GEORGIA TEST
ECALLED
Third County Presidential
j. Primary Cancelled In
Recent Past

WINDER, Ga, March II. (UP
second test of strength be-
tween Franklin D. Roosevelt and
his bitter political enemy, Eugene
Talmadge, was called off last
night by the Barrow county DEM
ocratic executive committee. -
1t was the third county presi-
dental preferential primary can
eelled in Georgia in recent weeks.
Wilcox and Pierce counties had
cancelled scheduled votes in pres
idential preference, but Seminole
county, in extreme southwestern
Georgia, last week gave the pres
ident a resounding S to | major
ity over the Georgia governor.
Although approving 4 resolu-
ton to cancel the county primary,
the county executive cOmmittc"
voted to request the Georgia
Democratic executive committee
to declare a statewide prefcren-
tial primary. =. r.
H. NJ. Oakley, chairman of the
Barrow committee, explained that
the primary was called off be-,
cause candidates feared the pres
idential issue would become con-
fused with local issues. Unlike
Seminole county, Barrow had
planned to run the presidential
vote in conjunction with the reg
ular primary for county offices.
Talmadge adherents, however,
had appeared here during the last
week, Just as they appeared in
Wilcox and :. Pierce counties be-
fore primaries there were called
off. In the latter two counties,
cancellation of the. preferential
primary was accompanied by
charges that Talmadge was ex-
erting pressure through state en-
plOyes.
Meanwhile at Atlanta, the fight
over presidential primary was
becoming heated. ~.

chairman of the state executive
committee, criticized short notice

ballotihg was held. '..;aE :. 81. .. <

Toby had learned this from
Maurine who had been out with
the young silverware buyer.
"She can have him" Toby
thought careleSsly. Maurine had
been late this morning, rs usual.
Gladys SorenSon, the third girl at
the counter, insisted Maurine had

thought Gladys, who was Older
than the others and whose iigurc
could be described only by the
word "dumpy," said such things
because Maurine was an Out-and-

know her referred to Maurine
Ball as "that pretty girl in the
iewelry." She had an arresting
brunei beauty that eclipsed her
surroundings. inevitably drew at
