put it bluntly, the- Republican leaders charge La Guardia with a betrayal. The say that La Guardia promised to side with Dewey, and they make their story very circum stantial. They assert that the pro mise was first volunteered at a break fast to which La Guardia invited one of Dewey's closest advisers: that It was reiterated when La Guardia lunched with the same man Just be fore the New York Republican con vention: and that It was confirmed In a telephone conversation with an exceedingly important Republican who hu been iseful to La Guardia on many occasions. Knowing La Guard la's basic pol itical inclinations, they hardly expected- him to go so far as open indorsement of the Republican can didate. But knowing his thorough de testation of Governor Lehman, they did hope thnt the mayor would re main neutral. La Guardia probably dislikes Lehman more than any other man. He has given vent to his feel Ines on many occasions, In such outbursts of scorn as, "My fore fathers were organ-grinders when his were great financiers, but God Al mighty, I know more about finance than he ever will." The Republicans also took care to court Ia Guardia, by choosing Edward Corst, his dep uty welfare commissioner, first may oral campaign manager and Intimate friend, for one of the senate nom inations. In the light of hindsight, the Re publican hope for La Guardia's help seems a trifle unrealistic. Long ago. the mayor threw In his lot with President Roosevelt and the new (Continued on Page Six ) SIDE GLANCES by TRIBUNE REPORTERS Forester Slmeri Jarvl having to cook for 30 4-H club boys, he belli? slightly puzzled by the menu which called for creamed hamburger and other delicacies not asoclated with the rugged outdoors.

"'- BIlSUiTPILOTS FOR NON-STOP FLIGHT PORT DARWIN, Australia, Nov. 7. (AP) Nine young British airmen captured the world's non-stop dis tance record for the royal air force today after a flight across Indian Jungles and southern seas from ; Ismail la, Egypt. j Two of the three Vickers Wellealey bombers In which they flew roared Into Port Darwin shortly after noon, having covered approximately 7,160 miles In a few minutes over 48 hours for an average speed of 149 miles an hour.

And the Soviet flight took longer 62 hours and 17 minutes. A large crowd, which had awaited their arrival at the airport, cheered when the grinning fliers climbed from their planes.

PROMISES TO CUT OFF-YEARVOT1NG Major Portion of Nation Be set by Snow or Rain On Eve of Election G. 0. P. Gain Seen by Leaders (By .The Associated Press) Candidates for office wound up their campaigns today while casting an anxious eye at weather reports. Party workers, taking over the vital task of getting out the vote, aimed at a turnout of 40.000,000 men and women voters tomorrow, to establish an off-year record. Accumulating forecast of disagreeable weather, however, made that prediction shaky. Almost all the nation was wet with snow or rain today and. except for spotty areas, the prediction was for cloudy or worse weather to morrow. G. O. P. Gain Expected Amid the valedictories which ended months of political turbulence, the belief prevailed in both major parties Republicans would make congres sional gains for the first time since 1928. Not even the most optimistic Re publicans, however, hoped to over turn the huge Democratic majorities in senate and house. Their avowed goal was to cut them down as much as possible. They forecast Democratic losses of a half dozen or more senate seats and of 76 or 80 In the house. Democratic Chairman James A. Farley called such a prediction ab surd, although he said It "would be idle to deny" some Democratic house members would lose. Most prominent Democrats figure the house turnover at 25 to 60, and concede two or three senators and as many governors, to the .opposition Xew'PenI Main IsMie Altogether the voters In 47 states will choose 35 senators, 432 repre sentatives, 32 governors and a host of state and county officials. Maine voted In September, reelecting its Republican governor and three Re publican representatives. In the noisy and colorful national campaign, both sides have acknowl edged the New Deal to be the prin cipal issue an Issue on which the Democratic party rolled up ever- lncrcaslng victories In. the last three elections. John L. Lewis, declaring that "labor stands firm In support of the New Deal social legislation," expressed the argument of Roosevelt supporters when he said last night: "Tomorrow's election decides wheth er the substantial social gains writ ten on the law books In tho past six years are to remain and be extended. "Underlying the campaign fanfare is the fate of such new deal meas ures as the social security act, the national labor relations act, the works progress administration and the stmllar legislation aimed to make life bearable for the two-thirds of the population In the lower and medium income brackets." Measures At Ntake Lewis' statement, as head of la bor's Non-parltlsan league, surprised some politicians, for he and Mr. Roosevelt have not always had amic able relations In the past two years.
