PENNSV VAN|A PRIMARY HINGES
ON VETS AND VARE'S MACHINE

And the political dictatorship of
wealthy Pennsylvania is at stake
in tomorrow's test.
Senator Gerald P. Nyc, (RO,
OF North Dakota, chairman of the
investigating committee, already
has put Pennsylvania on notice.
He has made personal trip of
inspection; he has sent a warn
ing telegram to district attorneys;
he has suggested the impounding
OF ballot boxes to prevent fraud;
and he has in every way indi-
Gated the Senate's suspicion of
this unprecedented Keystone pri-
mary.
Has All Candidates Worried
All of which hasn't helped
the confidence Of any of the
candidates. Gubernatorial candi-
dates, of course, are immune
from Senate authority. With the
senatorial candidates it is an
other matter and they all are
directly or indirectly linked up
with the gubernatorial aspirantS.
Davis and Brown comprise the
Ware slate; Phillips and Bohlen
impose the anti-Prohibition
ticket; and Grundy and Pinchot.
while not formally allied as the
others. have nevertheless been
forced into the same political
bed through their joint hatred
of "the Philadelphia gang" and
Gen. w. w. Atterbury, president
of the Pennsylvania Railroad,
who is supporting Davis and
Brown.
Wet Vote Big Factor
The strength of the wet ticket
of Phillips and Bohlen is a gigan-
tic problem in all calculations,
While no one comedies the wet
slate much, of a chance its vote
may well prove the determining
factor as between the organization
slate of Davis-Brown and the in
formal combination of Grundy
and Pinchot.
The principal other unknown
quantity in the battle is the real
strength of the Ware machine. In
other years there has been little
doubt about the organization; but
this year the boss" is broken in
health and organization affairs
are conducted by a war board" p"
where they used to be settled by
Ware himself.
AS a sideShow to the main event,
there is bitter fight for the Re
publican leadership, vacant since
the death of Boies Penrose. If
Senator Grundy wins, the mantle
falls on him; if the Ware ticket
wins it means William S. Ware is
still the dominant factor.
