OKLAHOMA CITY, July 4.-For
blind Senator Thomas P. Cora
veteran Of 10 years in the Upper House
Of Congress-leading politicians see
the hardest battle of his career in
Tuesdays primary election.
The Democratic nomination which
he seeks will be determined finally in
a run-off primary election July %.
The field of eight will be thinned to
the party's two leading contestants in
Tuesdays election.
Major Opponents.
Main figures opposing Gore on the
Democratic ballot are Gov. z. w.
Marland, elected chief executive on a
down the line with the New Deal"
platform; Representative Josh Lee of
Norman. also a New Dealer" and
Conner Smith. Oklahoma City corpo-
ration lawyer and national Townsend
plan vice president.
Lee, former professor of public
speaking at the University Of Okla
homa, who Is pitting his schooled
speech against that of Gore, known
as Oklahoma's silver -tongued orator" E"
has been the chief target Of the blind
Senator's battle against the field.
Cores charges that w. P. A. workers
were used against him by Lee, and
that the latter solicited campaign con-
tributions from relief workers, resulted
in investigations by regional w. P. A.
omcias and orders directing relief en-
ployes to take no part in the campaign
Marland is accused by Gore and Lee
Of making his senatorial bid backed by
powerful machine built around State
employees.
Social Security Advocate.
Smiths campaign mas centered on
his advocacy Of old-age pensions and
broad social security program. Talk
Of Townsend forces joining a third
Farmer-Labor party caused him to
stress, however, that he was not inter-
ested in boiling the Democratic
party"
On the Republican side. Herbert
Hyde, Indian, former United States
district attorney here, who headed the
Charles F. Urschel kidnapping prose-
cutions; Robert w. Kellough, Tulsa

be broad enough to inquire into ex-
penditures Of candidates before or
after the primaries.
The Senate Committee chairman
mas promised that the investigations
conducted will be fair and impair
tial." The makeup of his committee
Is three Democrats, one Progressive
and one Republican. The democrats
are Lonergan, Schwellenbach of
Washington, and Minton of Indiana,
The Progressive is La Toilette OF
Wisconsin, and the Republican, Aus
tin OF Vermont. 1t will be the policy
OF the committee, Senator Lonergan
said, to investigate and give the full
est publicity to charges of political
corruption or the use OF excessive
campaign funds. He believes this to
be a more effective method of pro-
cedure than actual prosecution, al
though prosecution will be recon-
mended wherever there is clear evil
dence of violation of the law.
More and more it becomes evident
that the battle Is to be confined large
ly to the Republicans and the New
Deal Democrats. The furry caused
by the announcement of a third party
the Union Party, backed by Father
Coughlin-has subsidized at least for
the time being. Representative Lemke
Of North Dakota. who announced his
candidacy for the presidency on the
Union Party ticket, with his running
mate as Thomas C. O'Brien of Massa-
chusetts, has not created much of q
stir as the days have gone by. The
new party. it has been said, will hold
a convention, presumably to ratify
the selection of the presidential and
vice presidential candidates and the
platform announced by Lemke. The
details Of the proposed convention are
still to be announced.
Followers of President Roosevelt do
not take much stock in the Lemke
ticket and its threat. They believe
the Presidents appeal to the Pro-
gressives and radicals, and the deter
mination of many of them to sup
port the Democratic New Deal ticket
will be an effective check On the
Lemke movement.
New Allignments Seen.
Whether the Lemke- -O'Brien Union
party ticket makes strides or not, the
contest between the Roosevelt Dem
ocrats and the Republicans promises
to bring new allignments politically
1t seems clear enough now that the
Democrats who believe, as do Al
Smith, former Senator Jim" Reed
former Gov. Ely of Massachusetts, and
others, are going to support the Re-
publican ticket. On the other hand.
some of the group Of Republican Pro-
gressives who went over to Roosevelt
in 1882 will back him again this
year.
About the time that the Lefnke
ticket came out in the open, Senator
La Toilette Of Wisconsin announced
that after the Republican and Demo-
cratic conventions had concluded,

tureque gentleman-and how in
tereStingly and colorful our Eng
lish cousins know how to dress
their little stages-one enters the
club Of underwriters, and comes
within the sweep of its amaz-
ingly varied activities.
One Of the few chances that
LloydS ever refused to take was
in 1908, when q firm of New York
dresSmakerS requested policy Of
safeguarding it against loss, by
style change or otherwise, on q
shipment of Directoire gowns from
Paris. But LloydS said, mo" It
willing to take chances with the
acts Of providence.
It was willing to gamble with
fire, flood, storm and earthquake
But it would have nothing to do
with the eccentricities of women's
fashions. There, said Lloyds of
London, was something quite be-
yond the scope Of mathematics
or the realm Of human reason.
GREAT SERVICES
LloydS has to its credit great
achievements in public welfare.
It was LloydS which discovered
the inventor Of the lifeboat,
Greathead, and gave him the en-.
couragement and the funds to
complete his work.
Back in DiSraeli'S time it sup.
ported q Quaker member of Parlia-
ment, who despite, the indif.
ference Of the Prime Minister and
the hostility Of vested interests,
fought through the measure of
establishing q load line for ships.
This was the PlimSoll line which
corrected the murderous practise
Of sending overloaded old hulkS to
sea with expectation that they
would never reach port.
Even greater service was per
formed by this ancient insurance
corporation. Early in the Nine
teenth century it brought to life
the barbaritieS Of the slave trade
with such effect that the aroused
! agitation did not SubSide until
England had abolished the traffic
in BLACK Ivory"
Lloyd fired the first gun in that
famous crusade for humanity by
refusing to pay the insurance on
slaves whom the captain of a
"blackbirder had thrown over
board.
And today, In Lloyds, when the
bell taken from the Sunken frigate
Lutine tolls, all men know that
q ship insured by LloydS has gone
under or come safely home to port.

her own Rock of Gibraltar against
the terrific onslaughts of Ma
poleon. It is memorable picture
too, Of that great sea captain
whose marble presentment stands
today atop the Trafalgar column
in London town-he who did more
than any other individual Of his
times, more, even than wellington,
to wreck the dreams OF the CorSi-
can, Horatio Lord Nelson.
LloydS of London! Odd, think,
that the name of this old, OLD
association of insurance underwrit-
erS should derive from one who
had no concern with the business
Of insurance except. to sell his aIeS
and his wines, his game and his
meat pies to the little group OF
merchants and seafaring men who
were accustomed to gather in his
coffee house in Tower Street. His
name was Edward Lloyd, wine
host to many of marine vocation
in the year 1888.
KEEPS PACE
Lloyds this year celebrated its
24Sth birthday. It was natural, I
suppose, for the first group OF
underwriters, doing much of their
business at Edward Lloyd's coffee
house, to take his name as a title
for their association. Even after
nearly two and half centuries,
Lloyds Of London, remains as up
to-date as the latest radio tune.
It is aS much at home in the Eng
land Of today as it was in the
England of George III.
One hundred and thirty-two
years ago, it wrote a policy ci
10000 pounds that the Emperor
Napoleon would not be assaSsi-
mated within three yearS-and, Of
course. won the bet. And it offered
to write policies for a premium Of
1917 per cent, that Edward VIII
would be crowned next May.
Ready to gamble on anything
in the world except a horse race
or a woman'S whimS, Lloyds has
offered to bet 100 to / that q
child will not be kidnapped, and
Is toA1 that grownups will escape
that misfortune. It has laid 1000
to against the likelihood Of
twins. It has bet 400 to l that
England will never go dry.
Robert, T. Jones, jr., started out
on the famous campaign which
was, to annex all four Of the
major golf titles in one year.
Lloyds bet so to / that the task
would be too much for Bobby,
and it paid more than $250,00O
to a group of gentlemen in At
lanta who backed their beloved
Bobby.
The one-time theatrical firm Of
Cohan and Harris once collected
$4,000 from Lloyds when John
Barrymore took unto himself a
wife in the current theatrical
year. The smile Of a comedian,
the fingers of a pianist or
violinist, the voice Of a singer
all these have been insured by
Lloyds.
It is one Of the most colorful
institutions in the world. The
entrance to the house in Leaden'
hall Street is guarded by an

HIGH SCHOOL MINES
HOPING FOR UPSETS
Central Senses Chance to Head
Western, Roosevelt Looks
to Five-Way Tie.

CENTRAL, seeking to strengthen its
bid for the public high school base
ball title in the event Westerns favored
nine falters in the stretch, will stack
up against a determined Roosevelt
club at Central Stadium tomorrow at
$3.50 o'clock.
The Rough Riders, confident and
anxious for action following their VIC
tory over Tech last week, sense five-
way tie for the crown, however, but
they must defeat Central to play their
part in what would be an unparalleled
finish for the scholastic series.
Coach Jack Ray probably will send
Arnold Heft, southpaw, to the mound
for Central, while Herman Littman
no doubt will select Howard Bowers
to twirl for Roosevelt. Heft set East.
ern down with six hits in his last ap-
pearance, while Bowers trimmed Tech
in his last start.
Yesterdays scheduled game between
Eastern and Western at Eastern Sta
dunn fell victim to the downpour and
will be played Thursday at the same
field.
Should Roosevelt trounce Central
and Western lose its remaining title
with Eastern and Tech, a five-way tie
for the title would be created, with
each team having won two games in
four starts.
Western can assure itself of no worse
than a tie for the championship by
winning one of its remaining games.
Should Central lose tomorrow. the Red
Raiders can clinch the title by taking
either Of its trays, since Roosevelt,
Eastern and Tech already have drop
ped two tilts and Central has lost one.
