Contest in Oklahoma
Holds Main Interest
In a Primaries TODAY
BY the Associated Press

Democrats in four Southern
States are holding primaries today
with national interest centered
primarily on a senatorial race in
Oklahoma.
There. Senator Elmer Thomas
chairman of the Senate Agricul-
ture Committee and a veteran OF
the Washington scene since 1927
is trying to hold off the bid oil
Representative Mike Monroney
who has been in the House Il
years.
Mr.. Monroney led Senator
Thomas in the senatorial primary
July 4 but lacked a clear majority
because the total vote was split
by other candidates then in the
field. This time it is strictly Mon
roney VS.. Thomas.
War Preparedness Is Issue.
MIR. Monroney has campaigned
in the second go-around with the
argument that Senator Thomas,
as chairman of the Senate Appro-
priations Subcommittee handling
military appropriations, is partly
responsible for the plight of Amer
lean forces in Korea.
Senator Thomas has challenged
Mr.. Monroney'S stand on farm
legislation, matter of much con-
cern in Oklahoma.
The other states, in brief:
Arkansas-There is a national
angle in the race for the nomi-
nation for Governor between Gov
Sid McMath and former Gov. Ben
Laney. Mr.. Laney is a leader of
anti-Truman Democrats while
Gov. McMath has supported much
of the Truman program.
Long Has Two Opponents.
Louisiana-The main race is for
the Senate, between Senator Rus
sell Long, son of the late Huey
P. Long, and two opponents:
Malcolm La Fargue, Shreveport
lawyer indorsed by the major
groups which oppose the Long
faction. and former Representa-
tive Newt Mills of Monroe.
South Carolina-Most State
wide races were settled in a first
primary July II but two congress
sional district nominations are
being decided. Representative
Hugo Sims of Orangeburg faces
former Representative John j.
Riley of Sumter and Representa-
tive James B. Hare of Saluda is
opposed by former Representative
w. j. B. Dorm Of Greensboro.
Democratic nomi nations in
South Carolina, Arkansas and
