ic nomination for Lieutenant-GoV
of Virginia against J.. Taylor Ellyson
the present holder Of that office, as

/ Behind the Lee movement arc num-
iof Richmond and Norfolk men. They
state that if Colonel Lee will consent
! to make the race the movement will
l:be formally launched within short
thine.
Doubt exists whether Colonel Lee
can be drawn into politics again. Years
Eago he was a member of the Virginia
General Assembly from Fairfax coun-
Fly, where he resides. Since his re-
tirement from the Legislature Colonel
Lee has nos taken an active part in
Virginia politics.
Virginia is again-torn asunder over
the Allen case, mad the suggestion OF
The Lee candidacy for Lieuteant-Gover-
nor is an outgrowth of TIE controversy
over the last movement; to save the
life of Claude Allen, the son OF Floyd
.Allen, head of the Allen case.
Efforts have been made to place the
responsibility for the effort TO save
Claude after Governor Mann left the
State. Senator CLAUDE i. Swanson
has been drawn into tie case. 1t is
charged that the junior senator asked
I lieutenant Governor Ellyson to take
action in the matter. Senator Swan
son denies CHS, saying he was asked
to call up Richmond over the long-dis-
lance telephone and when he did so he
was consulted by the Lieutenant-Gov-
ernor as to the Allen case.
The last few hours respite given the
Aliens, it is charged, was preliminary
to an effort to get communication to
lie imprisonment Of the death sent
cnce of Claude Allen.
