CULPEPER, Va, July 5.-More than
1000 fans witnessed Culpeper's twenty
eighth annual Horse Show and Racing
Association meet here yesterday, despite
the all-day downpour OF rain.
Rain started here several hours be-
fore the opening and continued all
during the showing. All classes were
sliding and slipping during their per-
formances and the races were run on
slow. slippery track.
Do Tell Out of Money.
OF the four fiat races and one steeple-
chase, winners in all races except one
were doped out to perfection, that being
the steeplechase in which the fayorite,
Do Tell, did not run in the money.
The betting was small, compared with
previous years, and this is credited to
the fact that a wet track had the fans
shy of their favorites.
The results follow:

"the earliest owner of this property,
lot 3 (old Georgetown). after the for
nation of the town in 1757-was John
Boone, to whom the commissioners for
Georgetown allotted said property on
June II, 1852.
Among the later owners prior to
the Revolution were Christopher Leyh-
man and CaSsandra Chew"
Discussing the Washiongton tradition,
Mr.. Goddard said today: 1T would
be very pleasing if true, but since it Is
questioned, we feel we want on that
sign only what is true"

of the c. A. R., vent out Of existence

U. S. IS READY
FOR FASCISM,
SAYS THOMAS
Only Demagogue Is Lack
ing, Leader of Socialist
Party Asserts.

By United Press
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. Sept. %
The United States is ready for
Fascism, and only a demagogue is
lacking, Norman Thomas, Socialist
candidate for President, told an au-
dience here Thursday night.
The first violent revolution in this
country, Thomas added, will result
in Fascism and not Communism.
He said Fascism may come either
with or without violence, and said
the factors which have paved the
way for governmental changes were
the degeneration of the two major
political parties, disgust With ordi-
nary political actions, and the en-
phasis of prejudice and passion.
Thomas poked ridicule at Arthur
M. Hyde, secretary of agriculture.
who spoke in Michigan this week.
The only thing Hyde said, accord
ing to Thomas, was that the admin
istration had loaned the farmers
more money that it had the rail-
roads.
This IS. an excellent Illustration, ;"
said Thomas, "of the feebleness of
the Republican party's efforts to
cope with the nations distress"
