BRUCE AND GoLDsBoRoUGH

Unless unforeseen circumstances,
which political observers and party
leaders do not anticipate, arise, Unit
led States Senator William Cabell
Bruce will be the Democratic candi-
date for reelection next fall and
Phillips Lee Goldsborough, former
Governor, will be the Republican
candidate for the same position, says
the Baltimore Sun.
Each is expected to have the full
support of his respective party at the
general election. At the present
time, however, it is indicated by
Democratic leaders that Senator
Bruce's candidacy is not backed by
his party as ''wholeheartedly' as it
might be, but this statement is ex-
pected to be "ironed out' before next
fall.
Certificates of candidacy for a
Statewide office must be filed at
least thirty days previus to primary
election day, according to Maryland
law. AS the primary election will
be held May z, this means that a
candidate for the Senate must file a
certificate before midnight Friday.
Senator Bruce and Mr.. Goldsbor-
ough each has filed a certificate as a
candidate for his respective party.
The indication that Senator Bruce
is not being backed ''wholehearted-
ly'' is based on reports from East
sern Shore. It is understood that the
Democrats In the nine Shore counties
would support another party candi-
date but that If none is available
they will back Mr.. Bruce rather than
give any support to Mr.. Goldsbor-
ough.

A NOVEL GAME

A Chicago concern, Ryde Il Conn
pany, who manufacture Chick foods,
have applied for copyright on a very
novel and interesting game, called
Ryde's Chick-Food Game.
This game is simple enough for
the children, but likewise interesting
enough for grown-ups, for it is not
only amusing, but educational as
we'll.
The game constitutes board
about is inches long, Ia inches wide,
likewise spinning wheel and four
metal chickens, The color desig-
mates each player.
The game takes the baby chick
from the time it Is born and brings
! it ON through to its maturity, that is,
until it is considered laying hen.
One of the interesting features of
the game is the penalties which one
incurs for doing certain things, such
as keeping the brooder too cold, and
emitting fresh Sair, allowing the
water to become foul. On the other
hand. the reward for such things as
protecting the CHICKS from draught
and commencing with geod healthy
stock. It is these little points which
educate person in the bringing up
and raising of their chicks.
The game can be secured from
Ryde G. Company, 5434 w. Roose-
Welt Road, Chicago, by anyone. All
chat Is necessary is to include ten
cents k0F the cost of packing. .

BID FOR VOTERS
INTENSE IN ALL
NATIONS AREAS
Southern Border Strip Hub of
Prediction Whirl of Can
didates
BY BYRON PRICE
Associated Press Staff Writer)

Kansas City, Mo-, Oct. 13-(AP)
Politics has reached its torchlight
season, and no quarter of the whole
horizon is left in darkness.
In every section Of the country,
the final intensive bid for votes is
on. This time it is no part of the
scheme of things on either side to
leave any debatable precinct un-
debated.
During the past week the southern
border strip, host successfully to
Hoover and Smith, has been the hub
Of the prediction whirl, while other
sections have been under the exhor-
tations of the lesser leaders. In
Tennessee the Republican nominee
made his appeal not only to the bor-
der states, but to the south as we'll.
His Democratic opponent has carried
his meeting and greeting" cam
paign through Virginia, North
Carolina, Tennessee and Kentucky
with only few short speeches as
he approached Louisville, where he
is to deliver his first prepared ad-
dress tonight.
Throughout the whole border
strip, from Maryland on the east
to Missouri and Oklahoma on the
west, many uncertainties continue to
figure in the calculations of the pol
iticians. All of these states arc
claimed by both sides, but when they
speak of majorities neither sets the
figure very high.
Return to Normally
Over the western farm country,
Republican leaders are saying they
have seen definite indications that
the Democratic farm campaign has
passed its zenith, and that steady
prediction swing to Hoover has
succeeded a period Of uncertainty.
Over the south the Democrats speak
Of a rebound from the anti-Smith
agitation, and return to the normal
order Of Democratic solidarity.
One of the peculiar features of
this peculiar campaign is the con-
tinued failure of the disputants to
agree upon what issues the cam
paign is being waged. In most Of
the other stirring battles of political
history, at least one clear-cut and
definitely Joined issue has stood in
relief. This time the situation is
not 50 easily resolved.
The Republicans are putting
greater and greater emphasis on the
tariff, but Chairman Raskob has de-
clared that Governor Smith fully
understands the need for protection,
and that the tariff has no place in
the campaign. Out of the several
sided argument started by this state
ment has emerged demand by SEN
ator Curtis that the Democratic
presidential nominee make good his

promise to discuss this subject in

detail.
While Senator Curtis has been
hammering away on the tariff in
the northwest, Senator Robinson has
been making a series of speeches in
the far west accusing Mr.. Hoover
of inconsistency in regard TO boui-
der Dam, and Mr.. Hoover, in Wash
ington, has further clarified his
views regarding Muscle Shoals and
the st. Lawrence waterway.
Hansbrough Rifles Calm
An entirely new campaign argu-
ment was given momentary currency
during the week by former Senator
Hansbrough Of North Dakota, who
said in radio speech that Mr..
Hoover had large oil holdings in
Colombia and Mexico. The shower
of denials included one from Demo-
cratic headquarters, in which Chair
man Raskob said he knew there was
absolutely no truth in the charge"
In these closing weeks, woman's
place in the campaign seems to grow
ever greater. In many communities
women have thrown their energies
into the battle with zeal difficult
to match in the annals of the man.
made campaigns Of the past. AS
keen a political analyst as Senator
Moses said few days ago that the
votes of the women probably would
be the deciding factor on election
day.
Impressed by the activities Of the
Hoover women" from coast to
coast, Republican leaders count the
nationwide increase in the number
of registered women voters as a dis
tinct Hoover asset. But the Demo-
Gratis reply that many farm women
who never saw a polling place be-
fore will vote this time for Smith.
and that many women among the
foreign elements, heretofore aloof
from politics, will help to swell the
Democratic total.

ARMS SMUGGLED
INTO HUNGARY
JugOSlavian Authorities Seize
% Freight Car Loads
Of Explosives

London, March 24.-PJ--Europe
today faced another st. Gotthard
incident involving the alleged
smuggling of arms into Hungary.
Dispatches from Subotica (also
known as Theresiopel and Szabadka)
on the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS from
tier, to Croatian and Austrian news
papers said Jugoslayian authorities
seized % freight car loads Of ex-
plosivcs.
The explosives were described on
their bills of lading as destined for
Rumania. They were believed to be
intended for Hungary, however, be-
cause the route prescribed for the
shipment would take them through
Hungary instead of by the more di-
rect route through Jugoslavia into
Rumania.
Both the Agram, Croatia. Novisti,
and the Vienna Tagespost, in report
ing the seizure, asserted that the
arms came from Italy.
The Vienna paper added that
twelve other carloads routed from
Italy to Rumania by way Of Hun
garian territory passed Subotica
several days ago.
A committee Of the League of Ma
tions is now investigating the
seizure Of machine guns by Austrian
customs officials at St. Gotthard on
the Austro Hungarian frontier.
These were also reported to have
come from Italy and were sorappcd
by the Hungarian government after
their seizure, thus hampering the
leagues probe. 1t was claimed that
they were designed for Poland at
the time of the seizure, but Poland
promptly denied this.
The matter was brought before
the league by the little entente =
Rumania, Jugoslavia and Czechoslo-
vakai. Who sent them, where they
were going and why, are being in
vestigatcd.
