 Mir. Cowles stated today that he had done nothing to secure the appoint ment. He said. that he had circu- lated no petitions and had asked no one to vote for him.
 In speaking of Mir. Pagan, he said that they are the best of friends and since it became known that Mir. -'owles would run for the office, the TWO men have had many frank talks the situation.
