Unusually Close

DENVER, Nov. 4.--The contest be-
tween Charles S. Thomas, democratic in
cumbent. and Hubert Work, republican,
for the United States senate, as well as
the congressional elections In three Colo
RADIO districts were in doubt early today.
Partial returns fofn thlrty-three counties,
including about half the Denver vote,
gave Thomas 1921; Work, 1885. The
election of Edward T. Taylor, democrat
In the Fourth district is conceded. B. c.
billiard, democrat, appears to have de-
feated Horace Phelps, republican, in the
First (Denver) district. The fate of Rep
,resentative Edward Heating, democrat,
in the Third district is in doubt. as is
the outcome OF the congressional election
In the Second district.
Both sides still claimed victory in the
prohibition contest. There we're indica-
tons. however. that the majority against
prohibition In Denver would not be suf-
ficient to overcome the huge vote in
its favor cast in other portions of the
state.
There was doubt as TO the outcome as
to most of the state offices, while little
was known as to the political aspect of
the new Legislature.
