several of those whose indictments were 
to he nolle pressed. 
The J ‘omooratie party November 7 re¬ 
versed the unprecedented advantage won 
by the Republican party two years ago. 
It carried (die State of New York by a 
hitherto unprecedented majority, elected 
an increased number of members to the 
House of Representatives, but failed ro 
win control of either body. In New York 
Stale the Democratic victory was clear- 
out and decisive. Former Governor "Al” 
Smith was elected to succeed Nathan L. 
Miller In a majority of around 400,000. 
I'nited States Senator t’alder also went 
down to defeat. I>r. Copeland, the Demo¬ 
cratic nominee, probably will receive a 
majority of .’137.000 in rhe city districts. 
In l’enuKylvilnia (iifford 1’inchot is elected 
Governor over John K. MeSparran 
(Dem.) by a substantial but greatly re¬ 
duced Republican majority. Senators 
l’eppor and Reed- Republicans received 
larger majorities than Mr. Pinchot. In 
Rhode Island Senator Gerry (Dem. i has 
beaten former Governor lteeeknmn for 
the Senate. In Michigan Senator Town¬ 
send and former Governor Walbrige Fer¬ 
ris fought a closely contested race for the 
seat now held by Mr. Townsend, the lat¬ 
ter winning. In Connecticut Senator 
McLean (Rep.) was re-elected by a 
greatly reduced majority. Smith W. 
Brookhnrt. the radical Republican candi¬ 
date for the Senate in Iowa, carried the 
Slate against his Democratic opponent, 
Clyde W. Herring. 
The Egg-laying Contest at Storrs 
The egg-laying contest at Storrs for 
1922 ended October 30, with White Leg¬ 
horns its the winners. In tin* last 10 
years White Legorns, White Wyaudottes 
and Haired Rocks have each stood ai the 
head three times. In 1919 the "Oregons” 
won first place, with an average of 235.2 
per bird This high average, has only 
been exceeded once, and that was in the 
P.II.’! contest, when only five birds in 
each pen contested The winning pen 
that year were White Leghorns, and they 
averaged 23.X eggs per bird This average 
has never been equaled at Stores since. 
The winning pen this year is from 
Hollywood Farm, Hollywood, Washing¬ 
ton. They have laid 2,21 s - eggs, or an 
average of 221.S eggs per bird, beating 
all other pens by 51 eggs. White Wyan¬ 
dotte* from Rhode Island were second, 
with a record of 2,1(57 eggs, and a pen of 
Marred Rocks from Long Island were 
third, with a score of 2.125 eggs. Three 
other pens averaged over 200 eggs per 
bird: two of the three were White Wyait- 
dottes; one pen from Woodbridge. Conn., 
averaged 203.7. and the other, from Tot- 
tington. England, averaged 200.8 per 
bird. A pen of Marred Rocks from 
Cazenovia, N. Y„ averaged 204.3. 
As showing the difference between good 
layers and poor ones, the three poorest 
pens in the contest were a pen of White 
lloeks, which averaged HH.4. a pen of 
White Wyaudottes, 10S.5, and a pen of 
White Leghorua, 104,3. 
The lowest w inning score was made in 
1939, when a pen of Marred Rocks won 
with an average per bird of only 202,2. 
The Rhode Island Reds have never won 
a contest tit Storrs. The best pen of 
that breed at Storrs this year averaged 
194.(5. The fairest way to judge of the 
comparative value of the ditlerent breeds 
as layers is to take the average of all 
the pens of each breed, good, bad and 
indifferent. The table behnv shows that:

ber of lO.lti-S deaths, an increase of

vehicles, exclusive of motorcycles, the 
Department of tVnnuierce announces. 
The report covers 34 of 4S States. Re¬ 
turns compiled by the Census Bureau 
showed that in these six States the death 
rate was 11.5 per 100,090 of population, 
as compared with 10.4 iu 1920. Among 
the cities of lOOJMKt or more population 
Los Angeles had the highest death rate, 
and California led all the States. New 
York State registered the largest number 
of actual deaths with 1,632. an increase 
of 222. Total deaths in the cities were 
4,415, an increase of 299. The death rate 
per 100,000 of population in the citips 
was 15.8. an increase of 0-8. New York 
City had the largest number of deaths, 
SS5, an increase of 112. or more than 10 
per cent. Chicago was second with 509. 
an increase of 97. Albany showed the 
largest increase in rate over 1920, with 
I5.o per cent. 
As the result of auction sales held at 
the Hog Island. Pennsylvania, shipyard 
on November 1. 2 and 3, all the material 
has been disposed of except equipment 
necessary to carry on current work, the 
Shipping Hoard announced November 5. 
Tins equipment, which consists chiefly of 
locomotive cranes, fixtures and automo¬ 
biles necessary ro the delivery of goods 
already sold, will also be disposed of at 
auction in the near future in anticipation 
of placing on sale the entire lL.g Island 
plant, with sill the real estate included. 
The British government has directed 
the further payment of $50,000,000 to 
the United States ou November 15 to 
apply on the interest due on the war 
debt, pending an agreement between the 
two governments for the funding of the 
debt. This measure was made necessary 
by the unavoidable delay in sending a 
British debt mission to America, caused 
by the resignation of the Lloyd George 
ministry.
