Precinct Meeting Re-
turns Indicate Hull
Victory

CHARLOTTE. N. c.. May 2s.-P,-
A victory for the forces opposing
Governor Smith has been won in the
North Carolina democratic precinct
meetings preliminary 10 the June 2
primary. the county conventions. and
finally the state convention set for
June IL when delegates to Houston
will be selected.
Returns tabulated by newspapers
from 81 Of the 100 counties having n
state convention vote of 1859 today
showed Representative Cordell Hull
of Tennessee leading Smith by l54
votes. The vote was:
Hull 533; Smith 379; uninstructed
$50: doubtful 1903; anti-Smith sc;
date Sc; Governor Mclean s., 10 be
selected at a mass meeting June 2, 81.
While both the Hull and Smith
camps are claiming large blocks Of
state convention delegates from coun-
ties in which percinct meetings gave
no instructions. and many are known
to favor one or the other candidate,
the fact that every democrat is
eligible to attend more than one
county convention makes the stu
alton an involved one.
Indications today were. however,
that the hot battle being waged be-
tween the Smith and anti-Smith
groups would continue TO he fought
right up to the June 10 convention.
