RICHMOND, Va, November S.
M. A. Hutchinson, secretary Of the
Democratic State Central Committee,
announced today that citizens Of Vir-
ginia contributed to the national
Democratic campaign fund a quota
'far beyond" the $37,500 originally
assigned the State. Hutchinson's an
nouncement was made following pre-
liminary reports given him by State
Senator Robert w. Daniel of Prince
George, State finance director for the
National Committee.
More than 1000 subscribers, none
Of them corporations, contributed
more than $4,000 to Senator Daniels
division, Hutchinson said, with a
number Of contributions still to be
Tailed.
Definite estimates Of the total cost
OF the campaign to Virginia Demo-
Gratis were not available here today,
but field workers said the aggregate
expenditures, including State local
and Senator Daniels fund. would not
exceed $4,000. The expenditures of
Virginia Republicans and Jeffersonian

farmers are asking is for you to call
the general assembly into session be-
cause we think there is a chance it
may be able to do something to help
US.
"The farmers of the state are tired
of having you condemn them as nit
wits and blockheads merely because
they differ with you as to what a
special session could do" julius D.
Grimes of Beaufort county said after
the Governor finished speaking, al
though he agreed that the Governor
was entirely sincere and honest in his
conviction that special session
would be useless and Ineffective
Grimes was a classmate of Ehring-
haus at Chapel Hill, incidentally.
There is no doubt that large num-
Der of the farmers who came here
Tuesday convinced that nothing but
special session would help them, went
back home very doubtful as to wheth-,
er a special session could accomplish
anything, after hearing the Cover
nor's speech. There is a possibility
that after they think about it for
several days longer they may even
tually come to see the situation as
Governor Ehringhaus does But most
Of those who attended the meeting
and talked with the farmers after
wards and listened to them discuss
the situation with each other, are con
vinced that most of the 5000 farmers
who were at the mass meeting still
that the Governor should call a spe-
cial session.
That Governor Ehringhaus made a
powerful defense of his position and
presented convincing arguments in
support of his opposition to calling a
special session, is generally conceded.
Some think he talked entirely too
long and almost talked his audience
into unconsciousness. Some think
be became entirely too bitter and Wit
riolic in spots, especially of his crit
les and opponents, while others
thought the portion of his speech in
which he poured it on hot and heavy
were the most effective portions.
But the prevailing belief in most
circles here today, even among those
friendly to the Governor, is that if he
persist in his present position and
continues to refuse to caN a special
session of the legislature, that he will
not only lose great deal of the sup
port he now has in the tobacco coun-
ties, but antagonize many to the ex-
tent that his position will really help
his opponents and critics in he pres
ent campaign.
