-Four of six House members seeking
senatorial seats in the next Congress
have hurdled the hazardous primaries
and the remaining two will take the
preliminary jumps early in August
Representatives Ruth Hanna McCor-
mick of Illinois, White of Maine. Dick
inson of Iowa and Pritchard Of North
Carolina have won Republican nomina-

Representative Sproul of Kansas is
waging a heated campaign for the
Republican nomination in his State
August 5, while Representative Cordell
Hull of Tennessee, Democrat, hopes TO
receive the nomination of his party
August 7.
Mrs Mccormick and Pritchard are
one-termers in the House. On the
other hand, Dickinson is serving his
twelfth year, White his fourteenth,
Sproul his eighth and Hull his twenty
second.
The Illinois Representative was con-
gresham at large, while Pritchard was
swept into office with the Hoover land

of experimental stations and extension
work of the Agriculture Department to
Introduce better farming methods.
For many years chairman of the
House Merchant Marine Committee,
White became recognized in congress
sional circles as creator of legislation
to stimulate development of American
owned shipping, to encourage and regu-
late the radio industry and to formulate
a broad Federal fish propagation and
conservation program.
Sproul, an ardent dry, has actively

Known for many years as free
trader and as author of important reve-
nue. laws, including the income tax
system, Cordell Hull has established
reputation for broad knowledge of tariff
and taxation matters. When Repre-

from the Democratic primaries as
Senatorial candidate to seek reelection

assured the nomination.
