New Jersey, chairman of the
House District Committee.
The District chairman. in her
first interview since the conven-

frowned on the suggestion of a

seldom realize their aims.
However, she did assert that

VIII Urge Action
IF they do not respond in the
proper manner, she declared, she
will urge Congress to take action
to force the real estate firms to
keep rents down.
Mrs. Norton also said she will
fix a time and place where Dis
trict renters may come to submit
their complaints against high
rents, and indicated that private
probe of the matter may be made
by her office. She said:

VOTERS TRIBUTE TO BOYLE

AS returns continue to come in from Tuesdays primary election, the political picture begins to grow clearer It is virtually certain now that Territorial Auditor Frank A. Boyle has been renomnated by the Democratic party his opponent Joe Holman of Seward former Speaker of the House MT. Boyle has rolled up such impressive lead in the First while maintaining safe lead in the Fourth Division that he not be overtaken if his opponent does get majority of the Third and perhaps the Second.
 It fine tribute to the Auditor and he richly deserves for his excellent conduct his office and the services has rendered the Territory through the years.
 While the Republican for nomination for Auditor is closer, the returns thus far indicate that Cash Cole who MT. Boyle defeated four years ago, will be the Republican nominee Outdisanced in the First Division by C. H MacSpadden MT. Cole cap- tured big percentage of the in the Fourth and moved out ahead. That support in the Fourth Di- vision may well mean the nomination
 Though MT Cole has record of strong support in the Fourth repercussions of the famous Doug las Republican convention can be heard in that Fourth Division vote by the political observers The veteran Andrew Nerland of Fairbanks who by the way, far ahead of his ticket for re-nomination by the Re- publicans for seat in the House of Representatives to which he has been elected for years will be re- called the representative from the Fourth vision to the G. o.
