bate Court.

ner-up Judge James Sexton,
who was running for re-elec-
tion, by 1813 votes.

whelmingly re-elected State

defeated for the post of Michi-
gan's Attorney General by the
incumbent, Paul Adams, drew
1,000,000 votes.

The unique campaign con-
ducted in New York by Nelson
Rockefeller, th successful Re-
publican candidate for Gover-
nor, is credited with having
won for him the votes of many
Jews, Italians and Puerto
Ricans who previously voted
Democratic.
Incumbent Averell Harriman,
on the eve of the election, lost
the support of Dorothy Schiff,
publisher of the New York
Post, who resented Harriman's
charge that Rockefeller was
pro-Arab. The Post's publisher
pointed to Rockefeller's gen-
erous support of the United
Jewish Appeal and condemned
Harriman's statement by sup-
porting Rockefeller.

after his victory, that he would
leave immediately for the
South to look for "on the spot
evidence which we can use in
support of legislation that may
make it a Federal offense to
bomb houses of worship."
Keating was one of a few
successful Republican Senator-
ial candidates to overcome the
national Democratic tide which
gave Democrats 62 of the 96
seats in the Senate and better
than a two-thirds majority of
Congress.
The result of the Democratic
national victories will be to
make the Administration more
dependent than ever on Demo-
cratic agreement over foreign
policies.
Elsewhere in the nation, one
of the most interesting devel-
opments was the overwhelming
victory of Abe Ribicoff, in Con-
necticut. T h e
50 - year - old
son of Jewish
immigrants,
who has been
one of the ;
most popular

Gov. Ribicoff note the para-
dox that a second generation
Jew turns out to be the political
ideal of a traditionally con-
servative Protestant state.
In New York, Louis J. Lef-
kowitz, Republican, was re-
elected Attorney General in
the Rockefeller landslide. In
California, Judge Stanley Mosk,
former president of the Los
Angeles Jewish Community,

ney General.
Nine Democratic congress
