One Republican candidate for the

then the election, after venerable

not to stand for denomination.
All this, however, was not with
out a preliminary contest, for MI.
Schoeppel announced his candidacy
as early as November, 1947, before
Senator Capper had decided not to
run for another term.
Mr.. Schoeppel was elected Gov
ernor in 1912 and. when reelected
two years later, he carried every
county in the State. On leaving the

Dies At 93

Wiley Griffin, aged 80, father
of Rev. Emanuel Griffin. passed
away at Boston City Hospital on
Monday, Aug. 9. Funeral serv-
ices will be at the Chisholm
Funeral Chapel, 532 Columbus
Ave, Boston, where the body
lies in state, Monday, August 16,
at l P. NJ, with Rev. Frank
Broc4zins officiating and inter-
ment at Mt. Hope Cemetery.
Rev. Griffin brought his father
TO Boston from Muskogee, Okla,
last February. Deceased was
born in Norman, Ga. and was
the father of six children of
whom Rev. Griffin only survives.
The latter had not seen or heard
from his father in 81 years, till
the meeting last February. In
fact, he believed his father dead.
1t was through the kindness OF
Deacon F. H. Wardlow of Muska-
gee that Rev. Griffin was en-
abled to locate his father who at
that time was living alone and
in Ill. health. Deacon Wardlow
locked in the aged mans family
Bible and discovered all the
names Of his children and when
they were born. To find any
living relative he inserted adj
vertisements in several papers.
A cousin saw the advertisement
and sent it to Rev. Griffin who
answered the advertisement by
writing to Deacon Wardlow.
Assured of the identity of his
parent, Rev. Griffin left at once
for the western city and found
his father living alone in his own
home but in poor health.
On his return to Boston Rev.
Griffin said: II need not say
that our reunion was a joyful
one because it is clearly under
sttod. Because Of my fathers
age and health I brought him
back home with me in a private
compartment, so his trip home
was a comfortable one"

NEW YORK, Mar. 27.-A spokes-
man for a congressional subcom-
mittee said today that 43 carloads Of
oil well piping Is awaiting shipment
to South American and Asiatic ports
where it is believed at least part Of
it will be reshipped to the Soviet
Union.
The spokesman, e. r. Ferguson,
jr, assistant counsel to the SUBJ
committee Of the House Public
Works Committee, said his report
was conjecture" but added it was
based on the opinion Of people who
have good inside knowledge" Of
the shipments.
Oil well piping Is virtually un-
obtainable in this country, Mr..
Ferguson said, and the shortage is
delaying the development OF new oil
fields in the United States.
Backed by House Member.
Mr.. Ferguson was backed up by
Representative Macy, Republican, OF
New York, chairman Of the sub
committee, who said Mr.. Ferguson
is a competent, careful man."
Mr.. Macy said he had received q
"full report" from Mr.. Ferguson and
members of the investigating group
under the assistant counsel. The
Congress member said he would
look into this thing svery
thoroughly"
Mr.. Macy said he was told by the
investigators that it Is impossible to
get full record Of what is aboard q
ship leaving United States ports
until 96 hours after It has sailed" +"
Mr.. Ferguson said the piping, re.
ported to be in excess OF 5000, 900
feet, now Is at the Erie Railroad
terminal at Weehawken, N. J. He
said it has been bought by New
York brokers.
Russian Subterfuge Seen.
There Is no indication that brok-
ers here are In any way connected
with Russian agents or that they
are aware that the pipe Is destined
for shipment to Russia" Mr.. Fer
guSon said.
"The committee believes that Rus
sia Is using this subterfuge as q
means of getting as much material
out OF the United States as pos
sible," he said.

gator, however, that a lot Of cargo
