ROOSEVELT CONTINUES TO LEAD IN POLL Hoover Has Slim Margin In New York Straw Vote Indicates Hoover Demo crats of 1928 Returning To Fold Roosevelt Polling Heavy Vote In Republican Pennsylvania The sixth tabulation of the nation wide Presidential poll reveals that the Roosevelt-Garner ticket is still tar in the lead and gaining momen tum as the returns are tabulated week by week. The week’s total gives the following results: Roosevelt - 142,140 Hoover-- 90,151 Commenting on the present results the Hearst papers say "Roosevelt Js holding 95 per cent of those who voted the Democratic ticket four years ago. Hoover is losing 37 per cent _of his former backers to Roose velt.” This viewpoint is corroborat ed by the preliminary returns given out by the Literary Digest, which 6how that 27,654 straw votes for Roosevelt already tabulated, 10,927 voted for Mr. Hoover in 1928. Out of the 28,193 reported for Mr. Hoov er by the Digest only 1,738 voted for Smith in last presidential election. The Hearst returns for the week are given as follows: w nwvci ivwacvcii Alabama - 308 2532 Arizona _ 318 710 Arkansas _ 406 1649 California - 6042 13014 Colorado -1681 1664 Connecticut^ _3282 1963 Delaware *_ 551 583 Florida _ 551 1848 Georgia - 267 2479 Idaho _ 674 8 58 Illinois -5636 8 542 Indiana -4345 5211 Iowa -2493 3401 Kansas -2676 2505 Kentucky _2938 5375 Louisiana _ 232 1236 Maine _1165 729 Maryland_ 902 2126 Massachusetts _4664 2168 Michigan _4872 ,5266 Minnesota _^~tl 955 2*809 Mississippi __~__t_.1 166 15/8 Missouri _3506 5491 Montana__ 984 1133 Nebraska __1268 2223 Nevada -1 113 295 New Hampshire_ 915 45 5 New Jersey _4625 4178 New Mexico ___ 378 470 New York _1_12275 115 56 North Carolina _1464 5740 North Dakota _ 5 81 826 !

Gov ernor Roosevelt is in the lead with 37 states, while President Hoover has a majority in the remaining 11 states. The Literary Digest in reporting its first returns give the following ta bulation, which may be compared with those of the Hearst newspapers by the reader. These returns are ns follows: State Hoover Roosevelt Jnd&na _L_1109 907 New York _i_14933 11910 Ohio _ 143 3 1441 Pennsylvania v- 9142 11221 West Virginia _ 1576 2175 All of the above states were in the Hoover column four years ago. Perhapss one of the most interest ing features of the Literary Digest anjd Hearst polls is to be noticed in the returns from the state of Penn sylvania, which records its vote at this time in both polls for Governor Roosevelt. If the straws indicate the way the political wind is blowing this year, Pennsylvania may give the country the biggest upset in the elec - tion. Mr. Edwin C. Hill, reporting the returns of various Pennsylvania cities in the Digest poll over the radio which returns were published within the past week in the New York Times, gives the following summary: Penna. Cities Hoover Roosevelt Pittsburg _1_1097 95 5 Allen down _ 19S 299 Bethlehem ___ 72 95 Harrisburg _ i43 193 Chester . 126 131 Reading ... 2 34 3 55 Scranton _ 321 432 In 1928 Scranton gave Governor Smith a majority; the other cities were in the Hoover column. The lat er polls may change the results to a considerable degree, but it may ‘be noticed with interest that Pennsyl vania has been in Roosevelt camp since the beginning of the Hearst poll, which started six weeks ago. lour years ago the Hearst poll showed the state in the Hoover column by an overwhelming majority from the very beginning, and in November of that year Mr., Hoover carried Pennsylvania by nearly one million majority.

Billions Spent For Machinery By Farmers American Farmers Invest Almost $3,500,000,000 In Implement's And Automobiles American farmers have an invest ment of almost $3,500,000,000 in machinery, implements and automo biles, and spend approximately $400, 000,000 annually in replacements, ac cording to a survey just completed by the new uses section of 'the Cotton Textile institute, New Yory city. The survey was undertaken with a view to determine the investment value of coverings, such as cotton tarpauling, which would lessen the damage suffered by farm machinery when left exposed to the elements without protection. Information was obtained indicating that' more farm equipment rusts out of service than is rendered unserviceable by wear and tear. Of the total investment, $ 1,423, 000,000 is the value of machinery and implements. The remainder is the investment in 4,134,625 automo biles, 900,304 trucks and 920,378 tractors which the latest census cre dits to the farmers of the United States. Tractors are often left un protected. Included in the machin ery group, they would add some $360,000,000 to make a total invest ment of $1,783,000,000 in farm equipment, the usefulness of which is more apt to be impiared by rust than by actual service wear.
