Soldier Vote Measure
Denounced by Norris
As 'Disfranchisement'
Report on Capitol Hill
Says President Will Let
Bill Become Law
BY the Associated Press.

Former Senator George w.
Norris of Nebraska has de-
nounced the service vote bill as
a bogus" arrangement under
which fighting men will be
practically DISTINGUISHED"
The denunciation was contained
in a letter to Senator Guffey, Demo-
crat, of Pennsylvania, who released
the letter today along with an ex-
preston of his own hope that Pres
ident Roosevelt will veto the bill.
At the same time reports were cir
culating on Capitol Hill that the
President will allow the measure to
become law without his signature.
Poll Results Virtual Tossup.
Some Senators said they under
stood that results of White House
poll of Governors as to whether
more or fewer servicemen could be
expected to vote under the bill than
under existing law turned out to
be a virtual tossup.
Mr.. Norris letter, in criticizing the
bill now on the Presidents desk as
inadequate, said the Senate had
taken IAN unwise and very backward
step" in passing it.
Il regret to say" it added, "that
the Republican party in the Senate
has lined up practically solid in
favor of this bogus voting law. When
this solid Republican vote is united
with that fraction of the Democratic
vote which apparently would rather
strike at Roosevelt than to win a
battle against our enemies they con-
stitute majority of the Senate.
II cannot understand how men,
honest and patriotic, can square
their position on this question by
voting for such an ineffective law
as this one is bound to be as
see it."
The bill, a compromise which at
tempt to strike balance between
the Federal ballot recommended by
the White House and the State
ballot urged by States Fighters" in
Congress, places prime emphasis on
State control of service voting. Mr.
Norris in his letter Endorsed the
position taken by Senator Guffey
who helped to lead the Senate fight
for the Federal ballot plan.

While Aunt Hovers Near
Pictures on Page BIZ

William Cammack, 18-year-o old
heir to a large Washington for
tune, was arraigned before
United States Commissioner
Needham C. Turnage today on
charges of violating the Selective
Service Act by refusing to regis
ter for the draft. The case was
continued for a week and the
boy released on $1,000 bond.
Young Cammack was arrested yes
terday at the family home, $500
Tilden street NV, where he and
three brothers live under the super
vision of an aunt, Miss Helen New
man, who accompanied him to the
commissioners office. After being
detained at the District Jail for
several hours, he was released on
bond and spent last night at home.
The youths arrival for arraign-
ment before Mr.. Turnage was highly
dramatic. He was brought from
home in an ambulance. Lying on a
stretcher with towel wrapped
around his head, he was carried into
Mr.. Turnages Office. A heavy growth
OF beard on his face indicated that
Cammack, who his aunt says is i'll.
had not shaved for several days.
Anxious Aunt Stands by.
Miss Newman, dressed in purple
and wearing red hat, lowered by
the boy anxiously.
When Mr.. Turnage read the
charge against Cammack, specifying
that he had failed to register for
the draft, Miss Newman promptly
interjected:
He was ill.,
Miss Newman, who appeared
highly agitated, was worried when
the attorney she had engaged, James
j. Laughlin, failed to appear in the
commissioners office.
HAS he given the case up?" she
asked.
Mr.. Turnage explained that he
had received message that Mr..
Laughlin was detained in court and
was unable to appear there.
The aunt also appeared annoyed
at two of the trustees of young
Cammack's estate, Arthur May and
G. Clifford Howard. Failing to see

MUSKOGEE, Okla, Mar. %
The Roosevelt administration
was handed to Second District
voters as the only issue in today's
special congressional election on
which national attention was
focused as an indication of the
political trend.
Winding up the campaign, in
which both local issues and the
candidates themselves were far
overshadowed, Senate Majority
Leader Barley told the voters in
a radio broadcast here last night
that you will render a verdict upon

Early Voting Light.
The campaign for the House seat
vacated by the resignation of Jack
Nichols, Democrat, has been fought
along national rather than local
lines. The candidates themselves
w. G.. Stigler, Democrat. and E. O.
Clark, Republican-have taken
somewhat of back seat for ma
tionally known talent.
Early voting in the contest was
reported light. One precinct here
which normally has a vote of 300
reported only IA ballots were cast
three hours after the polls opened.
About the same ratio was shown in
"a second precinct
Cloudy weather. with forecast of
rain, had been expected to bring out
a heavy farm vote in this agricul-
tural center.

the New Deal the dominant issue
Throughout, and the Democrats have
accepted the challenge.
Moore Sees Trial Of New Deal.
Senator Moore, Republican, OF
Oklahoma, who deserted the Demo-
cratic party and defeated Senator
Josh Lee, Democrat, on an anti
New Deal platform in 1912, said at
a rally here:
'In this election there is at least
a preliminary trial and test of the
New Deal"
Senator Barley, who came here
lat the invitation of party leaders,
urged selection of a candidate who
would cooperate with the admin
istration.
He lauded leadership of President
Roosevelt and outlined major legis-
lation of the last II years which
he described as ''the greatest con-
structive program ever inaugurated
or carried into effect by any admin
istration in the history of this
country"
Senator Barley condemned "po-
litical critics of what they described
scornfully as the New Deal"
Hits Lack Of Good Faith.
They are, he asserted, hurting
anathemas against the whole pro-
gram, but none of them has the
courage or good faith to tell the
people whose votes they seek which
OF these great legislative remedies
they would undo if given the power"
Senator Barley made no mention
OF his recent spectacular collision
with President Roosevelt over tax
legislation, but he said earlier in an
interview at Oklahoma City that
their occasional disagreements had
not affected his support of the adj
mlnistration or belief in its program.
Senator Barley high lighted spe-
officially as accomplishments of the
New Deal program the banking
