He charged that Republicans have shown 8 desire small registration. The national chairman praised the city's newspapers for "being very helpful in bringing to the people the necessity for a large registration." Fitzpatrick said the registration, "considering the unusual circumstances and the deliberate diffities which have been placed in the way of people in some cases, has been phenomenal.

We are delighted." When questioned about the he said that telephone calls have poured in to State headquarters. He cited the case of a Kew resident, who complained Cardena, "anybody with an F. D. R. button found it practically impossible to be registered." Doris Byrne, womens' division chairman of the State committee, said that complaints had poured in for five hours on Monday night.

There were more complaints last night, she said, but the number was less than on Monday. Heller Seeks Extension State Senator Louis B. Heller today sent to Governor Dewey a telegram demanding an emergency session of the Legislature to extend the registration period to next week "to give a fair opportunity to all who are qualified and desire to register." Heller said he toured a number of election districts in Brooklyn and found a "deplorable and chaotic situation, depriving qualified voters of a fair opportunity to register." He said he estimated a registration of 1,000 persons per district and that "time alloted by the election law for registration over a period of six days is woefully inadequate." Earlier Fitzpatrick said he had "shocking information" that "there seems to be an organized attempt on the part of Republicans to prevent qualified voters from registering." He charged that G. O. P.

inspectors in some places were challenging naturalized citizens who voted in past elections and were demanding that such persons bring naturalization papers with them and that in other polling places Republicans were "stalling" in the hope "of discouraging people from standing in Democratic Panic Seen Louis J. Lefkowitz, chairman of the law committee for the New York County Republican organization, countered with the statement that Fitzpatrick, "in bringing false charges of stalling by Republican inspectors, is already seeking to alibi the result the voting on Nov. 7." He said the charges are "made out of whole cloth" and indicate "panic has set in in the ranks of the Democratic high command." "The reports we have been receiving," he said, "are that the inspectors of both parties are doing jobs efficiently and expeditiously registering the voters as they appear at polling places." In Brooklyn similar charges came from James V. King, A. L.

P. candidate for Congress in the 14th C. D. He charged that in some places registration boards opened 10 to 15 minutes late, that absentee ballots were refused in "several" cases, that elderly people voting for the first time in Borough Park were told they probably couldn't pass literacy tests and therefore should go home, that not enough teachers were available to conduct literacy tests and that in one election district only 12 persons were registered in an hour and half. High Figures Amaze Leaders Political leaders in general were at least mildly amazed, however, at the high registry figures despite the concentrated drives by various groups in the past two weeks to get the voters to register.

While firstday totals were somewhat lower than those for the same day in 1940, those "in the know" were surprised in view of the absence of so many men and women in the armed forces. No soldier vote ballots or applications are being counted in the registration figures. Second-day figures needed no alibis, running well ahead of the 1940 score in all boroughs. That there were delays at many registry boards was acknowledged by political leaders and the Board of Elections. Most of the delays, however, were caused by appearance of persons who had registered and voted in the same place in past years but who now are in other election and Assembly districts as a result of last year's reapportionment.

Many did not know their district lines had been shifted. Long Lines Form Inspectors and police reported that in many districts where voters straggled in in ones and twos in past years long lines formed Monday night and last night and a number of boards were kept busy long after the closing time because of the large number of persons still on line. In such cases a policeman stepped to the end of the line to assure registration of every one waiting. Perhaps strangest incident occurred in the 1st E. D.

of the 9th A. D. in Manhattan where two Republican and only one Democratic inspectors were present when the board was ready to open. It took police an hour and a half to round up another Democrat to fill in, several turning down the job.

place for Burial Rushville, Oct. 11 (U.P)-The body of Wendell L. Willkie arrived here today from New York, accompanied by the 1940 Republican Presidential nominee's brother, Edward Willkie of Chicago, and carload of flowers. A decision as to whether the body would be placed immediately in a cript until burial services were held or lie in state in Indianapolis was expected from Willkie's brother. The mortal remains of Wendell Willkie were borne today by funeral train, and then by nearse, to his native small town of Rushville, for burial in the quiet country place that gave him birth.

The body of the 1940 Presidential candidate was taken on its last journey after a simple, moving funeral in Fith Avenue Presbyterian Church, Manhattan, attended by 2,500 persons indoors and a reverent throng of 35,000 outdoors. The great and the obscure thus paid honor to the man who, in a time of crisis for his country, had become, though he achieved no public office, the political conscience of America and the world. Notables Present Former President Herbert Hoover, Governors Saltonstall of Massachusetts, and Baldwin of Connecticut; Representatives Clare Boothe Luce, Senators Joseph H. Ball Minnesota, and Sinclair Weeks of Massachusetts; Gover Dewey and former Governors Charles S. Whit- man and Nathan L.

Miller of New York; Mayor LaGuardia, Mrs. Franklin Roosevelt, wife of the President; Bernard Baruch and John D. Rockefeller Jr. were among those in the church. The great crowd of plain men and women, whose imagination Wendell Willkie had captured, packed 5th Ave.

and 55th and 56th Sts. They began to arrive before the funeral, which started" at 3 p.m. yesterday, and remained silent and reverent throughout the service. Burial in Arlington National Cemetery, Washington, was formally offered by the office of Secretary of War Stimson, but Mrs. Willkie chose the home town interment instead.

Tribute by Pastor The Rev. Dr. John Sutherland Bonnell, pastor of the church, who conducted the service, "In normal times country canid, could ill afford to lose a citizen of Mr. Willkie's stature. But his passing now, just as tie nations are approaching the crossroads that will determine whether or not the world will enjoy stability and peace or be torn and tortured by intermittent wars, takes on the aspect of tragedy.

"This man for whom we perform today these last solemn and tender offices possessed the power of eliciting the loyalty and devotion of men and women. By every qualification of intellect and heart he was a leader of men." Telling It Briefly Continued from Page 'FLOATING' DICE GAME PLAYERS FINED In his crusade to keep "imported" gamblers out of Brooklyn, Inspector Martin Brown of the 11th Distriet bagged a "floating" dice game that had anchored at 82 Prospect St. He arrested Sam Feldman, 48, alleged manager and cutter; Sam Paster, 28, accused of steering arriving grapshooters to the game, and 16 who came to participate. All gave Manhattan and Bronx addresses. "They can't come over here to gamble," said the in- spector, after Magistrate Horn in Brooklyn -Queens Night Court held Feldman and Paster for a hearing next Wednesday and fined the 16 crapshooters $2 each on their plea of guilty.

TAKES A NAP IN WRONG HOUSE, GETS 5 DAYS Mrs. Gertrude McCormick of 1093 Bergen St. thought her son was lying on a couch in the dining room and went to his bedroom to get a blanket for him. She found her son in the bed. The man in the dining room, it turned out, was Paul Bentley of 92 Prospect Place, who told police he had had a few drinks too many and wandered into the McCormick home.

"Five days," said Magistrate Solomon in Flatbush Court. BAKERY CHAIN STRIKE TO END TODAY The strike against the Ebinger chain of bakery shops will be lifted today, according to John Doscher, business agent of Local 3 of the Bakery Workers International Union, A. F. L. The strike, which began Monday, was for higher wages.

The company agreed to pay a $2.50 weekly increase and reduce the working hours from 44 to 40, but the War Labor Board said the concessions were too big and a violation of the Little Steel formula. Union executives decided not to penalize further the employer and called the strike off. WOMAN HELD ON NARCOTICS CHARGE Mrs. Pearl Ruggiero, 34, a housewife, of 257 W. 92d Manhattan, was arraigned yesterday before U.

S. Commissioner Jacob A. Visel in the Brooklyn Federal Building on a charge of forging narcotics prescriptions. She was held in $1,000 bail for action of Federal Grand Jury. The complaint was signed by a narcotics agent of the Treasury Department.

Assistant U. S. Attorney Maurice Z. Bungard said that from Sept. 30 to Oct.

9 Mrs. Ruggiero was accused of forging four prescriptions for an opium derivative and having the prescriptions filled in pharmacies in Astoria. HELD IN BEATING, ROBBING OF WOMAN Accused of beating Mrs. Ann Gavron, 27, of 37-41 79th Jackson Heights, and snatching her handbag containing $18, in an elevator in her apartment house, Angelo Mancuso, 37, a chauffeur, of 710 W. 179th Manhattan, is under arrest today, charged with assault and battery.

He will be arraigned in Queens Felony Court. Mancuso was caught by radio patrolmen last night three blocks from the apartment building.
