UNDERWOOD ELECTED BY
A LARGE MAJORITY
HObsOn's Managers Conceded at Noon
that Underwood Had Won by
Large Majority, Returns
are Not Full.

Birmingham, Ala, April Oscar
w. Underwood for nearly twenty
years representative from the North
ern Alabama districts in the lower
house of congress, swept the state in
the contest with Congressman Rich
mond Pearson Hobson for nomination
to the United States senate accord
ing to tonight's returns from yester-
days Democratic primaries. Mr. Hob
son conceded the victory to his rival
candidate before noon today, altho
returns are still incomplete.
Tonight second only to the active
interest in connection with the long
term senatorial race was the interest
in the outcome of the contest for the
short term and the four-cornered CUB
ernatorial fight. The returns indicat-
ed Clarence S. White of Birmingham
expired term of the late Senator JOS
eph f. Johnson. His nearest opponent
is Ray Rushton of Montgomery.
Later reports say the prospects of
the present situation becoming a run
off primary in the gubernatorial fight
seems inevitable. Former Governor
Conner apparently still has the plurali-
ty but r. f Cobb of Montgomery and
Charles Henderson are running close
behind the leading candidate. Re-
turns indicate that the only repre-
sentative in the lower house of con
gress, who has been defeated for nom
ination is George W. Taylor, of the
first district O l.. Gray of Choctaw
county, has lead, according to avail
able figures. The three other con-
gressmen from the state apparently
will be George Almon of Colbert, sue
ceeding the late Representative Will
liam Richardson, Geo. Huddleson of
jefferson county succeeding Oscar w.
Underwood and William +. Oliver
of Tuscaloosa county succeeding Rep
resentative Hobson.
