that State Chairman Glynn, with
Gov. whitman's approval, II not with
his direction. induced Seth G. Heacock
to enter the primaries for Lieutenant
Governor on the Republican ticket.
That he had done this because he feared
the present Lieutenant Governor. Ed
ward Schoeneck, would be load on the
ticket not only because OF his German
name. but also because he went to the
front for law clerk inhis Office who had
been charged with dlsloyalty.
Gov. whitman, who was at the st.
Regis, was not inclined to say much
about the Heacock petition. Under
the primary law anybody can be
candidate for any nomination" he said.
II shall not take sides. Both the Lieu
tenant-Governor and Mr. Heacock have
declared for me-"
One of the Governors friends asserted
that the Governor had not been aware
of Mr.. Heacock's decision TO go into
the primaries until late on Tuesday
afternoon. Friends OF Mr.. Heacock In
Utica say he expects Mr.. Schoeneck to
retire from the race. They assert
boldly that Gov. Whitman would pre-
fer to have Mr.. {Ieacock on the ticket.

The Governor never permits any
question of loyalty to friends to inter-
fere for a moment with his own per-
sonal ambitions. He hopes to deceive
Lieut.. Gov. Schoeneck and his friends
ana to retain whatever support they
may be able to bring to him.
FOR the present there will be no open
