NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Republicans of Massachusetts are united in interpreting the results of the CRIMSON poll as demonstrating that the radical vote is behind President Roosevelt this year, and Democrats were entirely satisfied with the poll.

William J. Hammond '37, president of the Landon-Knox clubs, said "Results of the CRIMSON poll . . . clearly indicate that socialistic element have switched from Norman Thomas to Mr. Roosevelt, while those believing in maintaining the standard of American democracy have marked for approval the candidacy of Alfred M. Landon."

William A. Kirstein '38 of the executive board of the Harvard Roosevelt Club said "We are entirely satisfied with the poll. A conclusion, if any is to be drawn, is entirely favorable to the liberal cause for which Franklin D. Roosevelt stands." No comment was made at the Democratic State Committee.
