Small Vote
Is Indicated
ForCounty
Nothing Like Inter

of Month. Ago Is
{. Shown Here

A small vote was being cast today
in the second, or run-off, primary in
Vance county for nomination OF
State and county officers on the DEM
ocratic ticket Estimates were that
the total was about one half to two
thirds of the total vote cast in the
first election month ago on Satur-

choice between DR.. Ralph w. Melon
aid and Clyde r. Hoey for governor,
W. +. Horton and Paul d. Grady for
lieutenant governor and Stacey w.
Wade and Thad Eure for secretary

The only run-off being fought out
in the county was that in which Asa
z. Paschall, high man in the first
primary, and T. r. Switzerland, run
r,cr-up in a field of six at that time,
opposed each other for coroner
Some cars were being operated in
the interest of the several contest
ants in the election. but the trek of
citizens to the polls was calm and
slow by comparison with that of a
month age
1t was expected that the ballots
would be counted and the returns
made known tonight in much more
rapid order than month ago because
there are much fewer contests and
fewer individuals contesting.

GUILD ACCUSED

SEATTLE, Wash, Sept. 20
UN.S0 0-Accusations that the
American Newspaper Guild had

day.

ness in the hearing on the closing
Of the Post-Intelligencer plant.
Edward G. Woods, general coun,
sci for Hearst newspapers, made
this announcement in closing his
case yesterday, declaring that
Examiner Edwin s. Smiths rulings
against admission of evidence Of
alleged violence in connection with
the case made it pointless to put
Beck on the stand.
Proof Rejected
But Woods attempted in vain
to introduce into evidence copies
of the Guild daily for last Satur-
day which published the stolen
messages in a purported news
story under q New York date line
and credited to a So-called guild
wire service. In line with re-
peated rebuffs which Woods has
met with in attempting to show
the real purposes and motives Of
the Guild in it's strike and boy
colt campaign against the Post
Intelligencer, Trial Examiner Ed
win S. Smith flatly rejected the
offer of proof which Woods made.
Smith likewise rejected Woods
offer in evidence of another copy
of the guild daily, the publication
Of two dozen editorial workers who
are on strike against the PoSt-1n-
telligencer, carrying an advertise
ment of the formation OF the so
called guild wire service. The ad-
vertiSement boasted that 5000
members of the guild throughout
the nation, employed on news
papers and by news services, would
furnish news for their wires.
Other Testimony Refused
Smith likewise rejected teSti-
mony of Lester M. Hunt, Post-1n-
telligencer political writer, on a
conversation he had with Morgan
Hull, guild organizer-testimony
which again called into question
the sincerity of the guild in its
Seattle activities.
Woods outlined what he said he
would prove by Hunts testimony
that Hunt and Fred Niendorff,
Post IntelIgencer financial editor,
found out from Hull that he was
more interested in carrying on the
guilds boycott campaign against
the PoSt-Intelligencer and other
Hearst enterprises than in improv-
ing the working conditions of Sc
attls newSpapermen.

will be opened to traffic tomorrow
for the first time since improve
ments were started months ago.
It will also mark the first time
since before the World War that
two-way traffic will travel over
the street. Financed through
Works Progress Administration
and municipal funds, the street
was widened by cutting away
jutting steps of the old Patent
office and widening the north
side of the street. The Capital
Transit Company also improved
its trackage between the inter
sections.
Merchants and civic leaders long
had fought for the improvement.
Several years ago the fight was
taken up editorially by The Wash
ington Times and authorities at
length lent an ear to petitions.
A committee of merchants and
civic leaders and municipal Off
cials met yesterday with Commis-
sioner Melvin C. Hazen. It was
decided to stage a celebration over
the improvement. The celebration
was delayed until further improve
mentS in the neighborhood. on F

bration will be planned by the Mer-

Cost Of Weeds
In u. S. Put At
Billion

Davis, Cal.-Weeds cost the
United States an annual loss of
$3,000,0 900, according to DIR. W.
W. Robbins, botany professor at
the Agricultural College Of the
University of California, who is
planning a nationwide campaign
against them.
DIR. Robbins estimates that Cali
fornia is the greatest state sufferer
from weeds, where the annual loss
is placed at 5000, 100000.
"The damage from weeds is so
much greater than people r%ealize,'
he says, that concerted action to
control various weed pests is hard
to obtain. The preparation OF
many products of the soil for hu-
man consumption involves the eli
mination of weeds or their effects.
"weeds also cause damage in
many other ways. They compete
seriously with crops for plant food
moisture and light; they increase
the cost Of preparing many crops
for consumption; they impair the
quality or reduce the value of many
products of the soil; they harbor
insects and fungus pests destruc-
tive or injurious to economic
plants; and they are sometimes Sc
poisonous as to endanger the life
or health of man and animals he
declares.
DR.. Robbins has already launch
ed his campaign for weed control
