RICHMOND, Va. September s.-Vir-
ginia Democrats are planning their big
gest rally of the campaign fer Monday
when Senator Robinson, the party's
presidential nominee. delivers his
Richmond address. The speaker will be
introduced by Claude A. Swanson,
senior senator from Virginia
All members of the State Democratic
central committee and of the State
Democratic executive committee will
meet in Richmond Monday afternoon to
discuss the campaign situation in Viz
ginia. 1t is planned also to have at
this meeting every chairman of the va
rious county and city Democratic COM
mittees of the State. Altogether 1t viii
be the biggest Democratic pow WOW held
in Virginia in many years.
The speaking campaign in Virginia
is in full cry and both Of the major
parties have corps of spellbinders busy
in nearly every section of the State. On
Monday of this week, Joseph G. Shaffer.
Republican nominee for member of
Congress from the ninth district.
opened his campaign with an address at
Pulaski. On next Monday his Demo-
cratic opponent, w. H. Rouse. will
open the Democratic district campaign
at Jonesville. The ninth is always a
| doubtful district. owing to the fact that
most of the Republicans of the State
are grouped in 1t, but there Is less
Democratic detection in it than In any
other district of the State.
| The Republicans now have congress
sional candidates in five of the ten
districts of Virginia. In the fifth, they
have nominated Taylor Vaughn of Ga
lax, to oppose Representative Joseph
Whitehead of Chatham. Earlier in ne
campaign, they nominated j. D. Bassett
of Martinsville, as their candidate in
the fifth, but he declined the nominal
toin owing TO the fact that he is in
bad health. Mr.. Vaughn is his SON.

In the second district, Menalcus
Landlord of Norfolk, is the Republican
nominee who is opposing Representative
Joseph T. Deal of Norfolk j. A. CARRIER
of Harrisonburg is the Republican who
is opposing Thomas w. Harrison of
| Winchester in the seventh district. NJ
j. Putnam of Clifton Forge is the Re-
publican candidate against Representa-
tive Harry st. George Tucker of Lex
ington in the tenth district.
There has been somewhat of a lull in
the anti-Snith campaign of the bolt
ing Democrats. This campaign is ex-
| pected TO take on new life when Bishop

SMITH STOCK RISES
IN WEST VIRGINIA
G. O. P. Drops Predictions of
$4,000 to 100000 Hoover
Majority.

CHARLESTON. w. Va, September 8.
1T is noticeable that Republican
prognosticators are becoming more mod
crate in their views on the presidential
issues in this State. Predictions of a
Hoover majority of $4,000 to 100000 are
no longer being made, the range now
being from $4,000 to $4,000. A mean
satisfactory to the exuberant prophets
would be the plurality Coolidge had in
1924 over the native son candidate
31.403
Smith stock unqueStionably is on The
rise in West Virginia as result of the
dlsaffection among the $1,000 colored
voters and the groups of foreign-born
Enthusiastically Jewish and Italian
which have been almost solidly Re-
publican in the past. To what extent
the loss will be retrieved through the
heavy revolt of Democratic women. and
IN much smaller number the ultra
dry and anti-Catholic men of that
party. is one of the puzzles of the
campaign that makes present forecasts
OF little value. Straw votes in Demo-
cratic weeklies show about the same
number OF Republicans voting for Smith
as Democrats for Hoover. In these
straWS. however. the women are not

strength.
Branches of the independent Fedora
ton of Negro Voters are being formed
among the voters of that race and
the memberships reported are imposing
The Democratic national committee has
taken cognizance of the situation and
IS sending organizers into the State.
One now on the ground is Isaac n
Nutter, colored lawyer of Atlantic CITY.
N. j., and brother of ATTORNEY T. C.
Nutter of Charleston, former member
OF the State Legislature. The visiting
Nutter states that on his trip over
this and other States he finds more
colored persons Tearing toward the
Democratic party than ever before"
Gov. Smith also benefited this week
by radio address by former State
Senator Clyde Beecher johnson of
Charleston who led the anti-Snith
forces in the primary campaign and
was elected delegate at large to the
Houston convention Mr.. johnson was
as laudatory of Smith in this address as
ne was derogatory in a similar broad
cast IN the pre-convention campaign,
In the later address he made no anol-
ogleS Tor his former stand but said
tIat ne mad wreStled with his deep
scared preJudices against Tammany
Hall and had reached conclusion that
smith should not be held accountable
Tor the sins of that organization. The
radio address, Mr.. johnson informed
TINS correspondent, was for the special
benefit of those who had followed his
leadership in the primary fight.
incidentally, Mr. johnson is credited
with originating in his former speech

though the business of the meeting was
the selection of his successor on the
national committee.
This present week has brought forth
the most definite expression from Sena-
tor Simmons and it has set tongues to
wagging as they have not wagged before.
Senator Simmons wired to Frank r..
McNinch, Charlotte lawyer, that he
wished to express his full sympathy
with the movement to organize and
consolidate anti-Smith sentiment"
adding Il shall be glad to cooperate
in this behalf"
1t was later stated that this CO.
operation would take the form of ap-
pearances on the stump.
Presumably these appearances, if they
materialize, will be made with Mr.. Nc
Ninch, who strangely enough has here
tofore owed his State prominence to
opposition to the Simmons machine"

WASHINGTON STATE
TO VOTE TUESDAY
Primary to Show Full Effect of
Splits in Major
Parties.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


SEATTLE, Wash, September g.
Washington voters go to the polls Tues
day to nominate the State, senatorial.
congressional and Legislative tickets.
Republican and Democratic, after one
of the most bitter fights ever seen since
the primary was adopted in 1907. The
major parties are both badly split and
the presidential situation will feel the
reaction between the primaries and
the general election in November.
The prohibition question is also rails
ing its head at the eleventh hour in
the primaries. due to the action of the
Anti-Saloon League In attempting to
select dry" candidates, and there is
no question but it will become the main
issue in the Hoover-Smith contest dur
ing the next two months.
The Republican party is divided into
two camps. Hartley and anti-Hartley
Gov Hartley is charging all other
State elective officers. some OF whom
have been in service as Republican
officeholders for 25 years, with being
crooks" He has smeared the entire
Republican State ticket, seeking re-
election with this charge.
The Democrats are split over A. Scott
Bullitt and Judge Stephen j. Chad
wick gubernatorial candidates, ano
this fight is creating factions not con-
ducive to a united front on the Smith
ticket This situation. however, is not
as dangerous to the Democrats as tina,
of the Republicans is to the Hoover
| ticket, as the threats of a bolt on the
part of Hartley forces if his opponent
Edward L. French. Is nominated. are
strong. Similar quiet threats are be-
ing made by French people. In either
J event the boilers will tend to swing
support to the Democratic national
ticket, and the outlook is not cheerful
for Republican leaders

Nebraska Pastors Aroused as Smith
Announces Opening Speech in Omaha

IAN an affront to the intelligence and in
tegrity of the American people" If Gov
Smith opens his campaign here he I'M
doubtedly i'll have great effect upon
the voters of this section, who will be
looking for something more in detail
on the farm issue.
Gov. McMullen this week seemed to
renig little on his Hoover support by
issuing a statement praising the atti-
tude of Senator Robinson on farm mat
ters.
Many believe the governor is feeling
his oats after the big vote he received
for delegate to Kansas City and sees a
way to the United States Senate follow
ing the tactics of Senator Norris.
Senator Norris is expected In Nebraska
early in October to take part In the
campaign. Senator Howell who has al
ways been radio enthusiast, is making

RENO, New, September 8.-Nevada' S

seem to have resulted in anything on
which prediction might be based On
the outcome in November in this State.
There was only one contest in the

for State treasurer, and the so-callcd
party leaders appear to have been re-
buked by the voters, for they nominated
a man other than the one chosen by
the leaders to run.
The vote was extremely light, and
