LaGuardia, Mansfield, and Russell Win in City Elections---North Carolina Goes Definitely Dry

On the basis of returns received at 1.30 o'clock this morning, the balloting in the mayoralty contests in Cambridge, Boston, and New York City indicated that Richard M. Russell '14, Frederick W. Mansfield, and Fiorello H. LaGuardia, respectively, had been carried into office.

In Cambridge, the final reports from all eleven wards showed that Mayor Russell had received a total of 19,361 votes, while John D. Lynch, his opponent, had polled 16,571 votes. The election in Boston proved the closest of the three, with Mansfield edging out former Mayor Malcolm E. Nichols '99, by a margin of 1,892 votes. The contest was so close that a recount may be necessary. The total number of votes cast for the candidates from all 362 precincts was as follows: Mansfield, 69,731; Nichols, 67,839; Foley, 61,371; Parkman, 28,844; O'Connell, 10,204; Sullivan, 9,451.

Tammany conceded the election of Major LaGuardia as early as 10.30 o'clock last night. The latest returns, with only 242 of the 3,842 precincts unreported, were: LaGuardia, 799,297; McKee, 566,019; O'Brien, 550,321.

North Carolina has gained the distinction of being the first state to vote against repeal. The latest returns show that it is definitely dry, the vote being: Against repeal, 214,000; For repeal, 97,000. South Carolina, another of the states voting yesterday, also gives indications of going dry; the latest figures from that state are: Against repeal, 33,000; For repeal, 31,000. Pennsylvania returns are overwhelmingly wet, with 96,000 votes for repeal, and 15,000 against it. Ohio is 2-1 in favor of repeal, while Utah and Kentucky are unknown.
