SMITH DEFEATS.
Gov, JOHNSTON
BY $4,000 VOTES.

COLUMBIA, s. c., Aug. 81
Q.N.SO.-U. s. Senator E. D.
Cotton Ed Smith triumphantly
survived President Roosevelt's s
political purge today as nearly
complete returns showed he had
won denomination in South Caro-
lina's Statewide Democratic
primary yesterday.
Senator Smith was leading his
RooSevelt-endorsed opponent, Gov
ernor Olin D. Johnston, by more
than 10000 votes in the balloting
which had attracted nationwide
attention because of the New Deal
issue.
With only 81 Of the States
1909 precincts yet to be tabulated,
Senator Smith had 165, ,290 votes;
Governor Johnston, 134,462.
Since the Democratic nomina-
tion is tantamount to election, it
was deemed certain by political
observers that Senator Smith,
chairman of the powerful Senate
agriculture committee, would be
returned to the Senate.
OF several Senators and Con.
gressmen recently repudiated by
President Roosevelt, Senator
Smith was the first to face the
polls and he came out a victor de-
spite the fact the President
frowned on his candidacy.

Six Republican candidates
filing for political offices in
Prince Georges county, who
asked last week that their
names be withdrawn, may be
forced to run, it was revealed
today by George Burroughs,
attorney for the county eIec-
ton board.
The question hinges on
whether a law passed by the
State Legislature in 1887
requiring candidates to with
draw at least 30 days before
an election is applicable only
to Baltimore, where voting
machines are used.
Several members Of the
board explained the law was
intended for Baltimore only,
since it requires some time to
prepare voting machines for
an election. Burroughs will
visit Baltimore today to con-
fer with the attorney gen.
erals office ON the issue.
The candidates affected
are Wesley Beall and Curtis

POLITICS DE LUKE

"Hamp" Magruder, with one eye
on the New Deal cat-o-nine-tailS,
hung to his revenue collectors job
with all the enthusiasm Of ten
thousand dollars year, if that's
what it is, as he declared for
Lewis. Senator Sasscer, running
for governor as the county's fair
haired son, has to keep quiet about
the Senatorship, and is-to the eX-
tent of speaking on the same plat
form with both candidates! But
until things began to happen out
side of the organization circle,
everyone knew" how the county
was going. And it didn't take q
clairvoyant to learn why.
Yet, today, one of the most
experienced observers in the
county, acquainted with all of the
principals on both sides and in
touch with public opinion as well,
said it wouldn't surprise him to
see Prince Georges carried by
Tydings. The Tydings people OBJ
viously had heard the same report.
Little Davey" Lewis, taking no
chances, will appear in the county
twice tonight, at Mt. Rainier and
Seat Pleasant.
LEE FOR LEWIS?
In Montgomery county exactly
the reverse was true. Lewis has
been strong among the farmers in
the upper end and in the suburbs
around Silver Spring, but sup
posedly weak in hoity-toity Chevy
Chase and blase Bethesda. Also,
apparently, in Rockville and other
spots more or less dominated by
Major Brooke Lees Well-oiled ma
chine.
But today Lewis enthusiast will
walk'up to you, wag a finger un-
der your nose and demand:
would it surprise you If
Major Brooke Lee came out for
Lewis in Montgomery"
If you remark that it would be
a bit more surprising than if
President Roosevelt turned in for
Tydings, he'll turn his face to
the sky and howl like a she.wolf
in the full of the moon, leaving
you convinced that one or the
other of you is stark mad.
LEWIS IN BETHESDA
Probing for an explanation of
this particular madness, all you
can find is the circumstances that
Brooke Lee once had his own eye
on the senatorial seat now held
by Tydings, and that the New Deal
is pulling wires as hard as wires
can be pulled.

$258, 1000 F. B. /. SUM
IS RECON- Tended
$108, 900 Would Be Used to Meet
kidnapping Fund Shortage
and Rest for Range.

Appropriation Of $l06,000 with
which to meet the kidnapping fund
shortage of the Federal Bureau of
Investigation, and of $3.50, 900 for con-
struction of q permanent rife range
for the G-men at Quantico was rec
commended to the House today by the
House Appropriation Committee.
At the same time the committee
suggested the appropriation in the
future Of an emergency reserve fund
to prevent a recurrence of the recent
financial crisis caused in the F. B. /.
by unforeseen crime emergencies, such
as kidnapings and extortion cases.
The Attorney General would be au-
thorized to draw on this fund when
such urgent cases arise.
The 100000 deficiency appropria-
tion will provide for operation Of the
F. B. I. at full strength during the
remainder Of this fiscal year. Half Of
the field force Of $40 agents had been
furloughed because of exhaustion of
travel and operating funds The actual
deficit was $173,000, the committee
pointed out. but this has been re-
duced by an advance Of $65,000 from
next years appropriation.
The committee decried published
reports that Congress was to blame
for the financial plight of the G-men,
declaring the record of appropriations
for the bureau shows continuous In
crease The deficiency was caused by
an unpredictable series Of major crimes
necessitating action by the G-men, 1t
was explained.
