Charles Alvin Jones, Pittsburgh law
yer, captured the gubernatorial
nomination, beating Thomas Ken
needy, secretary-treasurer of the
United Mine Workers of America,
who was on the Duffey-Lewis ticket.
Jim Farley, national committee
chairman, had projected himself in
to the hot fight by advising the COM
promise choice of Earle and Ken
needy, but the governor Indignantly
told him it was none of his bust
ness, and the voters gave him
swat on the head by rejecting his
advice.
Republicans were elated because
the returns showed a ground swell
back toward G. o. P. conservatism.
The Republican total vote exceeded
the Democratic vote, and this fact,
together with the graft and bribery
charges that enlivened the CAM
paign of the Democrats, led the Re-
publican leaders to hope the Key
stone state would return to the Re-
publican fold in November.
Judge Arthur James won a
smashing victory over Clifford Pin
chot, twice governor, for the Repub-
lican gubernatorial nomination, and
this was another swat at John L.
Lewis, for he was reported ready to
back Pinchot if Kennedy lost. Sen.
James J. Davis was renominated
nv a heavy majority.
Both Senator Guffey and Lewis
appear to have lost their claims to
political leadership. Lewis had
boosted that he controlled 800, 900
c. /. o. votes in Pennsylvania, but
the best he could do was SIC, ZOO.
Earle, though he came out on top,
was considered to have lost pres
tige greatly by the accusations Of
mis-rule made against his admins
tration. His presidential aspirations
were believed wrecked.
The c. I. o. has lost other politi-
cal fights, but none so important
as this. President William Green
Of the American Federation Of La
Dor called the vote a complete "re-
pudiation Of the C. !. o. leadership"
He added:
''It now has become abundantly
clear that no candidate who bears
the c. I. o. brand can be elected to
high Office in this country. The pri-
maries proved the c. I. o. is politi-
cal liability, not . political power"

there was assurance that Great
Britain and Russia would come to
the aid of France if she were at
tackled without provocation.
No wonder the governments of
Europe were desperately worried
by such a critical condition.
Hitler must have realized that the
time was not ripe for aggressive ac-
ton against the Czechs, for German
authorities in Berlin solemnly as
sured DR.. Vojtech Mastny, Czech
minister to Berlin, and the Czech
military attache that Germany
planned no military expedition
against Czechoslovakia. This eased
the situation somewhat, but the
British cabinet continued to urge
Benes and his government to make
all possible concessions to Hitler
concerning the demands Of the SUI
deten German minority. It was be-
lieved the Fuehrer would ultimate
ly get about everything he wants
from the Czechs without a fight.
Both France and Britain were
bringing strong pressure to bear on
Berlin, and the British especially
were determined to avert general
war if it could be done.
Prime Minister Chamberlain, it
was said, was working out a plan
under which his government would
play the part of mediator. The
scheme was based on autonomy for
the $780, 900 Germans in Czecho-
slovakia with freedom in municipal
and educational affairs.
Henlein's German party in the
Sudeten districts of Czechoslovakia
was winning victories in municipal
elections, and this made the Nazis
quite cocky in their attitude. They
refused to negotiate with the gov
eminent until their safety had been
guaranteed.

r OSSES incurred by the federal

have totaled $83, 1887, 495.
This was made known in COM

500, 100000 capital of the corpora

A budget bureau statement ac-

the losses grew out Of the shrinkage
in the market value of cotton, corn,
tobacco, turpentine and other COM
modities put up as collateral for
price bolstering loans.
The principal loss of $51 ,459, $50
was incurred in loans on the 1884
cotton crop.
