Both Parties
Prepare Lines
For Battle

Both political parties il
L in C ol IN County are now
drawing battle lines for the
November general election.
Old-timers here expect the
election to be one of the most
interesting held in this coun-
ty in recent years.
Both congressional candi-
dates were in town Saturday
preparing for what is expect
I'd to be a close and tight
race.
Incumbent Democratic U. S.
Rep. A. Paul Kitchin was on hand
for the formal opening of Lincoln
County Democratic Headquarters
on West Main Street.
The opening was attended by
a number of enthusiastic county
party dignataries and party
members.
Incumbent Republican U. S.
Rep. Charles Raper Jonas was also
in town for an equally enthusias-
tic gathering of Republican work
ers for workshop.
Kitchin and Jonas will be the
only incumbent congressman fac
ing each other in North Carolina.
This is a result of changes made
in their districts by the N. C. Cen
eral Assembly as result of North
Carolina falling behind in the rate
of population growth.
Jonas and Kitchin both have
.ull schedules in Washington
where Congress is still in session
and about the only campaign ap-
pearances they make in the dis
trict are the hurry-up trips to the
district on weekends.
This handicap is expected to
| continue at least through the first
of October.
UNDER STRAIN
Both Kitchin and jonas are
placed under a severe mental
and physical strain by full
schedules both in the district
and in Washington.
In other party matters, Demo-
Gratis have a heavy schedule of
precinct meetings between now
and Sept. 20.
Republicans also have scheduled
