Police Seek Poacher
For Staying Of Pair in
New York Mountains
BY the Associated Press

TUXEDO PARK, N. Y, Oct. 27
The hunt for the killer of two
sportsmen in a lonely mountain
forest today centered in two
places-the crime laboratories anC
along the forest trails.
A dozen State troopers, trained
in the woodsman's art, secuted
anew the wild, rugged forest area
where banker and town clerk
were found shot down beside a
dead deer.
The newly slain deer was the
basis of one police theory that the
two were slain by a poacher
caught in the act of violating the
law against deer hunting at this
season.
Nugent Was Town Clerk.
The two dead men were Charles
E. Simpson, 38, a banker from
Saddle River, N. j., and Robert
Nugent, 46. town clerk of Ramapo
N. Y, who issued licenses to many
hunters in the area.
Each was shot twice. in the
body and the head, with a 12-
gauge shotgun. Five empty shot
gun shells were found in a hollow
about Is feet from their bodies.
Police searched today for. fur
ther clues-bits of clothing,
tracks or camp sites. They also
were questioning local hill folk.
some of whom repeatedly resent
game regulations and city hunters.
Lab Studies Shells.
At Middletown. N. Y, an au-
topsy was scheduled today on
the slug-torn bodies of the two
men. Ballistic experts were study
ing the shells at the State police
crime laboratory at Troy, N. Y.
Mr.. Simpson and Mr.. Nugent,
a footless war veteran, had left
their homes Saturday afternoon
to shoot squirrel and partridge.
Two teen-age squirrel hunters
stumbled on their bodies yester-
day.
Their jeep was parked on the
overgroWn trail nearby.
May Have Known Killer.
Investigators believed Mr.. Nu-
gents job may have contributed
to his death. 1t was thought he
may have recognized the illegal
hunter or hunters. since he issues
many of the hunting licenses in
this area.
Police o. lSloatsburg, N. Y,
where MI. Mgent lived, theor-
lied that the two men were driv-
ing through the woods in a jeep
en- route to- their hunting area
when they saw poachers drag
ging the deer. The deer season
opens November Is, but squirrel
and partridge hunting is now
legal.

in doubt for the first time since
1923 and the second time this
century.
A Democratic rebellion that
splintered off segments of the
once-solid Texas Party in 1914
and 1948 split it wide open this
year.
For the first time in history, a
Democratic Governor of Texas has
joined the Republicans in backing
their presidential candidate. Gov.
Allan ShiverS' displeasure with
New Deal and Fair Deal policies
boiled over when Gov. Stevenson
said he could not agree with Texas
claims to submerged offshore lands
and their potential-and disputed
oil wealth.
New Alliance Forms.
The revolt brought an open al
lance between Gov. Shivers, his
established State party machinery
and a militant Republican organi-
zation making its first serious ef-
fort in a quarter of a century to
win the Texas electoral vote. Moth
ing like it had ever happened in
historically Democratic Texas.
The outcome Is so uncertain
that both parties sent their presi-
dental candidates criss-crossing
the State, setting another prece-
dent in election year strategy.
Never before had both parties
found it necessary or desirable to
barnstorm Texas with their top
men.
Senator Nixon returns today.
Senator Sparkman was scheduled
to return but was forced to can
eel his trip because of illness.
The Associated Press second
1852 survey of political thinking
in Texas confirmed the profess
sional politicians views that in
mid october the outcome here was
uncertain. In August the survey
by newspapermen showed they
believed Gen. Eisenhower held a
narrow margin, with many voters
uncertain.
The uprising Of Gov. Shivers
and other State Democratic lead
ers such as Attorney General
Price Daniel, unopposed nominee
for the United States Senate. was
met by a combat team from the
national party. It was headed by
House Speaker Sam Rayburn and
Senator johnson. They enlisted
an unexpected ally in former vice
president Garner, who came out
of political retirement to indorse
Gov. Stevenson.
Mr.. Garner broke with Frank

lin D. Roosevelt In 1941. He has
been regarded as typical of con-
servative Texas Democrats whose
party loyalty has often been
strained over FEPC, tidelands and
other New Deal policies.
Big Vote BlOcS Are Key.
The big question today is whose
side the rank and file voters will
join, especially the large number
still apparently undecided. Texas
potential vote is 2.5 million and
best estimates are the turnout
will be another record-breaking
l.5 million to 1.8 million.
The voters may stay hitched
with Democratic tradition, backed
by appeals to their distrust of
Republicans generally, fear of de-
preston, and prosperity argu-
mentS.
Or they may line up with Gov.
Shivers who says the issue is good
Government or bad, Trumanism,
corruption, creeping socialism"
and especially the question of who
controls offshore submerged lands
claimed by Texas since it was a
republic.
Texas has not given its electoral
vote to a Republican since Her.
bert Hoover squeezed out a mar
row victory over AL Smith in 1928.
The issue was Gov. Smiths re-
ligion and it had no connection
with today's revolt.
Cut Ties to New Deal.
Conservative Texas Democrats
began breaking away from the
New Deal in 1910. It led to devel-
opment of two feuding factions !:
The conservatives headed by a
succession of anti-New Deal gov
ernorS; the liberals, with leaders
like Speaker Rayburn and Senator
johnson.
Conservative Democratic gov
ernorS nave won every race over
New Deal opponents in recent
years, but they stayed reluctantly
in the national party. Gov. Shivers
was re-nominated by the Demo-
Gratis last summer before he be-
came the first Texas governor to
make clean break and campaign
for Republican.
The Governor headed q con-
servative Texas delegation to the
Chicago convention in July. It
was seated after a contest with a
rival liberal slate when Gov.
Shivers promised to do all he
could to see to it the Democratic
presidential nominees name
would be printed on the ballot in
the usual Democratic column.
The State convention in Sep
tember fulfilled the pledge. Then
it overwhelmingly urged Gov.
ShiverS and all State party leaders
to back Gen. Eisenhower. They
did by forming an organization
known as the Texas Democrats
for Eisenhower whose leadership

Loud Conversation
Traps Bandit Suspects

Threatening voices through a
window brought police on the run
early today and foiled a bandit
pair.
Pvts. John Ripa and John J.
Rubenstahl of No. 13 precinct
were sent to Eighteenth and Swan
streets NV. to meet an excited
citizen.
William Cash, colored, of 1927
Riggs place NW-at the corner
when they arrived-told them he
had been walking along the street
and heard voices threatening to
kill some one.
Pvts. Ripa and Rubenstahl
hastened to a house nearby on
Swan street where they seized
two men emerging. At the same
time, William H. Michaels, 81, COL
ored, who lives in a basement
apartment, opened the door and
shouted he had been robbed.
Mr.. MichaelS told police the
two men forced their way into
his apartment and threatened to
kill him if he wouldn't tell where
his money was hidden.
He directed them to a cigar box
IN a dresser drawer. They took
$27 in bills and $3.50 in change
from the box and q cents from
Mr.. Michaels' pocket.
Police placed robbery charges
against Rudolph T. Petifort, 81,
colored. of the 1900 block of Sher-
man street NV. and Clifford
1goe, 30, colored, of the 100 block
of Eighteenth street NV.
They also planned to question
them about a recent holdup in
which a Columbia road liquor
store proprietor was beaten.

Press on Gov. Stevenson's Train
IStumped by Close Compoiqn

throughout the country than the
average reporter. Like the candi-
dates themselves, they are told
what they want to be told. In
most cases, their optimism is en-
ltirely genuine, based on entirely
untrustworthy information from
local subordinates. They are, per-
haps. the only people who have a
real conviction about the cam
1paign and half of them will be in
for profound shock on Novem-
ber 5
The local experts usually have
an opinion of how the election will
go in their districts, carefully
hedged with enough "iffy" condi-
tions to make them at least un-
certain. 1t is apparently as hard
to figure out how any given 10000
men and women will vote as it is
to predict the intentions of 1OC
million
Self Confidence Shaken.
Reporters. of course, pay close
attention to the polls. They are
pollsters themselves in a sense,
concentrating their efforts on
what might be called the more in
formed segment of opinion. But
there is feeling that the poll
Isters are suffering from the same
Iaffliction that set in during No.
Ivember 1948, when the reporters
and the pollsters found out just
how wrong they could be. 1t is
not that any one has lost conf
Idence in the polls. It is simply
the suspicion that the pollsterS
have lost confidence in them
selves.
The result is that every one,
from the most scientific opinion
sampler to the tea-leaf reader, is
playing his cards close to the
chest this year. In fact, there
is only one man who may know
how the election is going to go.
That's the man on the street
and he isn't talking.

noticed a pupil had a comic book
rated as Objectionable in Parents

books TO school. When they did
she discovered that they had quite
few Objectionable books.
AS a first step in solving the
problem, sermon on the family
was preached at the two parish
Masses. The sermons stressed the
obligation of vigilance and super
vision on the part of the parents.
The parents were instructed to
inspect the comic books, weed out
the Objectionable ones and burn
them.
