ing the lower court judgement the
Court Of Appeals depended upon
jurisdictional grounds alone.
LOST JURISDICTION
Several extentions of time, in
which a bill of exceptions were to
be filed, had been granted by the
District Court at the request Of
Bishop Cannon'S counsel. BY the
time the bill was finally prepared,
the District Court had lost juris-
diction of the subject matter. Rep
resentative Tinkham's counsel,
Roger j. Whiteford, and P. Mar
shall then asked the higher court
to strike out the bill of exceptions

FOUGHT AL SMITH
Bishop Cannon headed the anti
Smith forces in Virginia during
the 1928 campaign and was in
dicted here under the Federal cor
rupt practices act when the House
of Representatives complained he
had failed to satisfactorily account
for a $4,000 contribution from c.
Jameson, New York capitalist.
Representative Tinkhan then
made the address, castigating
Bishop Cannon and, responding
to a dare of the clergyman had
the address printed and circulated
among newspapermen, thus diveSt-

'DODD AND SMITH
FIGHT FOR VOTES
IN N'CEE-HAWWAR
Old COP Tactics Are
Now Democratic

You might say the political race
for congressional nomination over
in Arlington county is a "gee-haw"
affair, with young William E. Dodd
saying "gee!" and representative
Smith. and his friends, saying
"haw!"
Young Dodd is an ardent New
Dealer, and Representative Smith
is ardent, too, but all the Eighth
Congressional District knows he
is not a New Dealer.
Two techniques, both of dis
tinctly American origin, and both
extremely effective, are being en-
ployed in the Arlington county
campaign, and while both are
(quiet, pleaseD Republican by
birth. both are being used by
cloud cheersD Democratic candi-
dates.
FRONT PORCH"
Mr.. Smith has adopted the
front porch" approach, in which
the thunderS of silence are being
used to drown by inactivity the very
thought OF another candidate. It
is presumed to have the effect of
making other people follow the
leaders purpoSeful ignoring of the
opposition.
And Representative Smit h S
friends are telling him. on days
he spends on his Fauquier county
farm, that he will win at least 20
to l over Mr.. Dodd, of whom, they
say, nobody has ever heard.
Mr.. Dodd, on the other hand
Is using the hay rake and pitch
fork" approach, on the theory
thaG the Arlington county farmers
will throw their hats in the air
and their votes in the box for a
true son of the soil, particularly
one who looks well on a binder,
or while pitching ten acres of hay
before SundoWn.
NOT DOING WELL
1t seems that Mr.. Dodd is, ac-
cording to the Smith camps, q
candidate nowhere but in the
White House, where he isn't doing
50 well, either, since the natural
yearning for a 100 per cent New
Dealer on occasion gives way to
more practical considerations,
such as election. which they say
is lin the bag" for Representa-
tive Smith.
Down in FauQuier county Repre-
sentative Smith famed himself
yesterday and listened to the
rcverberationS OF the Dodd hay
making machine. He opined that
young Dodd'S campaign could be
heard more distinctly outside of
Virginia, where it doesn't bother
Representative Smith, than in the
county Of its origin.
LABOR VOTE
But be that as it may, young
Mr.. Dodd is managing to get him
self before the voters. All may not
be as quiet along the Potomac as
Mr.. Smiths sentries have trans
mitted, for 60 per cent of Arling-
ton county'S voters belong to labor
unions, and that includes railroad
employees in the Potomac yards,
employees of the Fruit Growers
Express, carpenters, bus drivers
and employees of a grocery chain.
Many are CIO members, Govern
ment employees and these, Mr..
Dodd'S workers say, are all certain
to vote for their candidate.
And there is one more thing
In which Mr.. Dodd is truly hitting
the ball. That is his golf, in which
Mrs. Dodd shares his enthusiasm.
And-to catch the country club
members from the cities, and indi-
cate a certain social flair which
is largely concealed by overalls
and a straw bonnet-Mr. Dodd is
also teeing off with a few swift
strokes down the cultured fair
ways!
"Gee!" says Mr.. Dodd, enthusi,
astically.
"Haw" says Mr.. Smith, from
down in FauuCier.
