"The same things are true of the campaign here in the state, re sulting ht the overwhelming elec tion of Clyde R Hoey as governor and of the other Democratic can didates. Mr. HOey’s personality was a big factor, but the biggest factor was the past record of the Demo cratic party in the state, the fact that it has given the state con sistently good government for 36 years and that it has a definite program for the future of the state where the Republican party has none. The people of North Caro lina. like the people of the nation, are too Intelligent and too enlight ened to trade something definite and worthwhile for nothing or to trade horses in the middle of a river. When they have something that has been tested and proven, they are not going to throw it away." The rttults of Tuesday’s election also show that the Democrats of North Carolina was "regular” and that, the Republican leaders were following a forlorn hope and a will •o-the wisp when they maintained that many "liberal” Democrats would bolt the party and vote for Lafidoh and Grissom Instead of for Roosevelt and Hoey. Chairman Wlnbome said. Instead, a great any Republicans voted for Roose velt and Hoey or at any rate for Roosevelt, Wlnbome is confident. "The reason that few If any Democratic ticket here In North Carolina Is that here a Democrat is a Democrat first, last and all the time, even though they may differ among themselves and have hot primary campaigns," Chairman Winborne said. “When a Democrat gets in a voting booth and looks at the two tickets, he is going to vote the straight Democratic ticket ev ery time. Perhaps some day the Republicans here In North Caro lina will wake up to that fact and stop tiring to stir up trouble among the Democrat* In the hope of con verting the losers Into Republicans In the general election."

Lan don 15,447,771. Aa lor electoral votes, there has been no such lop-sided victory since the early days of the Republic, when George Washington got the full electoral vote of every state voting and James Monroe got all except one vote. The returns today seemed to clinch the indications of yesterdaly that the score would read Roosevelt 523, Landon 8 when congress goes through the formality of counting the votes in January. Landon still had only Maine and Vermont. Late returns on senate and house contests emphasised the crushing character of the Democratic tri umph. With most contests already decided, it appeared the Democrats would have 75 of the 96 senators. Congran Almost Solid For the house, the Democrats had elected at least 329 members, a new high record. Eighty-nine Re publicans had won seats, six Pro gressives, five Farmer-Laborites, and six chairs remained In doubt. Among the senators who will swell the Democrats majority are five who wrested seats from Republi cans. They are James H. Hughes, of Delaware, Prentiss Brown of Michigan, William H. Smathers of New Jersey, Theodore Francis Green of Rhode Island and H. H. Schwarts of Wyoming. One satisfaction for the minority was the victory of Henry Cabot Lodge, jr„ who beat Governor James M. Curley, Democrat, for a senate seat from Massachusetts. McNary of Oregon, Republican, won after a race that was in doubt for a time. Dickinson of Iowa trailed. The Democratic congressional vic tory, the fourth successive one at the polls, virtually had wiped out the last traces of the famous sena torial “Old Guard” which once dominated the senate chamber un der the chieftainship of such men as Watson, Reed and Smooth. Moreover, Tuesday's election made breaks up or a reformation of party certain that, unless the solid south lines occurs, the Democrats will have control of the senate ‘hough out President Roosevelt’s second term, and probably until 1943. The siae of the Democratic ma jorities raised problems for leaders who win have to try to weld them into an efficient legislative machine. Past experience has taught that large majorities are prone to split into factions and blocs. Democratic Governor* As the tally continued on the governorships, of which 33 were at state In Tuesday’s balloting. Demo cratic candidates had captured 25 and were battling hard for two of the three chairs still in doubt. Re publicans had taken only three. In North Dakota, Governor Walt Wel ford, Republican, trailed slightly behind William Langer, Independ ent. Governor Philip La Follette, Pro gressive, won decisively in Wiscon sin, and Elmer Benson, Parmer Labor, In Minnesota. Candidates, from the party stand ard bearers down, began a period of relaxation from the strenuous campaign. President Roosevelt ex pressed appreciation for an “ava lanche” of congratulations he re ceived. Governor Landon. who had exchanged courteous greetings with President Roosevelt expected to go I duck hunting in a few days.” Prom many sides came declara ’ tions that the strife must be for gotten and all factions pull togeth Fascist Planes Are Shot Down (Continued from page one) withering bursts of anti-aircraft fire. Whipped to a fever lighting pitch, the fresh troops hurried forward amid the roar of a fierce artillery duel between Fascist and Socialist guns only a few miles beyond the outskirts of the capital.

Insurgent commanders at Avila, whose forces were reported within four miles of the capital, declared Fascist batteries were ready to fire "some well-placed shells into the center” of Madrid.
