Dry leaders involved in nine state
primary contests where issues
ranged from prohibition to Huey
CKingf1sh) Long held early leads
in returns today, although Senator
Wesley L. Jones (Wash), Republic
an author of the drastic "five-and-
ten" prohibition law, was threatened
with defeat.
Early returns had given Jones
opponent for the senatorial nomin-
alton slight lead, but later reports
left Adam Beeler, jovial repealist
and former state supreme court JUS
tice, trailing.
The wet Democratic candidate for
that Office in Washington, Hamer
T. Bone, held a Substantial lead,
however, over Stephen F. Chadwick,
Seattle. The Democrats were reg
istering double the Republican vote.
Another state in which prohibi-
ton was an issue was New Hamp-
shire where Governor John G.
Winant, who usually won a heavy
dry and woman vote, led his Re-
publican repeaiiSt oppnent, State
Senator George 1. Haselton, almost
7 to l in the race for the guberna-
torial nomination.
Huey Long Is Issue
United States Senator George H.
Moses was assured of the Repub-
lican nomination there, and in the
Second congressional district where
vets and drys battled over the con-
gressional nomination, the dry was
out in front. Former Governor
Charles w. Tobey led Harold K.
Dawson, avowed wet.
Huey Long was the issue in LouSi-
ana. The Louisiana Democratic
boss put Congressman John H.
Overton in the senatorial nomina-
ticn race in an effort to Dust an old
political enemy, United States Sen
ator Edwin BrouSSard, and appar-
emily had succeeded by almost 2 to l.
Broussard had been in the senate
twelve years. Longs ticket favored
repeal and limitation of private
wealth.
Prohibition figured in at least one
Vermont contest, the Republican
for the states only seat
in the national house of representa-
tives.
Congressman Ernest w. Gibson.
Brattleboro, resubmissionist and in
cumbent tor nine years, was leading
Loren R. Pierce, repealist, almost
2 to l.
Cole Blease Comeback Fails
Cole BleaSe, for many years a ma
tional figure among Democratic
congressman, apparently failed in a
comeback attempt in South Carolina
where he opposed Ellison D. Smith,
incumbent, for the nomination for
the senate.
The primary results summarized
follow:
ARIzONA-Dr. B. B. Moeur lead
ing Governor w. P. Hunt for the
Democratic gubernatorial nomina-
ton, but other returns expected to
cut down his lead. Jack Kinney
leading, w. w. Midgley, Republican
rival, 2 to l. Senator Carl Hayden
and Congressman Lewis w. Douglas,
Democratic incumbents, apparently
renominated.
COLORADO-Karl C. SCHUYLER.
attorney for Henry c. Blackmer in
the oil scandals, leading Nate c.
Warren for Republican senatorial
nomination. John T. Barnett, oil
millionaire, leading Alva B. Adams
for Democratic nomination. James
D. Parrott (Rep) and Lieutenant
Governor E. G. Johnson (Dem.) led
in the gubernatorial race.
Burcker Holds Big Lead
LOULSIANA-Huey Longs ticket,
pledged to repeal and limitation of
private wealth, apparently winning
by a huge vote. Nomination of
John H. Overton for United States
senate means retirement after
twelve years of Senator Edwin S.

Burcker (Rep) held huge lead over
opponents for the gubernatoyial
nomination
