THE EVE NG STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, MONDAY, MAY 2, 192L CANDDATES O * FRHTINVRGINA Many May Lose Chance to \ Vote in Primaries Because | t of Poll Tax. ®pecial Dispateh to The Star. RICHMOND, Va. April 30.—Both Eenator Trinkle and Harry St. George Tucker, seeking the gubernatorial nominetion, are at last out in thel open and appealing to the voters of the state. There are few days in which they do not make speeches. Senator Trinkle is making two each day, and on one or two occasions he has made three addresses. Mr. Tucker | is going full speed ahead and the crowds attending the meetings are generally large. There is a good deal of enthusiasm being displaye directions. There is one thing i3 puzzling, however. in the camps The time for paying moll taxes ex- pires within the next §eek and few persons are coming up. This may be due to the ruling of the attorney general, who holds that the women— and they are the real element af- fected—can pay up to within thirty days before the final closing of the poil lists and then vote in the general election. However, if these women want to vote inthe primary, which is the real contest, they must pay their poll taxes and be registered on or Dbefore that date, Augus Lead for Trinkle C Col. Park P. Deans, one of the men working with Senator Trinkle, says there is no question that Senator Trinkle is far in the lead and he is firm in his opinion that the Wythe- iville man will win the nomination by at least 20.000. And the supporters of Mr. Tucker are coming right back imed. want to vote in the primary. which is by a larger majority than is claimed for Senator Trinkle. Mrs. B. B. Munford, one of the Yeading women of the city., a mem- ber of the school board for Rich- mond, foremost among the advocates |of admitting women to the Univer- {sity of Virginia and to all the high- er educational institutions, has open- Jy declared in favor of Senator Trin- Kle. L Practically all of the Virginians i heard form are supporting Judge Ed- nrund Waddill, jr. of this city for Tnited States circuit court judge, to {succeed the late Judge J. C. Pritch- \ard, of North Carolina. Regardless 'of 'political afiiliations, delegations from all of the cities of the state have urged his appointment. Many Teachers to Leave. There will be many vacancies in the schools of this city at the end of the session, and among these will be the teachers on the staff of the high school and the junior high | gchools. Ten per cent of the teach- ers are understood to have announc- ©d that they will 5o to other schools, (| where the pay is better. Tn many | cases they are to leave the state. {Only those teachers who have their homes here are able to hold their positions. their expenses heing about one-third of those who have to pay their board, room rent and incidental costs. ¥rom England comes a report that *Lord” P. C. Blake is onge again in trouble. Blake is well known here and in Culepper county. where he [ lived for a long time and where he ihas a wife and several children. ! Blake is charged with pretending to represent a New York paper, and when that fact became known the paper promptly repudiated him. He came to this city and for a short time he was empoyed on the reportorial staff of one of the afternoon papers in Richmond. He married a young woman here without a divorce from | his first wife, and he was sent to an | asylum. He recovered, and after that he was again in the courts. Blake is writing here to get records re- garding his conviction and the fact that he was committed to an asylum on the ground that he is unbalanced. It is not know on what charge he is held in England. Labor Fight On. For several months there has been - conflict between the union bricklayers of the city and the contractors over . wages. The contractors declared for *reduced wages and an open shop. They brought in non-union men. The union men have gotten Wwork else- ¢ of them nave al- ready 'left the city.

Real estate agents of the city have sounded a note of warning to prop- erty owners in Richmond, telling them that the time for increasing rents has passed ana pointing to the immense amount of building now go- ing on. There are a few owners who insist on adding to the recent enor- mous increase, with the chances that by the 1st of September there will be more vacant property than for a long time. Hundreds of homes are being built in all directions. and in a few instances there is a reduction, though in a vast majority of the cases it is a stand-pat policy and to let the occupants stay at the pres- ent_charge. - sov. George Latham Fletcher of auquier has broken all precedents n Virginia by naming Zaidee trother of Center district, that coun- ty. commissioner of the revenue.
