POLITICAL POT IS
BOILING IN
EIGHTH

For the first time in 10 yeals,
northern Virginia is seething With
the prospect of an old-time battle
for the seat in Congress repre-
senting the Tenth Congressional
district.
Even prior to the announce
ment yesterday by Representative
r. Walton Moore that he would
not be a candidate for reelection,
Judge Howard w. Smith, Of the
circuit represented by the north
ern part of the Tenth district, an
nounced his candidacy.
Representative Moore, who sue
ceeded c. C. Carlin, political boss
of Alexandria, has been prac
tically unbeatable during his ten
ure Of office. None but the III
trepid H. carlton HaneS, OF Hern-
don, a practicing Washington At
torney, ever had the temer1ty to
oppose Moore in primary.
Hanes is expected to enter the
next primary, which closes with
the election on August 5.
Others Announce
Charles Henry Smith, Alex
andria lawyer, and Amos c.
Crounse, Arlington county bar
riSter, are others whose friends
say they will cast their hats into
the ring.
Frank L. Ball of Ballston, State
senator from Arlington county,
has long had his eye on Moore's
seat, and yesterday openly an
nounced his candidacy.
Another prospective candidate
Is Crandal Mackey, stormy petrol
of Arlington county politics and
former Commemorative attorney
who recently bought a newspaper
to strengthen his political fences,
so Arlington countians say.
Byars May Rum
Hugh Reid, delegate from Ar
lington county to the Virginia
legislature, who led his ticket
last fall, is also expected to make
the race. Former State Senator
J. Cloyd Byars, of Arlington, may
also make the race, his friends,
who are urging him, say.
With Moore out Of the way.
great activity and, expectation
among the Republicans is said
to be in the offing. Prospects
of a bitter campaign among the
various Democratic primary can
didates and their friends, it is
believed, will spur the Repub-
licans on to make real cam
paign for the first time since
Moore entered the House.
Louis A. Mcmahon, of Claren-
don, who lost out to Reid by a
few hundred votes last fall, will
be a prominent candidate at the
Republican convention which,
heretofore, has named G. O. P.
candidates, rather than go to the
expense of a primary, it is said.
Dudley to Offer
H. w. Dudley, of Cherrydale,
an official of the Department of
Commerce and closely associated
with President Hoover in the
Food Administration, is expected
to be a serious contender this
time. Dudley is one of the Re
publican leaders of Arlington
county.
Frank Lyon, of Mclean, may
also seriously consider entering
the race for Congress-, although
Lyon Is said to have his eye on
Senator Glass seat. However,
the disaster to the Hoovercrats
in the gubernatorial campaign
last fall, in which Lyon took
leading part, is said to have
coled off his senatorial aspira
tionS.

CHICAGO COUSINS GET
COUGHS while AT Play

Andrew Zeis of 1922 Ward St.,
Chicago, and his cousin, Jack
Horth, opal around" together.
And they aren't the sort Of boys
who want to suspend outdoor play
even during a Chicago winter. So
it isn't strange that once in a while
they get laid up with coughs and
colds. AS Mr.. Zeis himself says,
NMy son, Andrew, gets the usual
bad-weather coughs like all boys
do. He's out in all sorts of weather,
The Washington times., 1930-01-20

and we do have all kinds here in
Chicago. Some time ago he had o
mighty bad cough that stuck to
him till I started giving him REM.
I'd seen it advertised, and it
helped him fine. My nephew, Jack
Horth, has also used ittoo, andwith
good results, for his mother gives
him REM whenever he gets o
cough. Its certainly a good cough
remedy" Thousands Of other de-
lighted users agree with Mr.. ZeiS.

live q whole lifetime in a few moments and run the gamut OF the
emotions before you can catch your breath?
You know, they are awfuly trying to Master Cupid, these
lovely ehangeable creatures who love, quarrel, then make up and
love again all in a single day. He who loves such a caprcious
goddess. often turns to Cupid in despair, but there is little that

turn from a gentle zephyr to a snaring angry gust before which

that much IS comfort. And so, too, with the lovely lady, her
March moods also abate and the sunshine of her smile over
shadows the frown Of her anger or discomfort.
