 Crew Swims Ashore

The gasboat Starr, owned by George Weaver, was stranded on reef off Marmion Island at the entrance to Gastineau Channel at D. m. yesterday, and Weaver, his son John, and Jackson Brady, third member of the crew, were forced to swim ashore, making it in safety. They were picked up today by Capt. Tom Smith on the gasboat Yakobi.
 The elder Weaver is totally blind Brady is reported to be paralyzed on one side. Despite these handicaps they made the i beach. The three men were eamped on the bench where they had a good fire going when they were picked up early this morn Ing.
 Word of the wreck was brought to town by Capt. Martin Hoist, of the Nebraska. He observed the position of the Starr and saw distress signals flying. The weather was too rough for him to reach the other boat at that time.
 It was not known today wheth- CT it was possible to save the Starr. It was entirely submerg- ed when Capt. Smith was at the scene today. The extent of the damages to the hull was un- determined.

George N. Conrad, former State sena-
tor and chairman OF the committee of
10 that called the anti-Smith confer
ence at Lynchburg on February 5, an
nounced last night that he had with
drawn from the committee and would
not attend the convention to be held At
Roanoke June Is. Mr.. Conrad said he
would support G.. Walner Mapp, one of
the three candidates for the Demo-
cratic nomination for governor, II Mr..
primary.
Mr.. Conrad said that, while he agreed
with much that Bishop James Cannon,
IT., of the Methodist Episcopal Church
South said in his letter advising anti
Smith Democrats to stay out Of the
Democratic primary. he did not deem 1t
wise for the anti-Smith forces to nonni
nate q third ticket for state offices. He
said that he did not desire to be COM
mitted in ar way by attending the
Roanoke convention to support the anti
Smith nominees.
Sees Mapp In Lead.
Mr.. Conrad said Mapp would poll
from 10000 to $4,000 more votes from
the ranks of anti Smith Democrats
than either John Garland Pollard or
Roswell Page, the other two candidates
for the Democratic nomination for
governor. He added in his statement
that he would support James H. Price
for lieutenant governor in the general
election in the event Mr.. Price was
nominate by the Democrats. He made
no reference to the contest for attor-
ney general. Neither Mr.. Price nor At
torney General John R. Saunders are
opposed in the Democratic primary.
Mr.. Conrad's statement follows closely
the announcement last night by William
Moseley Brown, Washington and Lee
University professor, that he would be-
come an independent candidate for gov
ernor il nominated BY both the anti
Smith and Republican conventions.
