PAGE TWELVE : THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1940 POPULOUS STATES HOLD "VOTE FATE PRESIDENTS Election in Large Key States in East By H. M. PETERS Canadian Press Staff Writer New York, Nov. 1.--Wendell Will- kie's chances of becoming president of the United States rested today, it was generally agreed, upon the sup- port the Republican nominee nom- inee has attracted in the densely- populated states such as Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, California, Mass- achusetts, Pennsylvania and New York. These states, and a few others such as New Jersey, Indiana and Maryland, are considered the ones most likely to turn over if Tuesday's election shows that a substantial part of President Roosevelt's follow- ing, that won the 1936 election in over-whelming fashion, has deserted him. . Roosevelt carried 46 states in 1936, losing only Maine and Vermont, for a record electoral-colleg® total of 523 to eight for Alf. M. Landon, Re- publican. In the popular vote table Roosevelt had 27,476,673 votes to 16,679,583. But that does not mean a turn- over of more than 5,000,000 votes is niecessary to defeat the president. Many states gave him enormous ma- jorities, particularly in the so-call- ed solid south, while in others his margins were much less and could be upset by a comparatively small turnover. Republican strategists argue some- thing like this: -- In 1936 Landon, it developed, was an unpopular candidate, yet he poll. ed 16,000,000 votes. Fef, if any, of these votes can be expected to switch to the president -- those who opposed him in his most popular year will surely oppose him, they claim. So on that base of 16,000,000 Re- publicans they expect to build a sub- stantial addition made up of (1) Democrats who oppose a third term; (2) Congress of Industrial Organ- izations members attracted to Will- kie by John L. Lewis' break with the president ( it was noted that many C.1.0. leaders have some out for the president, but any following Lewis takes with him would be net gain for the Republicans who be- lieve few of these. men voted for Landon). (3) Voters who for var- jous reasons are alarmed over the president's foreign policy which Willkie himself does not oppose, and (4) Democrats who broke with the president two years ago over such issues as the supreme court reorgan- ization and the "purge" of insurgent Democratic members of congress. Since the 1936 presidential elec- tion there intervened congressional elections two years ago in which 29 in Illinois, 19 in Michigan, 16 in New Jersey, 26 in Ohio, 17 in Mass- achusetts, 22 in California, 36 in Pennsylvania, 14 in Indiana and eight in Maryland. Those 10 states comprise 234 votes -- almost half of the total.

In addition the 1938 races in New York, California and several other states were much closer than in 1936. It takes 266 votes in the electoral college to elect a president., A solid bloc of these is centred in the states mentioned. Campaigning has been keen in. all of them. .

Barton, M.D. Most of us have heard the story of the man injured in an automo- bile accident who was found, on ex- amination, at the hospital, to have tatooed on his abdomen these words, "In case of accident do not remove my appendix as it has been removed three times already." Most of us have always believed that man had only one appendix, but Dr. D. E. Robertson, Toronto, in the Canadian Medical Associa- tion Journal, tells us that cases are on record in which the individual had "two appendices. Three speci- mens, one in Boston, one in Lon- don, and one described from Glas- gow, furnish the proof that moye | than one appendix may be present. | Further, each appendix may be | complete or perfect in itself, not an incomplete or partial appendix. In addition to the three speci- mens above mentioned, Dr. Robert- | son records cases of double appen- |dix reported by Drs. H. N. Pratt, | |A. B. Aitkens, A. J. E. Cave, F.| | Berthold, L. Schooler," W. G.i { Young, E. C. Prentiss, J. Boulan- {ger and others, dix exists and after the affected one has been removed by opera- tion, the other may give trouble at a later date. Another condition which, while rare, sometimes oc- curs, is where a patient under- going operation for some abdom- inal condition is found to have not even one appendix, - I believe that if we keep these facts in mind we can understand why second operations for appen- dicitis may sometimes be neces- sary. The above facts pointed out by Dr. Robertson will keep surgeons during operation to be ever on the [lookout for the possibility of a se- cond appendix being present. GAMERA RECORDS RCAF.

From the thousands accumulate ing, those suitable to tell a cone nected story will be selected by the official air force historian, Sqdn.= Ldr. Kenneth Conn, of Ottawa, Many odd jobs fall to the lot of these staff photographers, They are on hand to greet Australian stu- dents arriving at the Pacific coast to complete their air training in Canada. Sometimes it is a camera shot which records the last glimpse of a convoy setting out from East ern Canada's coastal ports. Some- times they are shots taken from the air as far as 400 miles out to sea. When wings are pinned on sa proud young pilot's tunic the afr force photographers' pictures tell the story. Or when a mother smiles even more proudly at a young air- man after he has received his wings the cameraman may think that worth recording too. The cameramen are there to em- phasize the human element in Can- ada's air story just as much as the mechanical progress.
