PAGE TWELVE THE FRANKLIN PRESS and THE HIGHLANDS MACONIAN THURSDAY, OCTOBER 10, MSI ROOSEVELT MAKES GAINS (Continued from Page One) and the tabulations sent to mem ber newspapers. National returns thus far have been too limited to give any correct idea of the trend of political sentiment. We hope, however, to be in position next week to publish our first tabulation of national returns in "Our Next President Poll." Vote Your Preference There is still time to vote in this poll; it is just getting well under way. Let's all vote our respective favorites and let voters in other states know how we stand here in North Carolina. The poll is a strictly non-partisan vote which does not politically commit you in any manner. It is not official, but purely a straw vote, and in nature, a direct pri mary vote which gives citizens a chance to indicate to party leaders which candidates are preferred and the ticket upon which they would like to see those candidates make the race in 1936. Again, may we suggest, that you clip, vote and mail the "Our Next President" ballot above, to this newspaper today. Big Double Circus Will Present Vast Program FOREST STAFF CHANGES HADE W. L.
