Chicago, Nov 6.-(AP)-U. S.
District Attorney William J. Camp
bell agreed today to a temporary
continuance Of the telephone wire
service to NJ L. Annenberg's horse

In the Sir Waiter Hotel

Raleigh, Nov. Announcement of
John Caffey, of Greensboro, that he
will run for Congress from the sixth
district has more angles than the or
binary hat tossing act of politician
who has "heard the voice Of the peo-
pie" and decided he'd like $4,000
a year with perquisities and pap) in
Washington.
To begin with, it likely means d
repetition Of the 1888 sixth district
congressional primary, which was as
mixed up as the North Carolina laws
about slot machines, and makes it
extremely difficult at this stage of
the game to predict who will even
tually hit the jackpot.
On the other har.', + perhaps sim
plifies the campaign for speaker Of
the 1941 House, though this is by
no means a certain result On the
face of things, it would seem to en-
nance greatly the chances of Rowan's
George Uzzell; but there's nothing
sure about that, because the Caffey
decision to try the grazing in other
political pastures may be just the in
centive needed to put anywhere up
to a dozen other representatives to
running.
But above everything else, it pro-
badly is the best news that Carl Dur
ham, incumbent from the sixth, has
heard in a long time 1t obviously in
creases his chances for reelection.

London, Nov. 6.-(AP)-British
n litary experts predicted today
that large scale long, range bomb
ing attacks in this war would await

that Germany eW Exploratory

attack planes Tor profitable mass
bombing :orays.
The average bombing fighting
planes, it was said, might have
range Of $50 miles without refuel-
ing. 1t is about 300 miles from the
British Isles to Germany. This is too
far, it was said, for a safe margin
for maneuvering Of invading fight
ing planes.
This source added that most Of
US believe that cnmass long range
bombing will wait until the fighters
catch up in their staying abilities
with the bomoers. There were hints
that steps were being taken in this

that Congress failed to establish
