 Thoresen Leading
 Yves running mate, Lieutenant Governor T. H. H. Thorsen, was leading John Hagan, Langer's choice, in the Republican guberna- torial race, but his margin was not as great as Yves.
 The vote from 679 precincts gave Thoresen 33,902 and Hagan 25,49l.
 Nomination on the Republican ticket was regarded as almost tanta- mount to election, since Democrats in the past have boiled hardly a third of the states total vote. This primary appeared to have been to exception.

 The race was the center of in terest, completely overshadoWin2 Democratic and Union parties pri- naries. Six years ago both men were elected with non-partisan sup nort. Since then they have been engaged in bitter struggle for state leadership. Nye broke with the league when Langer obtained con trol of it.
 Their champaigns were on strictly state issues. Langer promised to "out-Huey Huey Long" if necessary to obtain federal aid for the state. He charged that Nye had made a racket of his fight for peace.
 Nye waged a campaign against what he termed 'Langerism" in the state administration. He charged that the governor and his whole ticket would have to be defeated to assure responsible state govern ment.

There To Be Modern
in All Respects

Construction work has been
started on a new and modern fill
ing station at the intersection of
Church street and Third avenu"
west. and when completed the new
station will be operated by the
Standard Oil company.
The old station on this site has
been torn down and some of the
material will be used in the new
structure. The construction work
is being done for Capt. j. W. Bal
ley, according to specifications OF
the Standard Oil concern. The
erection Of the new station will
cost approximately $1,000, it was
estimated this morning.
The new station will be of brick
and steel construction, according
to the most modern plans of the
oil company. 1t will face on
Church street instead of on a di-
agonal as was the case of the old
station.
Considerable grading work will
be done to give the new station

was taken upon the suggestion of
Premier Milan Hodza and the
Prague government.
"Viscount Runciman is in no
sense an arbitrator, but a media
tor" Chamberlain said. HE will
be independent of His Maj S
government or any other govern
ment."
Prague and Berlin have APP
proved of Lord Runciman's mis-
sion but Henlein and the Sudeten
Germans have not yet indicated
their consent, Chamberlain said.
To charges by Sir Archibald
Sinclair, liberal leader who spear
headed the debate, that Premier
Benito Mussolini of Italy is "open-
ly aiming at driving wedge be-
tween Britain and France" the
prime minister replied:
"British-French friendship is a
solid buttress of peace and Is
strengthened by the conversations
of Viscount Halifax foreign sec
retary) in Paris, the result of
which was that no new commit
ments were entered into but there
were general discussions in COM
plete accord"
Britain's determination to de-
fend her interests applies as well,
he explained, to Spain and China
and he warned Japan that:
when the Japanese say they
are protecting their interests in
China they ought to remember
that Britain also has interests in
China which she is not prepared
to stand by and see sacrificed"
He expressed hope of early ac-
cord on a trade pact with the
United States. sidestepped opposl-
ton demands for some sort OF
settlement of the war debt to the
United States and announced Bril-
tain would not guarantee loan
to China, although other Chinese
proposals for assistance are being
examined.
