PROSPECTS OUTLINED
New York, Nov. 4,
With only a few hours left before the New Deal faces its test at the polls of forty-seven states, politicians all across the country concede that is the most important election since the Civil War. The general opinion seems to be that a decisive Democrat majority will be returned to Congress.
With radicalism past its peak, however, Mr. Upton Sinclair, the Communists' great hope, appears to be definitely beaten in the California gubernatorial contest. The betting in the state is five to one in favour of Governor Merriam.
The improbability of any serious Republican gains either in the House of Representatives or the Senate is ascribed to the fact that so few Republicans are willing to make an outright fight against the New Deal in view of President Roosevelt's personal popularity.
