News Review of Current
Events the World Over
Great Democratic Landslide That Carried Roosevelt and
Garner to Victory ? Gossip About the
IS'ext President's Cabinet.
By EDWARD W. PICKARD
O IPIXG triumphantly upon the crest
^ of a tremendous wave of discon
tent. Franklin Delano Roosevelt was
elected President of the United States.
the thirty-second man
to win to thai lofty
eminence. Herbert
Hoover went down to
cataclysmic defeat he
cause of conditions
and circumstances be
yond Ills control and
not of his making.
The sovereign people
of the nation wanted
a change, n "new
deal." that might con
Franklin D. ceivably bring about
Roosevelt an Improvement in
business and nidus
try and provide Jobs for the millions
of unemployed. So they went to the
polls and got the change.
The defeat of the Republican na
tional ticket was the greatest sus
tained by a major party in more than
a century. Governor Roosevelt car
ried forty-two states and has a vote
of 472 in the electoral college. Pres
Ident Hoover won in only Maine, Con
necticut. Delaware. New Hampshire.
Vermont aud Pennsylvania. His elec
toral college vote Is fifty-nine. The
Demccratlc candidate was COfl votes In
excess of the 2GC necessary to a
choice. Moreover, when the victor
takes office next March he will have
backing him a congress controlled by
the Democrats, for they won majority
in the senate and increased the ma
Jority they already had in the house
of representatives. Among the nota
hie Republican senators who were
overwhelmed by the deluge were Hi
ram Bingham of Connecticut. Reed
Smoot of Utah, James E. Watson of
Indiana. Otis F. Glenn of Illinois and
Georee II. Moses of New Hampshire.
Brookhart of Iowa. Rlalne of Wiscon
sin and Shortrldge of California had
been eliminated In the primaries.
Though New York with its 47 elec
toral votes had been considered the
crucial battleground. Roosevelt as it
turned out did not need It to win.
However, he curried his home state by
about 042.0??0 plurality because of the
immense plurality of about
given him by Greater New York city.
Llnet. Gov. I!. 11. Lehman led the na
tional and state tickets, winning the
governorship over "Wild Bill" Dono
van by nearly a million votes. Sen
ator Robert F. Wagner easily won re
election. Among the well known New
York congressmen defeated were Flo
rello La Guardla and Ruth Baker Pratt.
DKMOCRATS Of Illinois, with the
aid of thousands of Republicans,
not only gave Roosevelt and Garner
a handsome plurality but elected their
entire state ticket. At
Its head was Judge
Henry Horner of Chi
cago. who swamped
Len Small In the race
for the governorship.
This was not surpris
ing. for Small's rec
ord as state treasurer
and governor was pe
culiarly open to at
tack, while the only
argument against Hor
ner was that his elec
tion would add
strength to the pow
erful machine built up by Mayor An
ton Cermak of Chicago. Congressman
William H. Dieterich was successful
In displacing Senator Otis F. Glenn.
In Wisconsin the La Follette follow
ing. defeated in the primaries, threw
its strength to the Democrats, and the
conservative Republicans, led by Wal
ter Kobler for governor, were defeated.
A. G. Schmedeinan of Madison was
elected governor, and F. Ryan Duffy
defeated young Editor Chappie for
the senatorship. Senator Jim Wat
son's victorious opponent In Indiana
was Frederick Van Nuys; and Paul
V. McNutt was chosen governor of
the Hoosier state. Henry Field, who
whipped Senator Rrookhart in the
Iowa primaries, went down in the de
bacle, and Louis Murphy, wet Demo
crat, was elected senator. Brookhart,
who ran as an independent, received
a pitifully small vote.
Governor Roosevelt received the
congratulations of President Hoover,
and his promise to "dedicate myself
to every possible helpful effort," by
wire from Palo Alto. He calmly
beard the rejoicings of hit close as
sociates in the campaign, and then
went to Albany to take jip the task
of adjusting the New York state
budget. A group of leading Deroo
avats la tke senate and house, as soon
John N.
Garner
as his victory was assured, tele
graphed him urging thut he enuncl
ate as soon as possible his program
for combating the depression. and
asking especially that he tell the
country whether or not he planned
to call a special session of congress (
immediately after his Inauguration tr
deal with rhe tariff. It was intimate*4 ?
in Washington that Mr. R?n?seve!t
might assume at once 'he leadership j
of his party and direct Its domes in 1
rhe final session of the Seventy sreond
congress during the winter Since the ,
nation's problems are so grave and
really not partisan. It would he grati
fying to the people to see the Presl
dent-elect and his party co-openting
sincerely with the administration of
President Hoover in seeking their so
lution. With the election ended so
decisively, this delightful dream
might be realized.
MU. ROOSEVELT at least proposes
to try to get his program for na
tional recovery started during the
coming short session of congress. He
let it be known that he would Invite
the leaders of the present senate and
house to a conference at his winter
home at Warm Springs, Ga., where
he will spend two weeks at Thanks
giving time, and will plan with them
what ran he done without waiting for
his Inauguration. Farm relief espe
cially will be discussed. Mr. Roosevelt
has plans to eld agriculture, by a do
mestic tariff to be levied on certain
basic crops such as wheat, corn and
cotton.
It is likely, too. that a measure to
legalize beer will be put through the
lame duck session of congress if the
plans of the wets work out. though
the orya will fight It as long as they
can. and they are still In the major
Uy In both houses. Many of the states
on election day voted to repeal their
dry laws, and the next congress will
be controlled by wets.
GREAT Interest Is now evinced In
the makeup of Roosevelt's cab
inet. Before the election he an
nounced that he had made uo com
mitments. and to date
he has made known
none of his selections.
Political gossip was
that Al Smith's recon
ciliation with Roose
velt was based on
virtual assurance that
the latter would not
consider any of the
Independent Republic
ans for cabinet posi
tions, and this was
taken Into considera
tion also by other con
servative Democratic
leaders who feared nothing else would
so alarm business as the selection of
radicals for positions of Importance.
It was not thought likely that Mr.
Smith would himself accept a place
iu the cabinet but possibly he might
be appointed chairman of a commis
sion to reorganize the federal govern
menL
Mention as possible cabinet mem
bers were John W. Davis or Newton
D. Baker for secretary of state; Mel
vin A. Traylor or Owen D. Young
for secretary of the treasury ; Nation
al Chairman James Farley Tor post
master general ; Governor Ritchie. Sen
ators Glass. Walsh of Montana and
Harrison; former Gov. Harry Byrd of
Virginia and Bernard Baruch.
ONE outstanding result of the elec
tion was the immediate launching
of a general movement among the for
eign debtors of the United States to
obtain revision or cancellation of their
debts. They seemed to think the
change of administration would give
them as well as the people of the
United States a "new deal." It was
said Ambassador Sir Ronald Lindsay
informed the State department Great
Britain could not continue Its war
debt payments without seriously dis
locating her financial structure; and
Washington received dispatches from
several other nations saying they
would have to default on the pay
ments due in November and Decem
ber. Under the war debt funding
agreements the treasury can allow
postponement of payment on principal
f two years, hut only congress can
arrange for postponement of interest
payments.
CUBA suffered the greatest disaster
Id the history of the Island when
a tropical hurricane struck Its south
ern shores. The entire province of
Camagney was devastated, the town
Alfred E.
Smith
of Santa Crux de! Sur was ut
terly wiped out and other placet. In
cluding the city of Camaguey. were
partly wrecked. The number of dead Is
uncertain at this writing but the mayor
of Ca maguey said his Information
was that It would reach at least 1.500.
The first official figures at Havana
were considerably less. Thousands of
persons were Injured and the proper
ty losses were Immense. At Santa
Crux del Sur a wall of water described
as being 20 feet high whs driven fire
leagues Inland by the terrific gale.
GERMANY also had an election, and
Is struggling with the tangled
condition resulting therefrom. It was
held to choose members o' the reicb
stag, for the fifth
time In 103*J. and was
as Indecisive as those
preceding it. No po
litical party won a
majority In the assem
bly. but Chancellor
Von Papen neverthe
less declared his gov
ernment would viot
relinquish power. The
outstanding result of
the election. In which
35.500.000 voters cast Franz von
their ballots, was the Papen
loss sustained by
Hitler's Nazis. They have only 195
deputies in the new reichstag Instead
of their 230 In the last chamber. On
the other hand the Communists made
big gains, electing 100 members. The
Von Papen government can count on
only about 60 votes In the assembly,
and the opinion was expresed In Ber
lin that President Von (llndenburg
would havp to effect a reorganization
that would retire the chancellor to
private life.
ARMISTICE day was selected as
the date for the wedulug of John
D. Rockefeller III. heir to all the un
counted Rockefeller millions, and Miss
Blanchette Hooker.
The ceremony was
performed In River
side church. New York
city, by Rev. Harry R.
Fosdick, the pastor.
The bride, who Is a
daughter of the Elon
^ Huntington Hookers
of New York and
mWhy ? Greenwich, had as her
P maid of honor her
sister, Helen, and two
J. D. Rock*, other sisters. Barbara
feller III and Adelaide, were
attendants. The
bridesmaids were Mrs. H. Edward
Bilkey and the Misses Mary French,
Faith Rockefeller. Diantha Walker,
and Virginia Furman.
Nelson A- Rockefeller was best man
for his brother, and the ushers Includ
ed a cousin of the bridegroom. Avery
Rockefeller, us well as three brothers.
David. Laurence and Wlnthrop Rock
efeller, and a brother-in-law, David
Milton.
DIRECTOR of the Budget J. Law
son Roup Is busy now with the
work of reducing by at least $lfiO.OOO,
000 the estimates of expenditures for
the 1H34 fiscal year as submitted by
the beads of government departments
and Independent establishments.
As a flret move the budget director's
office weeded nil items of expendi
ture in the 1033 appropriations which
will not recur this next year. These
Included some $60,000,000 expended
for wheat for Red Cross distribution,
around $200,000,000 slated for ex
penditures on ?ubllc works under the
$2,000,000,000 reconstruction bill, and
about $1)0.000.000 In other Items.
SENATOR BORAH of Idaho, chair
man of the senate committee on
foreign relations, went to Washington
immediately after the election and be
gan hearings on the
treaty providing for
Joint construction of
the St. Lawreuce wa
terway by the United
States and Canada.
He will give a chance
to all Interested par
ties. and probably
hearings will be held
In both New York
and Chicago.
Vigorous opposition
to senate ratification Senator Borah
of the treaty already
has developed. Indications were that
the opposition will be centered around
the section permitting Canadian au
thority over Lake Michigan to the ex
tent of limiting the Chicago water di
version, the power features of the
$500,000,000 project, and the divisions
of cost between the United States and
Canada.
FOR three days the United States
fleet held maneuvers off Los An
geles harbor under simulated battle
conditions, with nearly one hundred
vessels participating. The ships In
cluded three plane carriers, about six
ty destroyers from the San Diego base, ,
thirteen cruisers, four of the V-typ?
submarines and ten auxiliary craft.
In addition to the battleships now
present In that area.
