Many service units will be merged into ser- vice battalions as is being done in the regular army, As announced previously by Mr. Hellyer, the strength of the militia wil be reduced to about 30,000 from the cur- rent, 47,000. The militia, which now has nearly 400 units, has been costing around $35;000,000 a year. This allotment will be reduced to nearly $26,000,000 a year.

The public opinion polls all pointed at President Johnson as a landslide winner over Repub- lican Barry Goldwater, But the Arizona senator drew first blood. Both men made their last ap- peals in home territory Monday night--Johnson calling for an "overwhelming repudiation of the small minority which has seized the Republican party." Goldwater, with a final stop at little Fredonia in the butte country of Arizona, again de- nounced big government as a menace and said "my whole campaign... has been directed to warning Americans of the \dangers that lie in this philos- lophy." The little mountain hamlet of Dixville, N.H., all of whose eight voters: are Republicans, voted unanimously for Goldwa- ter a minute after polls opened at midnight Monday night--just as it did for Republican presi- dential candidate Richard Nixon in 1960.

Roose- velt in 1936 when he routed Alf Landon, The Republicans then got only eight electoral college votes--Vermont and Maine. The campaign itself es om officially in early Sep r went down as one of the most vituperative in modern .Ameri- can history but one shy.of de- bate on concrete platform planks. For Johnson, the pitch was peace, prudence at the nuclear trigger, prosperity and national unity. His weak spot was hon- esty in government. For Goldwater, the big issue, he said frequently, was to stop the advance of socialism at home and communism abroad. He protested against being la- belled as trigger - happy and plumped for military strength as a wise course to avoid war. He banged hard at moral cor- ruption, particularly at the White House level. He: had trouble in the. reaction caused by his views on agriculture-- gradual end to multiple sup- ports, and social security, which he insisted he wanted to expand rather than cut. While the popular. vote today will undoubtedly tell the story here, the 538-member college of presidential electors -- an ar- chaic device established by the founding U.S. fathers--will for- mally pick either Johnson or Goldwater Dec, 14... gressmen, will be elected by the popular vote today. Johnson needs at least 270 electoral votes to win and, if the polls are right, may sweep all but a handful of states.
