| —-~ y THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE. TUESDAY, APRIL 14, 1936 NATION'S POLITICAL | ‘SPOTLIGHT TURNED ON ILLINOIS POLLS Republican Preference Duel Be- tween Knox and Borah Has Eyes of Interested Chicago, April 14—(@)—The na- tion’s political spotlight was trained be the Illinois primary elections Tues- lay. Bitterness engendered by one of the most hectic campaigns of the century Prompted elaborate precautions at the polls, as national leaders watch- ed the voting in the Republican pres- idential preference duel between Senator William E. Borah of Jdaho and Col. Frank Knox, pubdlishe: of Chicago. It was the first man-to-man test of two ranking contenders’ for the GOP nomination. Observers sgreed the results would have an important bearing on the party’s pre-convention battle. Headquarters of Knox, outspoken critic of the administration, promised a sweeping triumph. §E. J. Cook, Borah manager, foresaw “a very handsome victory.” The Idahoan, foe of the “Old Guard” and commana- ing 21 of Wisconsin’s 24 delegates al- though defeated in New York, issued no forecast from Washington. FDR Is Unopposed Democratic stalwarts concentrated on getting out a “smashing vote” for President Roosevelt—unopposed on their party’s preferment ballot—to clinch their claims that Illinois was still in the New Deal column. Neither preference vote was bind- ing on the 50 convention delegates which each party named. The state devoted major attention to the Democratic gubernatorial con- test between Gov. Henry Horner, whose candidacy was rejected by the regular organization, and Dr. Herman N. Bundesen, carrying the regular banner. Mayor Edward J. Kelly of Chicago and National Committeeman P. A. Nash predicted Bundensen, Chicago health commissioner, would sweep every ward and earn a majority of at least 300,000 in Chicago. “Victory is ours,” asserted Governor Horner. Horner accused his opponents of using “force, terrorism and misrep- resentation” in his concluding blast. Bundensen accused the Hornerites of “confusing the voters with false is- sues.” Each pictured himself as Roo- sevelt’s best teammate next November. Seven Seek Nomination Much interest was devoted to the Republican gubernatorial nomination, sought by seven aspirants, including C. Wayland Brooks, former Chicago prosecutor, and former Governor Len Bmaill. The entire Chicago police force was assigned to duty. One patrolman was Btationed at each polling place. Polling places were open from 6 a. m. to 5 p. m. as citizens nominated candidates for governor, five state of- ficers, U. S. senator, congress, the general assembly, and county posts. Illinois will have 57 delegates at the | ing. Republican national convention and 68 at the Democratic convention. Fifty uninstructed and 50 alternates were picked by each party Tuesday. ‘The remainder will be selected at state conventions May 1.

NEIL (Associated Press Foreign Staff) Selaclaca, Takkaze Region, Ethi- opia, March 25.—(By Airmail and Boat to New York, April 14.—(#)—In front of a cave in the sunken ravine of the Selaclaca plain life and death Played a weird drama for a full day, toying with the lives of a wounded Italian officer and a courageous Eri- trean native sergeant, dropping the curtain finally in the flaming death of eight Ethiopians barricaded in the cavern, Two officers, with a platoon help- | Ma ing clear up the ravine after the main battle was over, came up past the mouth of the cave. They had no idea anyone was hiding there. The first blast of shots through the holes in the barricade across the mfouth of the cave dropped one officer dead within 20 feet of the entrance, the other wounded through the legs. ‘The soldiers fell back. They couldn’t charge, or risk hand gre- nades for fear of killing the wounded officer. They blasted away at the holes in the barricade. A colonel came with a couple of natives. They shouted to the eight men in the cave in their own Am- haric language. “Come out without firing and your lives are saved. We will set you free.” “We won't come out. We die fight- The eight men in the cave started @ slow death chant, firing every time they got a chance. The lieutenant stirred on the ground. A native ser- geant tried to creep up from the side. He was picked off, wounded. ‘There was only one thing to do. the Colonel sent for a flame-throwing machine, used only for disinfecting purposes after the battle. It was set up under cover, near the mouth of the cave. Again the colonel shouted: “Will you come out? You may go free, with your guns.” The death chant rose higher. “We won't come out. We die.” The flame thrower was turned on. The smoke thickened, the chant slowly died away. Then the soldiers took away the body of the dead officer, and carried the wounded away to a hospital . NATURE TAKES 1,300 LIVES SINCE JAN. 4 Major and Minor Disasters in U. S.

An unusually cold winter took a heavy toll, and spring thaws brought heavy floods which drowned hun- dreds. Southern tornadoes completed the disaster roll. An Associated Press survey showed at least 542 persons died from causes related to the severely cold weather, 548 from tornadoes, gales and light- ning, and 214 from floods. Tornadoes at Tupelo, Miss. and Gainesville, Ga., and the floods at Pittsburgh, Johnstown, Pa, and Wheeling, W. Va., took the heaviest toll. The American Red Cross estimated that besides lives lost, major and mi- nor disasters injured 4,924 persons, affected 622,060, destroyed 6,583 homes and, damaged 44,629. Property damage ran into hundreds of millions of dollars. Only five states—Arizona, Louisi- ana, Nevada, New Mexico, and Texas did not report any deaths. The freighter Iowa was wrecked in @ gale off the Oregon coast, with: 34 members of the crew losing their lives. Asurvey of the deaths by states fol- lows. The totals have been compiled from daily reports, although in a few cases they are estimated on the basis of available figures.
