Hancock Polled Larger Vote
Than Many Anticipated.
Gwyn is Winner.

Senator Robert Reynolds defeated
Congressman Frank Hancock by &
majority of approximately 100000
votes in the Democratic primary
held last Saturday.
The tabulations Tuesday of 1861
OF the 1856 precincts in the state
showed that Reynolds had 275,
votes and Hancock 1854.
In the hot race for Utilities Com
missioner, Stanley Winborne licked
his opponent, Paul Grady, by
around $4,000 votes. The unofficial
count was 217, 469 for Winborne and
163,925 for Grady.
County officers were nominated
in practically all of the counties OF
the state except Ashe and a few
others. The contest for congressio-
nal seats, solicitors jobs and judg-
ships were also heated in most of
the state.
In the senatorial race there were
no major issues at stake as both
Reynolds and Hancock are New
Dealers, but the big vote polled by
Hancock definitely proved that
"Our Bob" is losing some of his
popularity and that the voters are
not well pleased with his record
during the first term. Prominent
political observers stated this week
that if Congressman r. L. Doughton
had made the race he would have
easily defeated Reynolds. They
pointed out that the biggest draw
back Hancock had was the fact that
he lives in Oxford which is located
in the central-eastern section of the
state. In other words, the east-west
tradition of representation, they
contended is hard to beat.
Reynolds ignored his opponent,
so far as any public mention of him
was concerned, but Hancock criti-
cized the incumbent for travelling
great deal in foreign countries,
charging that he was apparently
more interested in the affairs of
other people than in the problems
of the United States, and terning
him a play boy"

said Judge william Clark. who had
posed the question to Public Safety

Another hypothetical question left

Hatch is Democrat. He Is not, how
ever Democrat who believes that
relief money shall be used to buy
votes for any candidates-democratic
or otherwise.
The Hatch amendment was voted
down, after an extensive debate, 40
to 81, and later the Senate refused
to reconsider that vote, 80 to 80.
The action Of the Senate on this
proposal can be construed only as
an invitation to Harry L. Hopkins,
w. P. A. administrator, to use his
organization for political purposes.
Followed Civil Service Law.
The Senator from New Mexico
was careful to frame his proposed
amendment along the lines of the
law which, since 1883, has gov
erned all Civil Service employees.
They are prohibited from "pernicious
political activity" Could there be
anything more "pernicious" on the
part of Federal official than say
ing to man or woman needing re-
lief, vote as tell you or you get no
Works Progress Administration job?"
Here is the actual language which
the Senate ruthlessly voted down:
mo person employed in any admin
istrative capacity by any agency of
the Federal Government, whose COM
pensation, or any part thereof, is
paid from funds appropriated by title
I of this act, shall use his official
authority or influence for the pur-
pose Of interfering with or influence
ing convention or primary or other
election, or affecting the results
thereof. Any such person shall re-
tain the right to vote as he pleases
and to express his opinions on all
political subjects, but shall take no
active part in political management
or In political campaigns. Any per-
son violating the provisions of this
section shall be Immediately re-
moved from the position or Office
held by him, and thereafter no part
of the funds appropriated by this
act shall be used to pay the compen-
sation Of such person" ~
Not Retroactive on Hopkins.
In the light Of recent disclosures of
what has been going on in the W. P. A.,
from its head down, in the matter of
political influence, it Is all the more
amazing that majority of the Senate
should have rejected the amendment.
Since 1t was not intended to be retro
active, 1t could scarcely have been sup
posed that it might bring about the
retirement of Harry Hopkins from his
job as national administrator of the
w. P. A., although Mr.. Hopkins used
his influence to obtain votes for Rep
resentative Wearin in the Iowa pri-
mary against Senator Gillette pri-
mary that takes place on Monday.

Senate, however, would have nothing
