BOTH CANDIDATES CLAIM
VICTORY IN PRIMARY

Raleigh, June 2 - Pre-primary
claims of victory from the opposing
camps in the senatorial campaign are
out in advance of the voting, with
Manager Walter Siler predicting for
Senator Overman majority of 65,-
900 and Bob Reynolds claiming for
himself lead of $4,000.
Mr.. Siler has written Senator Over
man that he may rest assured of at
least $1,000. Reynolds says he will
carry 81 counties.
The most optimistic estimates as
to the size of the primary vote hardly
run higher than 100000. If Mr.
Siler is figuring on that basis, he
is giving the junior senator's oppon-
ent $4,000 votes and his own candi-
date 115,000. Those who have been
doing scout about the state have not
conceded more than 100000 to Rey-
nolds. But the smiling Asheville
lawyers authoritative" prediction
indicates that he has been doing some
counting on his own behalf.
