Engineer Announces Closing of Road at Points and Lists Detours. By a Staf Correspondent of The Star. ARLINE'TON COUNTY COURT HOUSE, Va., August 5.—Although the contract for the widening and recon- struction of Wilson Boulevard wiil not | be let until next week, there is so much excavating to be done by the | county and public utility concerns that the road will be badly torn up by the end of this week, it was said today by Sanitary Engineer Thomas N. De- Lashmutt. Work was started today on the new sewer iine that extends from Oak street to Wilson Boulevard and up the lat- ter thoroughfare to Maple street. The requirad number of signatures for this project were obtained soveral weeks ago, but the actual construction of the line was delayed to await the opening of the street-widening bids. To Lay Water Mains. DeLashmutt also stated the work will commence this week on the laying of water mains along Wilson Boulevard. It is the intention of the county to put in final supply lines ahead of the highway construction work. These will, for the first time, furnish county water | to the entire section of Wilson Boule- ELEGTRIC RATE CUT INFAIRFAX COUNTY {Reduction in Service Costs Saves Users in District $5,000 Annually. Special Dispatch to The Star. FAIRFAX, Va, August 5.—The State Corporation Commission has approved, | effective August 1, a reduction in the optional metered domestic service and the residential lighting service rate| schedules of the Herndon district of the Virginia Public Service Co. This dis- | trict includes Fairfax, Vienna, Herndon, Merrifield, Dunn Loring, Idylwood, | Tysons Corners, Andrew Chapel. Colvin Run, Centerviile, Burke, Annandale, Lincolnia and Cameron Valley. The re- | duction is voluntary on the part of the | company and is in keeping with its an- nounced policy of reducing rates as fast | as earnings will permit. The B. H. rate schedule for cooking and domestic_service, formerly 10 cents \-per kilowatt hour for the first 50 kilo- watt hours and 3! cents for additional hours, has been reduced to 10 cents for | the first 40 kilowatt hours, with all over | that at 315 cents. This means a saving | of $1 to every customer who uses 50 or more kilowatt hours per month. The R. H. rate schedule for residential light- ing service was 14 cents per kilowatt hour for the first 25 kilowatt hours and It has |12 cents for the next 275 hours. Wind Up Slow Primary Campaign. Bpecial Dispatch to The Star. RICHMOND, Va., August 5.—Virginia Democrats choose in their regular Sum- mer primary tomorrow the candidates which will meet the Republican anti- Smith coalition candidates in the bat- tle for the control of the State No- vember B. ‘The candidates for the governorship nomination, John Garland Pollard of | Willismsburg, G. Walter Mapp of Ac- |comac and Rosewell Page of Hanover, today issued their final messages and retired to their homes to vote and to await the returns tomorrow night. Headquarters of the candidates in Richmond were winding up their work this afternoon with telephone and messages to State leaders. A total vote .of approximately 160,- 000 was indicated—a small vote, due to the relatively slow primary cam and to the intention of some hitherto Democratic voters to remain out of the primary so they may vote inde- pendently ‘in November. Richmons Norfolk, Roanoke, Lynchbur} and Dal ville were expected to vote fairly heav- ily, due to local contests. ‘There is only one contested State of- fice upon the primary ticket—the gov- ernorship. The democratic candidate for lieutenant governor, James Price of .Richmond, and the Democratic can- didate for attorney general, John R. Saunders of Middlesex, are not op- posed. Many Local Candidates. The local candidates on the tickets of various cities and towns include members of the General Assembly, com- monwealth attorneys, city sergeant treasurers, commissioners of revenu high, constables, sheriffs, court clerks and magistrates. Coalition slates against the local candidates of the Democrats have been prepared in some of the counties and cities, particularly candidates for the Assembly and for the more lucrative of the offices, such as commissioner of revenue, commonwealth's attorney and clerkships. The primary campaigns of the State candidates for governor and of the local candidates have been conducted separately and an unexampled harmony has been prevalent among the Demo- crats, largely because the coalition | threat is hanging over them. For more than 40 years in Virginia nominations in the Democratic primary for State office has been practically tantamount to election, since the Demo- crats have outnumbered the Republic- ans by more than two to one. This condition was changed in the presidential contest last year when the alliance of the anti-Smith party under Bishop James Cannon, jr., and the Re- publican party, carried Virginia for Hoover by nearly 25.000. Since so many Democrats changed their political allegiance in the campaign last year Democratic strength has re- mained an uncertain quantity. ‘The coalition candidate for governor, Dr. Willlam Moseley Brown of Lexing- ton, opened his campaign last week in Portsmouth and proceeds from there to the Eastern Shore of Virginia today. He is to speak Wednesday, the day after the primary, at Accomas Courthouse, Gladys Winfleld of Fairfax, Mrs, Robert Conner of Cherrydale, Mrs. Sue Brown and Mrs. Arthur Orr of Lyon Park.

Smith in Vir- ginia last Fall, As soon as the primary is over Demo- crats of all factions will be ready to meet the coalitionists in the State cam- paign proper. Preparations for this fight have been proceeding for several months. It is indicated that one line to be taken by the Democratic strate- gians will be an attack upon the coali- tionist rear through an appeal to or- ganization Republicans disgruntled over the acceptance by their party leaders of the ““Cannon candidate,” Dr. Brown. Many old line Republicans are dis- satisfied with the acceptance of Dr. Brown by their leaders, believing that Dr. Brown is fundamentally a mo- crat and that the Cannonites will be awarded most of the patronage if Dr. Brown wins. It is claimed, too, by Democratic leaders, that not a few Re- publican industrialists are satisfied with the progress of Virginia under the Byrd administration and want it continued. The Democrats contend that Dr. Brown is running on a reactionary platform and t Republican business men do not want reaction, and so will not fol- low their leaders in their alllance with Bishop Cannon’s new party.
