ANCHORAGE MAN TO START TEST SUIT
 IN JUNEAU COURTS
ARTHUR FRAME INDICATES HE WILL FIGHT MASS VOTING
 OF s. E. ALASKA TRIBES

The legality of the Indian votes cast in the Republican Primary cleo ton last week will be tested in the local Federal District Court in the near future according to authentic information received in Juneau re- gently, says the Juneau Empire. This information said that Arthur Frame, Anchorage candidate for the Repub- lican National Committeeman, will arrive here next week to institute legal proceedings for the test.
 It is understood that the Anchorage man will leave Seward next Sunday on the Northwestern for Juneau. On his arrival here he will seek an injunction to prevent the issuance of certificate of election to John w.. Frame, Ketchikan, as National Com mitteeman, alleging that he was not legally elected by reason of the fact that his majority is composed of votes of Indians cast without legal author ity.
 Margin Is Close
 The Ketchikan candidate had lead of 142 votes over his opponent, ac- cording to the incomplete returns as received by the Empire. Only few votes in this division are unreported while it is thought that between 500 and 750 are still to be returned in the other three divisions.
 It is estimated that between TOO and 800 Indian votes were cast in the Republican primary in Southeastern Alaska with John Frame receiving great preponderance of them. If the test results in any material part of the Indian vote being thrown out, it is virtually certain that the Anch- orage man will win out.
 Change Other Results
 A successful fight to upset the In dian vote would not only change the indicated results in the race for Nat ional Committeeman but would prob ably reverse the standings in several instances in the race for nominations to the Territorial Legislature from this Division and change the complexion of the delegates to the Republican National Convention, it was believed by local Republican leaders who have kept in close touch with returns as they have been reported.
 l It is believd that with the Indian vote thrown out, J. H. Davies would lead Forest J. Hunt by small mar. gin, although this cannot be definitely established until the final return: have been received. However, 1t i! certain that the three candidates ol the 'literacy test" ticket for nomin ations to the lower House would would have places on the ticket, a it would wipe out the lead now helC by Paul, Hern, and Ferguson and leave Shepard, Gurr and Ashley high mel with Grant.
 In the race for delegates to tht National Convention the loss of thu Indian vote would cost George Sex ton, of Seward, his place on the lis giving it to R. E. Robertson, who i not far behind Sexton. It would no affect the election of Dr. L. P. Dawe who has a majority large enough t. be unaffected by anything that migh happen to the Indian vote.
