 New York, Aug. 21-(UP)-Fav- ored sons of the C.I.O. Political Ac- ton Committee were soundly trounced in an attempt to invade" the Republican Party ticket, re- turns from yesterdays New York state primary showed today.
 They scored victories in American Labor Party primaries and some in the Democratic voting, but had zero in an ambitious try to garner a Republican nomination.
 High-l lighting the voting was the defeat of ALP. Congressman Vito Marcantonio in the 18th District in his bid for the Republican nomina- ton. Marcantonio, generally re- garded as one of the most left winged legislators in Washington, won the Democratic and the ALP. nominations, but was whipped by Frederic " P. Bryan, backed by the regular Republican organization. Two years ago, Marcantonio won all three nominations. Marcan- tonio's vote over the Democratic as- pirant, Patrick J. Hannigan, was unexpectedly close, and a knock down fight between Marcantonio and Bryan in the November elec- ton was in prospect.
 Dewey's Man Wins m
 Second in interest was the defeat of Rep. Joseph c. Baldwin, a New Deal-voting Republican who was backed by the FAC. in the Repub- lican primary for nomination. He was overwhelmed by Frederic R. Coudert, Jr., in the so-called silk stocking" or 17th District of New York City. The Coudert victory in the Republican primary was con- sidered a victory for Gov. Thomas E. Dewey. The governor, however, took no sides publicly in the cam paign, but Coudert was the choice of the party machine.
 Baldwin won the American Labor Party nomination unopposed with Myron Sulzberger. Jr., winning the Democratic nomination, thus set ting up a three-way contest in November.
 Baldwin, however, issued a state ment early today saying that al- though his name would appear on the ALP. ballot, he had no desire to be candidate on the Labor Party ticket.
 "The Republicans of my district have made their decision. | intend to abide by that decision. and con- tinue my fight as a liberal Repub- lican within the party To do otherwise at this point would in my opinion jeopardize the liberal cause in which I so earnestly believe his statement said.
 He urged his supporters to vote for some other candidate who in their opinion will best represent their views"
 Set Up Three Way Contest
 The CLOS FAC. also suffered a major setback in it's attempt to win the Democratic denomination of Rep. George Rooney in the 4th District, Queens. Rooney, for whom the P.AC. made an active cam- paign, was beaten by Rep. William B. Barry, in the Democratic prim- ary, but won the American Labor Party nomination. Barry. described as "pre-War isolationist' piled up a lead of almost to l against Rooney.
 Still another FAC. candidate. Eugene Connolly, state secretary of the ALP, was defeated in the Democratic contest for the 2lst Dis trict nomination He bowed to Daniel Flynn, and here again will be another threeway battle in the November election.
 The FAC. also tried to win the Republican nomination for Con- gress for Rep. Adam Clayton Powell, Jr,, in the 22d District, Manhattan, as he had done two years ago along with victories in the Democratic and ALP. races. But Grant Reynolds, another Negro and former Army captain, with the support of heavyweight boxing champion Joe Louis, edged out Powell, thus assuring a two-way contest in November.
 O'Tooles Fate Uncertain
 The fate of P.AC.s candidate Donald L. O'Toole in Brooklyn's 18th District Democratic Congress Slonal race was still uncertain. O'Toole was unopposed for the ALP. nomination, but trailed Arthur F. Hurley, war veteran, in the Democratic contest. Hurley had 1l,684 votes to OToole's 1l.552, With one precinct out of 155 still not tabulated because of a protest
