Senate Goal of Barkley and Chandler In Kentucky’s Newest Political Feud Fight Between National and State Democratic Organizations Promise Plenty of Fireworks By JOHN MASTERSON LOUISVILLE, Ky., March 19, The campaign of Senator Alben W. Barkley and Gov. A. B. "Happ. Chandler for Kentucky's Democra- tic Senatorial nomination promises to be a spectacular affair. With victory at the August pri- maries the goal, Barkley and Chan- dler camps are priming their guns for what appears to be a pitched battle between national and state Democratic organizations. Barkley, familiarly known “Dear Alben,” to President Roos velt, is the nominator of Roosevelt at na- ional party conventions. he is now majority leader of the Senate. Chandler, a former football player, is extremely popular among has been brought under control. Of | younger Democratic voters. Known L he has enjoyed the support of ‘a “rubber s a “mild” New Dealer. stamp” Democratic legislature Because Senator Barkley is con- sidered a favorite of the Washing- | ton administration, candidacy of Chandler stands as a gubernatorial defi to the New Deal advocate The dctual break came when the governor refused to attend a Bark- as the “Roosevelt” man. Twice 1 s Senator Abfln ‘W. Barkley ley testimonial dinner in Louisville, which preceded Barkley's announce- ment for re-election by 24 hours The Chandler candiaacy WwWas launched at a banquet in Newbury- port, where his chief adviser, Dan Talbott, revealed that formation of Chandler clubs was already under way. ‘With New Deal popularity still running high in Kentucky, the odds may seem to favor the sena- tor. Those who have observed the governor’s regime, however, predic! he will show surprising strength. From his important Senate seal at Washington, Barkley will con- duct a long-distance campat during the early spring months. Chandler, aided by his well-oiled state political machine, will [ire away from Lexington. Although the balloting may pro- duce no such bloody results as the celebrated Hatfield-McCoy feuds, it will be pretty warm just the same.
