BANGKOK, Siam, June 15.-A
Siamese newspaper. openly challeng-
ing an official assertion that King
Amanda Mahidol died in a gun
accident, printed a banner head
line today that I'VE suspect our
king was assassinated."
The weekly paper Thieng-Them
said that evidence indicated the
king, who died last Sunday from a
bullet wound, had been shot from
behind and that the position of the
gun seemed to preclude suicide or
accident.
Meanwhile, unrest was spreading
in Siam, with growing rumors that
the young king was the victim Of

Mead and Dewey Race
Held Virtually Certain
By New York Leaders
Democrats Seek to Get
Lehman to Agree to
Enter Senate Contest
By Gould Lincoln
S'or S.off Correspondent

NEW YORK, June u.s. The
lineup in the Republican-Demo-
cratic races for gubernatorial
and senatorial nominations in
New York State is beginning to
crystalize. Leaders in both par
ties agree as of today that the
Governors race in the general
election will be between Gov
Dewey, Republican, and Senator
Mead, Democrat. &
The State conventions of both
parties, at which the nominations
are to be made. will be held the first
week in September and the posi-
bility exists of later changes, how
ever.
The chance that Justice Jackson
Of the Supreme Court might become
the Democratic nominee for Cover
nor is now out Of the window, poll
tical observers here hold, because of
the Supreme Court fued, brought
into the open by Justice Jackson's
bitter attack on Justice Black.

postpone making his public charge
against Justice Black until the Pres
ident could talk it over" with Justice
Jackson, it is believed, makes a Jack
son candidacy for the governorship
out OF the question Antagonist of
the Administration in Washington.
1t is held, would be fatal to Justice
Jackson's ambition to win the GU
bernatorial nomination, if he has
any.
Mead May Settle Issue.
Furthermore, Democratic State
Chairman Paul Fitzpatrick and
Democratic National Chairman Ed
Flynn, boss of the Bronx, have gone
so far in their efforts to line up all
the party leaders for Senator Mead
apparently with his consent-there
seems to be no way out but to nom
mate the Senator. Senator Mead
himself could settle the matter once
and for all by saying that he had
decided to make bid for the guber-
material Office and to give up seeking
denomination for the Senate. Some
OF the Democratic leaders say that
when he comes to New York this
week to address a meeting of postal
employees, he may clarity his political
plans.
An unknown factor is James A.
Farley, former Democratic national
chairman and former Democratic
state chairman. Mr.. Farley is bit
terly hostile to the nomination of
Senator Mead. To all intents and
purposes, Mr.. Farley is now out of
the political game, with a good
business connection.
He does not believe, however. that
Senator Mead is the man to elect
governor of New York. and he made
that clear when he returned from
Europe a number of weeks ago. Mr..
Farley described the qualifications
which he thought a governor should
have. He was asked by an inquiring
reporter whatever Senator Mead
filled the bill. His immediate reply
was mo comment" which was in
terpreted as rejection of the
senator.

Just what Mr.. Farley can do about
heading off Senator Mead is not

RIO DE JANEIRO, June IS. -
Herbert Hoover told a press con-
ference here today that the uni
versal party line of the Com

trying to break down the pro-
vision of food for hungry people
and thus produce chaos where

Mr.. Hoover, in Brazil on a food
study in South America for Presi-

analysis of the Communist policy
on food were mot the case, it
would appear that this is the time
for Moscow to establish a new
party line in the Communist press

Mr.. Hoover, who said the gov

'Trifling Flour Change
Only Noticeable in Color
Nv WILLIAM brady, Md,

ny WILLIAM 0nkADNp Wa ~
Within a few hours after the
report Of the Presidents plan to
improve the nutritional value Of
-four was published the stocks Of
white flour in retail markets and
groceries were exhausted-by self
fish, ignorant people. Selfish in
grabbing a surplus for themselves
even II they make it impossible for
their neighbors to get any flour at
all. Ignorant because the trifiing
change in flour is hardly noticeable
anyway, except possibly in color.
Bread made Of the improved flour
is not quite SO white or rather 1t is
a shade darker in color, so the
technicians tell us.
I say the improved flour has
greater nutritional value than the
tiltrarefined white flour has or had.
It yields all the calories that white
flour yields, plus more Of the pro-
tein and more Of the vitamins Of
the wheat.
The fundamental reason why GER
tain interests deplore and oppose
this improvement in the nutitional
value of -four is of course that may
be only the first step in the return
to general use Of -four that is nu-
tritionally adequate, such flour as
everybody in America used prior to
the introduction of the roller mill
In 1910. What would happen to the
flour monopoly If the stone mills
came back to towns and villages
everywhere? The interests enjoy
their monopoly because refined
white flour can be shipped any

Make your hats and clothes pay
homage to your hair, 1t it's gray.
Gray hair deserves stellar billing
and will get tin dashing spring
hats Of vivid shades, chosen for line
rather than trimming. The only
color that needs firm rejection is
brown. The styles and shapes to be
scorned are any which are Sedate
or mature.
Make gray hair your badge OF
distinction by pointing it up with
the clothes that you wear. To focus
attention upon hair, keep line of
clothes simple. AS for color Of dress
there are no two which will frame
gray hair more strikingly than black
and navy blue. But you can point UP
the drama of your hair by using
touches Of cracker crisp white or
delicate shades of lingerie frou-frou
placed at your throat.
Just as yellow in clothes COM
plements the honey-haired blonde,
so does warm gray pay ribute to
the woman whose hair Is a nimbus
of the same color. Again, brown in
dress should be rejected for the same
reason that Is verboten for hats: it
throw yellowish cast upon hair.

six.
Roth trumped the opening club

diamond. South thought 1t over

Roth trumped Mrs. Sobel (North

1t was simple, back in the good
old prewar days. You could have

A DIFFERENT STORY NOW
But it's different today. Families
who have had houses sold out
from under them, or who have lived
in mortal fear that such calamity
would make them homeless. have
new respect for the idea of own
ing their home.
And thousands Of young couples
who wouldn't have dreamed, in the
old days, of buying home are
finding that If they want roof
over their heads they have to buy.
Instead of plying home-owners,
those who once yearned for the UNI

Permanence is beginning to look
good. If the housing shortage sus-
ceeds in making horne-oWners of
the country's young married folks,
there will be one ray Of sunshine
