HARRISON SMELLS FIGHT

The junior Senator has opened headquarters in Jackson and, has mapped out a speaking campaign in which he will stump the State for Conner.
 Johnson, too, planned to take the stump for Conner, whom he op- pissed when Conner ran for Gov ernor. Bilbo backed Grovernor White in the last campaign against Johnson. vernon White has thrown his support to Senator Har= rison.
 The merry hodge-podge created by the new alignments of old enemies is expected to produce one of the bitterest campaigns in years.
 After Congress adjourned, Harri- son delayed his return to Missis- sippi only long enough to attend the National Democratic Conven- tion; then he hurried back to the home State to plunge into viz orous stump defense of his down the-line record for Roosevelt.

PAT HARRISON FACING STIFF
 POLITICAL GO
Three Enemies Aligned in Battle to Beat Him
 for Reelection

WASHINGTON, Aug, 6. - Any non- -Mississippian could be pardon ed for wondering why the name of Senator Pat Harrison of that State so often, is mentioned in specula- ton as to President Roosevelt's se- lection of a Comptroller General.
 The genial Mississippian has been coming back to the House or the Senate for 26 years, without serious election trouble. Why, then, should Harrison, with a virtually perfect New Deal record in the Senate, be rated as a possible @lame duck" cadidate for Comptroller General?
 The truth is Harrison faces the toughest reelection battle he ever has fought. He is one New Dealer who will not be available for much campaign duty outside his own State this year, at least not until after the primary.

MEANWHILE, LEMKE IS MAKING HAY

One peculiarity of this situation, as it has developed in 1886, is that it leaves the stage momentarily to those various groups which are supporting neither the Republican nor the Democratic ticket. And they are making the most of their turn in the spotlight.
 With Congressman Lemke, Fla ther Coughlin, and Dr. Townsend constantly in the center of the news, it might appear that the new Union party alone is alert to it's opportunities, that it is stealing an important march on the two elder parties at a moment when popu- lar interest in the campaign is manifestly keen.
 But is that really the case? It al- ways is possible that the older par ties, out of the wealth of their ex- perience, are reserving their heav- jest fire because they are convinced that it is the wisest plan of cam paign
 If the Union party talks itself out at the start. it will not be the first time an independent political move ment has rushed in too eagerly, and repented later on

BILBo VOWS VENGEANCE

Harrison is battling an alignment of three men who once were polit- ical enemies. They have buried their differences in an effort to defeat him in the August 25 pri- mary.
 His chief opponent is former Governor Sennett (Mike) Conner, who claims he balanced the States budget with the sales tax. Now he seeks the Harrison toga. State Senator Frank Harper also seeks the nomination.
 Backing Conner are Harrison's Senatorial colleague, Theodore G. Bilbo, and Paul Johnson, former Congressman and runnerup to Gov ernor Hugh White in the last gubernatorial campaign.
 Bilbo has sworn he will have Harrisons political scalp for the latter,s support of the confirmation by the Senate of the appointment of Judge Edwin Holmes to the Cir cult Court of Appeals bench. Bilbo fought confirmation in retaliation for what he termed an injustice he received from Judge Holmes when the latter was presiding in the Federal District Court in Mis- sissippi.

"Jaywalking" and the thoughtless
stepping into the road from the
footpath thus will be prevented. In
the three-mile stretch of road, one
of the busiest and most dangerous

3O0-POUND ROE STURGEON
Caught in Delaware River Last
Week by Delaware CITY F'ishernaD

"Cth Ds DCidSdIt 1itN tsIlPf1IlaD
Another roe sturgeon was caught
in a shad net in the Delaware Riy-
er last week. The catch was made
by Potter Zachies of Port Penn
who was fishing off the Reedy
Point entrance Of the Chesapeake
and Delaware Canal when the big
fish became entangled in his shad
net. The frail shad net was torn
but Zachies succeeded in landing
the fish. 1t weighed about 300
pounds and contained SO pounds
of roe. With shad prices low at
the present time most of the fish
ermen are said to be planning to
fish for sturgeon in the near fu-
ture. Local fishermen do not or
dinarily start fishing for sturgeon
until the shad run is over. Heavier
nets are used for sturgeon fishing
than for shad and usually when a
sturgeon is caught in a shad net
considerable damage is done to the
net before the fish can be brought
over the side of the boat From
400 to a 1000 pounds of shad are
now being shipped from Delaware
City to Philadelphia and Whining
ton markets each day by Harry
Rose.

CHAMPION BOY
FARM MANAGER
M. c. Vaughn, of Lewes, Kept
His Records in Shape
to Win Honor
is A All CLUB MEMBER

Malloy c. Vaughn, Jr., age Is,
son of M. c. Vaughn of Lewes,
Delaware, has been acclaimed
champion among more than 1000
Delaware boys and girls in farm
accounting and was a contender
for the eastern states honors,
which were won by Robert Shoe
maker, IS, Woodbine, Md, accord
ing to an announcement received
at All Club headquarters at the
University of Delaware recently
from the National of Boys and
Girls Club Work in Chicago.
Malloy c. Vaughn, Jr., a Sussex
County All Club member, was Sc
lected for state honors by Alex. D.
Cobb, acting director of agricul-
tural extension and in charge of
All Club work after his record
had been certified by Miss Anne B.
Moore, Sussex County Club Agent.
Nelson S. Cannon of Greenwood,
another Sussex County All Club
boy, was named runner-up in the
contest. Using an AAA farm re
cord book, young Vaughn showed
a complete account of all financial
and production items by months
for his fathers 63-acre farm and
summarized them for the year
with an opening and closing in
ventory. It was Vaughn's first at
tempt to keep such record but
he has conducted other All pro-
jects in the past four years.
Analysing the record, the boy
points out the main sources of
profit and loss and suggests chang
es to improve the farm income.
Turkeys, broilers and eggs were
the chief sources of profit while
the small dairy herd showed a
deficit because of the loss of two
mixers. Canning crops, only NOM
inally profitable, are expected to
pay out well this year as the CO.
operative cannery which contracts
the crop lans to market frozen
products. Young Vaughn received
his choice of a 750-pound cream
separator or a S100 merchandise
certificate from the International
Harvester Company which spon-
sored the contest. Other winners
in the eastern states included Ro-
land Stonesife and Henry Kohler,
Carroll County, Md. A girl, Ger
aldine c. Daniels, 20, of Usque-
paugh. r. T., was runner-up in the
eastern states, while Douglas
Scammon, 20, of Stratham, N. H.,
won state honors in New Hamp-
shire.
