Mr.. Browning's candidacy Is, Of

tion that he Will be returned to the

BROWNING MAKES
STATEMENT AS TO POSITION
Asked for definite statements as TO
his intentions, Mr.. Browning said:
al do not know that the people of
my county VIII return me to the House
OF Delegates. therefore. anything that
may say with reference to the
spcakership must be conditioned upon
the assumption that l will be returned

and Impartial discharge OF its many
and difficult duties
SPEAKER HAS NOT CONFIRMED
REPORT OF RETIREMENT
Speaker Cox has not confirmed the
report Of his prospective retirement.
and 1t is probably because of that fact
that Mr.. Houston declines to discuss
the subject for publication. 1t Is ac-
copied among the House members, how
ever, as assured that Mr.. Cox will de-
cline reelection. The Speakers ex-
treme reticence in regard to this mat :
ter bears out story which has been
carried to all parts of the State. The
assertion that more than n majority OF
the members OF the House have CON
ditional1y promised to support Houston
Tor speaker OF the next House Is gem
orally credited at the Capitol, this
promised support being conditioned
only upon their being returned to the
