Denies Manchurian
Fighting Is Serious
By the As>ocIoisd Pres,

CHUNGKING, Feb. 18.-Com-

here today on what is happen

that no major fighting was taking

The spokesman predicted settle

New York 10 Elect
IDickstein 5 Successor
lin House Tomorrow
by the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Feb. ia special
congressional election in New York's
Lower East Side tomorrow may be q
straw in the political winds for the
Nationwide elections for the House
this fall.
Three candidates are seeking the
New York 10Th district congressional
post vacated by Samuel Dickstein
Democrat. who resigned to become
State Supreme Court judge.
They are Arthur G. Klein, Demo-
crat and former House member who
lost his seat through reapportion-
ment; Capt. William S. Shea. Re-
publican, who is still in the Army
and Johannes Steel, commentator
for a New York radio station and
nominee for the American Labor
party.
In the last congressional election
Mr.. Dickstein polled 52,586 votes on
his own party ticket and 1887 on
the ALPS to rs, 494 for the Republi-
can candidate, William L. Lehrfeld
However, political observers believe
the total vote tomorrow will be only
about one-third Of 1914
Mr.. Steel has the backing OF Sec
Rotary of Commerce Wallace and
former Mayor Fiorello H. La Guar
dia, while Mr. Klein has received
the support of Senator Wagner. Mr.
Shea's campaign has been carried
on by friends.
Senator Wagner, just before leav-
ing last night for two-week vaca
ton in Florida after a months hos
pitalization for pneumonia, said he
favored Mr.. Klein because the for
mer Representative established a
splendid record in the House and
voted consistently for progressive
measures"
