.DAVEY IS STRONG
DESPITE SCANDALS
Ohio Governors Following
Troubles Sawyer in
Democratic Race.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN,
Stan Correspondent of The Star.

COLUMBUS. Ohio. July 2s.-Other
States have their bad boy" Governors,
but none of them can hold q candle
to Ohio's Gov. Martin L. Davey II you
believe all his opponents say.
Notwithstanding the malodorous rec
ord which has been attached to Gov.
Davey, he Is putting on . campaign
that has . lot Of people worried. Even
in the camp Of Charles Sawyer, Gin
cinnati lawyer. Democratic national
committeeman for Ohio and opponent
Of Dayey for the Democratic guberna-
torial nomination. private claims are
that Sawyer will win by . narrow
maTEin-l5,000 to $4,000.
Painted Is . srxftsr, . political COR
ruptionist and shaker-down Of State
employees, Davey apparently still has
q very considerable following. He is
credited with having built up an
amazing organization, with the 10000
men and women on the State pay roll
as the springboard. He has the en-
nifty Of the Committee for Industrial
Organization. But the friendship Of
the American Federation of Labor. He
Is charged with terrorizing the old
people on the pension rolls, but Is
given credit for preventing anarchy In
the State during the steel strikes last
year.
One of Two Major Races.
Two contests in the Ohio primary
campaign overshadow all others-the
Davey-Sawyer race for the Democratic
gubernatorial nomination and the race
between Robert A. Taft Of Cincinnati
and Judge Arthur H. Day Of Cleveland
for the Republican nomination for
Senator.
John w. Bricker, Columbus attor-
ney and former attorney general Of
the State, is unopposed for the Re-
publican nomination for Governor.
Senator Robert ]. Bulkley, blessed
by President Roosevelt on his recent
trip through the State, is given q
decided edge tn his contest for Demo-
cratic senatorial nomination against
former Gov. George White. The fact
that the President took occasion to
give Senator Bulkley . pat on the back
In Mr.. Whites old home town-while
Mr.. White looked on-has aroused a
certain amount Of resentment among
the voters. It Is also q fact that Mr..
White had q good record as Governor
for two terms. But Bulkley, neverthe-
less, is the likely winner and the New
Deal fair-haired boy.
Roosevelt Pictured as Anti-Davey.
The Roosevelt administration has
taken no open part In the contest
over the Democratic gubernatorial
nomination. But there is q distinct
opinion voiced here that the admin
istration, from the President down,
would be delighted to see Davey re-
moved from the political scene. The
Governor was invited to rect the
President during his Ohio visit, and
did ride with him In an automobile.
Mr.. Sawyer Travelled most Of the day
on the Roosevelt train.
During his first term as Governor,
Dayey had q run-in with Harry L.
Hopkins over the conduct Of relief
activities in Ohio. He has never been
on very good terna with the admin
istrstiop IN Warrington since. In
1896 It ooked q though Davey was
doomed TO defeat, but President
Roosevelt carriDd the State by more

citation to reject proposed resolutions
that would place the lawyers on record
a. expressing sympathy for persons
prosecuted or prescribed" by the Ger
man government and as favoring .
constitutional amendment to permit
enactment Of uniform marriage and
divorce laws by Congress. The COM
mittee took the position that the
German question was not within the
purview Of the association, and that
regulation Of marriages and divorces
should be left to the States because
Of "diverse social views" held on the
subject.
The proposed Black resolution asked
the association to name . committee

titled to raise the question Of the
Legality Of Mr.. Blacks appointment.

School, Chicago, contended the ap-
pointment Was invalid under the Con-
stitution since Mr.. Black Nas . mem-
ber Of the Senate when that body In
creased the emoluments of the judicial

Twiee Rejected Petitisas.

Advanced units continued to edge into
Gandesa's outskirts while the mass of
the government forces strengthened
other positions.
Hills were honeycombed swiftly with
dugouts for refuge from bombs and
machine-gun fire which Gen. Francois
airmen rained from the sky. Trenches
were spread to defend the positions
against ground attack.
The Ebro was cobwebbed with cross
1ngs. Since the first pontoon bridges
were built on Monday to start the sur
prise offensive, many communications
lines had been laid. Permanent wooden
bridges and ferry systems spanned the
stream. carrying fresh troops and sup
