former Judge of the Court of Appeals.
Secretary of State Francis NJ Hugo

that they would enter the primary

fogged by the indecision regarding the
attitude OF the leaders towards desig-
mating United States Senator James

favor such designation, but Senator

posed to It, preferring to let the con-
vention ignore him entirely and enter
the primaries against the field. Sena-
tor Wadsworth refused to discuss tho
matter to-day. He. said he would have
nothing to say at present, hut that q
