DAVIS SENAT 7 {
SEAT SAFE

Unseating Of Senator James
J. Davis (R), Of Pennsylvania,
on the ground Of excessive pri-
mary expenditures appeared very
unlikely yesterday.
Although investigation has dis
closed that more than $6So,00O
was expended in the primaries
for the Brown-Davis ticket. Chair
man Nye said he knew Of no
resolution being prepared to ask
expulsion Of Davis. The bulk
Of the fund was devoted to
Browns gubernatorial campaign,
it is held.
In other quarters. it wa S
learned the committee probably
will recommend referring tn e
question Of Davis credentials to
the Privileges and Elections Com
mittee. The Nye committee plans
to conclude its Pennsylvania hear
ings next week.
Davis appears safe, however,
unless one Of the Republican
Insurgents, such as Senator Nor.
ris Of Nebraska. starts a fight
upon him independent Of the
investigating committee.
