jobs. Twas the most complete victory’
any party has. éver ‘achieved. in-that
country, even putting in ‘the:shade the
record vietory of Hoover rover. ‘AL
Smith four years ago.

President Hoover, at, “midnight Tues-
day had. a. majority in only seven states.
of the forty-eight, and one or two of
those were close, and were the old Re-
pibican strongholds. The’ South al!
wot back into line aguin and went sol .
id for Roosevelt, the present governor
of New York State aad nephew ‘of the
late President’ Theodore Roosevelt,

In New York State Roosevelt secur-
cd & plurality of about a million, al-
though he lost to Heover in his own
little burg. But. when it came to the
home state of President Hoover the
vote went about one and a half to one
fn favor of Roosevelt. .

Although only some.‘eleven million

. Yates of On expected thirty five or for-

ty million, hed been tabulated at. the
political headquarters, Roosevelt had’
ft. majority. of. fh. couple. of: million, and
fis” ‘the naditonal votes" wares went” try
they all indicated the same Tatio of
the voting. In only a few states war
there any changing back and forth, and
those states usually landed in the
Democratic column.

The midnight reports. gave the fol-
lowing seven states.in the Hoover col-
timnn:~ Deleware, Maine, | Montana
New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, . Ver:
numt and Idaho.

In the electoral college Roosevelt
won 452 votes, to Hoover's 78, the big-
sost majority. ever recorded in the
history of the. country.

Long hefore titidnight President Hoo-
rer at his home in California, conceed-.
