EAST TENNESSEE
Is FOR SHIELDS
Nathan D. White, Visiting Here,
Says Majority Will Be
Overwhelming

Senator John X. Shields will sweep
East Tennessee in his race for the
Democratic nomination for the Uni
ted States senate, according to Ma
than D. White, assistant city editor Of
the Knoxville Journal and Tribune.
who is spending short vacation with
his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Henry c.
" hite, at Chickasaw. He will return
to Knoxville some time next week
and expects to enter the military SER
vice Of the nation in the near fu-
ture. 81
Before leaving Paris for Knoxville
in September, 1916, Mr.. White had
been secretary Of the Henry County
Democratic Executive committee for
sevreal years and was identified with
the management of Senator Kenneth
McKellar's primary campaign In
this county in 1915, when Mr. Nickel
lar received substantial majority
here.
A little more than year ago he
was appointed to government POI
sition in Washington, on the recon-
mendation of Senator Mcclellan, but
resigned after six months to again
take up newspaper work at Knoxville.
In speaking of the political situa-
ton in East Tennessee one day this
week, Mr.. White said:
'There is practically no opposi-
ton to Senator Shields in the cas-
tern division of the state General
Charles T. Gates, Jr, would have poll
ed considerable vote in East Ten
nessee because Of his personal popu-
larity and recognized ability, but
since his withdrawal from the race all
factions of democrats have united
in support of Senator Shields.
I'm Knox county probably $500
votes will be polled in the Democratic
primary and it is freely predicted
that Senator Shields will receive A.
600, or more, of that number. In
Hamilton county he is expected to re-
ceive a vote of at least two to one,
while in Granger, Union, Sullivan,
Hamblen and other smaller counties
the percentage will probably be even
greater, His friends believe that he
will carry every county in East Ten
nessee and political opponents are
claiming only two or three of the
"a counties at the most.
Under normal conditions Sena-
tor Shields would be renominated as
customary second term endorse
ment, and now that the nation is in
the greatest war of history, thous-
ands of people believe it absolutely
essential that experienced and eff
cient lawmakers, both senators and
congressman, be kept in office, as a
matter of patriotism, which will go a
long way toward winning the war for
democracy"

curing any alienation OF their pros

The officers and men are part of

which revolted last February, seiz-
ed arms and provisions and marched
from Bukowina into Bessabaria un-
der the command of General Haller.
Part Of the force was captured by
the Germans, but the larger portion
is said to have been consolidated
with the Czecho-Slovak army.
The revolt was undertaken delib-
erately, the Polish soldiers declare
in one OF their appeals, with the
hope OF disrupting Austria and OBJ
tanning freedom for Poland.
