New Dealer Seeks

PHILADELPHIA. April 90. CUP)
Sen. Joseph F. Guffey, "Pennsyl-
vania's No, New Dealer" sought
denomination today in the state
primary elections.
Pennsylvanians nominated hun
dreds of candidates for legislative
congressional and statewide offices
TO be filled at the general election
in November. but the only contest
Of state and national significance
was that between Guffey and Wal
ter A. Jones. Pittsburgh oil man.
Some indication was expected Of
President Roosevelt's strength. MI.
Roosevelt's name was listed for a
third term on the ballot There
were no opponents. nor were there
any names listed for president on
the Republican ballot, but space
was provided for write-ins.
This primary is not to settle a
partisan squabble, but represents a
clean-cut fight between the New
Deal and those who would destroy
it," Guffey said in an address last
night winding up his campaign"
Jones, who is supported by Demo-
cratic State Chairman David l..
Lawrence and other party leaders
who blame Guffey for the 1888 fac
tional fight which aided Republ-
can victories, accused the senator
and his followers of "resorting TO
new low in propaganda and an
1lth hour political trick in attempt
ing to make Democratic voters be-
heve that President Roosevelt was
behind the senator for re-nomina-
ton"

This hair did not look like the coat
