LEAVES GR0NNA
AGAINST LADD
IN PRIMARY
Whites Reason Given as Desire
to Clear the Way for an
Anti-Townley Victory
A N NOUNCED COMMITTEE
Especial to The Tribune)

\OpCCldl W liz lIlDuIlc)
Fargo, June 9.-Colonel
Frank White, Of Valley City,
authorized an announcement to
the republican state central
committee in session here this
afternoon that he had with
withdrawn from the race for the
republican nomination for Unit
ed States senator.
Mr.. Whites withdrawal leaves
only United States Senator A. J.
Gronna and DR.. E. F. Ladd in
the race for the nomination.
Col. White took this step so
that the success of the anti
Townley candidates in the June
primaries might not be impaired
by a divided vote for United
States senator, it was stated.
Decision Announced
The decision was made known
by Chairman Shines at the re-
publican headquarters an hour
before the state committee went
into session. 1t was said that
Col. White would support Mr..
Gronna.
Representatives were present
from every part of the state at
the meeting Of the state COM
mittee, which took up all phases
of the anti-Townley campaign.
Senator Gronna, while not en-
dorsed by the Minot anti-Town-
ley republican convention, where
he did not ask for endorsement,
has attacked the Townley social
istic element numerically in
his campaign speeches.
Ex-Service Man
"a Col: White entered the race as
the third candidate, and had re-
ceived strong pledges of support
from friends throughout the
state, his friends say. AS an
ex-service man he had received
strong endorsement from many
of them. His withdrawal was
occasioned only by the desire
that nothing be placed in the
way of defeating DR.. E. F. Ladd,
the Nonpartisan league candi-
date in the primaries, who is
running as republican.

we controlled the committee against
powerful opposition, almost solid anti

While these developments were TAX
