CURRY EXPECTS
CLEAR MAJORITY
Returns From Southern Trip
Confident of Success at
Primary Polls
Believes He Will Receive More
Than Half of Vote Below
Tehachapi

IAat he viii win the republican NOM
ination for governor by a clear majority
over all his opponents is the opinion
that Charles F. Curry brought back
with him from a two weeks tour Of
southern California.
Curry arrived in San Francisco yes
terday. He was accompanied by Doug
las White. manager of his Los Angeles
campaign. Curry had visited the valley
counties, all of the counties south of
the Tehachapi except Imperial and the
coast counties except Santa Cruz. To
say that he was enthusiastic over the
situation as disclosed by his tour would
be 10 draw il mildly.
When Curry left for the south he was
OF the opinion that he would come north
10 the Iehachapi with substantial plur-
alty- He returned yesterday imbued
with the belief that he would cross the
Tehachapi with a clear majority that
would insure him a majority in the
entire state.
HE LIKES OUTLOOK
Il am convinced that 1 will come TO
the Tehachapi with a majority" said
curry The outlook is better than I
had imagined il could be before l went
south. The south is in splendid condi-
uon- The south is not so wrapped up
N the idea of southern candidate as
many northern Californians have been
Ted TO believe. The south is looking for
a man who viii be not A sectional gov
ernor. but a servant of all the people.
II discovered that the people of the
south were convinced by my official
record that L had been the servant of
All The people and that as governor 1
would be governor for all the people
and not for section or a faction. 1
told the people Of the south that I
regarded the Tehachapi as a geosrap nh
lcal fact and not as a political boundary
line. They agreed with me that Mason
and DiNon's line, wiped out many years
ago, should not be erected again at the
Tehachapi
Some Of my best friends, some of the
men who are fighting hardest for me in
ms campaign, have never been north
Of the Tehachapi That the south for
the south sentiment does not exist will
be demonstrated by the vote in Au-
gust"
Curry viii spend today in Oakland
and return TO Sacramento tomorrow
He viii make flying trip into Mendo-
emo during the latter part of the month
and tour Of northern California some
time i'm June.
