Senator Shipstead enjoyed a wlde !lead in Minnesota over eight other ! Republicans. In Vermont, Senator Austin was | | renominated, unopposed. Ashurst, whose opposition to' the | conscription bill worked against him | in his Arizona campaign, trailed op- ponent Ernest McFarland who led | | almost two to one. Louisiana returns indicated four members of the House of Represen- tatives were defeated and three others are facing uncertain results. Governor Sam Jones, elected last winter by the anti-Long forces, éd the defeat of all ¢ight incumbents as supporters of the Long organiza- tion, but oné did not seek renom- ination. Besides renomination of Austin in Vermont, Republicans picked Gov- ernor Aiken, frequent New Deal crit- |ic, for the Senate vacancy created by the death of Senator Gibson. Governor Stassen was in the lead for the Minnesota renomination over two critics of his administration. Michigan’s octogenarian Governor Dickson, who gained national atten- tion some months back when he condemned big city vice and evils of liquor, was far out in front of six younger ivals.
