THE EVENING TAR, WASHINGTON. D. C. FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1930. HOUSE HARD HT | INWENBERS 0SS Ten Representatives Not Ex-! pected to Return—Five Senators Lose Races. By the Asscciated Press. Although proportionately less hard hit than the Senate by this year's party primaries, the House appeared today to have lost through verdict of the voters #o0 far five more members than its com- panion chamber. While five Senators were refused re- nomination, seven Representatives have been eliminated definitely and three | more appear slated to go into unsought retirement. Cramton Believed Loser. An official canvass of the vote in a questioned county showed Representa- tive Louls C. Cramton, Republican dry leader of Michigan, an almost certain loser to an opponent who favors a referendum _on prohibiiton. The dean of the all-Democratic Georgia delega- tion, Thomas H. Bell, seemed hope- lessly behind in his district with only one county to be heard from. Repre- sentative James O'Connor of New Orleans has announced he will contest the Democratic primary vote which spelled his defeat. Those definitely beaten for renom- ination in the primaries held so far in- clude: Willis J. Sears, Nebraska: W. W. Chalmers, Ohio; Grant M. Hudson, Michigan, and John Franklin Miller, ‘Washington, Republicans, and John C. Box, Texi Joseph Whitehead of Virginia, and J. Zad Spearing of Louisiana, Democrats. Miller and Hudson. both pronounced drys, lost to wets in Wednesday's voting. Miller was elected to the Sixty-first Congress and has served continuously since. Hudson, former superintendent of the Michigan Anti-Saloon League, has been in Congress since 1922, Wet Wins in Ohio. Chalmers, from the ninth Ohio dis- trict, was also dispossessed of his party’s nomination by a man classified as a wet—Wilbur M. White. ‘The predominant liquor issue did not figure perceptibly in the defeat of Box in the second Texas district by Martin Dies on July 26, nor the overthrow of Sears in the second Nebraska district by H. Malcolm Baldridge and of White- head in the fifth Virginia district by Thomas H. Burch. It was not a Louisiana or Georgia issue. LOSER TO CONTEST LOUISIANA VOTING Representative 0'Conner Will Take Action—Huey P. Long De- cided Winner. NEW ORLEANS, September 12 (). ~—Representative James O'Connor an- nounced yesterday he would contest the congressional vote in the first district in Tuesday’s Democratic primary. ‘The complete unofficial vote showed State Senator Joseph O. Fernandez the winner by 1,845 out of a total vote of 49,071, In the race for the nomination for the United States Senate, almost com- plete unofficial returns gave Gov. Huey P. Long a majority of 38810 over Senator Joseph E. Ransdell. With only five precincts missing the vote stood, Long, 151,513; Ransdell, 112,703, Representative J. Zach Spearing con- gratulated Paul Maloney, New Orleans business man, who defeated him in the | second district by approximately 20,000 votes. The incumbent, Representative Numa Montet, defeated Clarence J. Bourg in the third district by around 5,000 votes. $32,500 FOR STAMP Rare Poster Is Purchased by Utica Collector. UTICA, N. Y., (®).—The world’s rar- est stamp and probably one of the most valuable, is owned by Arthur Hind of Utica, who paid $32,500 for it. Tt is the only known specimen of this stamp, a one-cent issue of British Guiana, dated 1856. The stamp supply in British Guiana ran out that year and with the aid of a local printer a temporary stamp was designed and printed there. Sixty years later one remained. It was bought by a German count, whose valuable collection was seized by the French during the war. Sale of that collection netted France $3,000,000 and at that time Hind bought the Guiana stamp, \ et A Surbiton, England, will place its swimming pool, library and fire station in the same building.

Fheae Netenal 0650, save HARRISON ATTACKS 6.0P IN BROADCAST Charges Hoover Administra- tion With Broken Prom- ises and Failure. ‘The Republican administration “is | responsible in large part for the de- plorable state of affairs in this country, as reflected in long and crowded bread lines, closed factories, deserted farms and lost fortunes,” Senator Pat Harri- son, spokesman for the Democratic party, declared in a Nation-wide radio | speech last night. The Mississippi Senator spoke over the Columbia Broadcosting System network. Charges Broken Promises. Senator Harrison charged the Hoover administration with ‘“broken promises and the inauguration of narrow, selfish and unwise policies.” He said that it had failed absolutely in its promise to the farmers of the country to bring about adequate farm aid legislation. He attacked the new Republican tariff law as a burden upon all the people and a blow at American foreign trade. Particularly did the Democratic Sen- ator score President Hoover and his supporters in the last campaign for their pledges of “prosperity.” He said: “I hold in my hand a spurious coin. | It was issued by the Republican Na- tional Committee and distributed throughout the country during the last campaign. On one side is engraved “Hoover Lucky Pocket Piece’ and on the | _— other ‘Good for Four Years of Pros-| perity.’ . No more is there music in its| sound. It falls fat because these coins, | as symbols of Republican prosperity, | have turned out to be the crudest kind | of counterfeits. | Says Prosperity Claims Dead. | “Will they say that prosperity is still here? No! Whatever else may be said | of them, they are not so foolish as to make that assertion. Will they say that | the present situation is but wmponry| and that this administration has not| had time to work out the problem? Then, I cite the fact that present con- ‘ ditions began more than 15 months ago | and have become more acute with each passing day. Loose statements by the | President and his cheer leaders, from Mr. Mellon down, prophesying improved business conditions and proclaiming the | worst is over, have become so common that long since Americzn business has ceased to pay the slightest attention to them “Will they say that this administra- tion is blameless? Senator Fess, the | new-fledged chairman of the Ri puhll-‘ can National Committee, is the only one | thus far to have the audacity even to| suggest it. Who is to be blamed if not | the Republican party? Is it not in con- trol of the presidency, the Congress and every branch of the National Govern- | ment? Cites Bank Failures. “What has happened? During the‘ first six months of this year there have een 13 more bank failures in the United | States than there were in the 12 months | of last year, and the proportion of State | bank failures much greater. In one| State alone there were during the first six months of this year 53 National and State bank failures. During this year there have been more losses incurred from foreclosures than ever recorded in | any similar period in the history of the country. Unemployment, even in the| estimate of agents and bureaus of the | administration, has run as high as 7,000,000 people, and 63 wage reductions | are reported in American industry in August by the Labor Bureau, Inc., which | further declares that factory payrolls fell off 9 per cent from June to July, and_predicts that “hundreds of thou- sands or even millions will ve to be fed as an alternative to lite starva- tion through the Winter months.” A deplorable picture is presented. Our exports in July fell off over $133,- 000,000 dollars, as compared to July of last year. Our imports during the same period fell off over $134,000,000. Our balance of trade shrunk $357,000,000 during the first four months of this year, as compared to the first four months of last year. Farms have been deserted, factories have been idle, mer- cantile stores have been closed, com- | mercial houses have been forced into bankruptcy, and our whole economic system disrupted. Shanghai, China, is to be completely | equipped with automatic telephones by | the end of next year, RESCUE OF TRAPPED D IVER e Capt. N. A.

PROSPERITY SEEN BY SEATORSHOD Legislator Not Disturbed by Hoover Criticism on Re- turn From Hawaii. By the Associated Press. SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, September 12—Business and industry are swing- ing upward along the Pacific Coast and indications are plentiful that times are getting better in the East, Senator Reed Smoot of Utah said upon his return home from the Hawaiian Islands yes- terday. ‘The veteran Utah Senator and his bride, the former Mrs. Alice Taylor Sheets, Salt Lake City church and so- clety woman, spent two months in the islands and Mr. Smoot said his health was improved. He went to Hawaii to rest following months of work on the Smoot-Hawley tariff bill, which was passed by the last Congress. He was not disturbed at what he called the “conspiracy on the part of the Democratic National Committee and its publicity department to dis- credit President Hoover.” WALES’ FAVORITE DRINK IS POPULAR COCKTAIL Prince’s Last Visit to Le Touquet Inspires “the Prince’s Smile,” as Recipe Is Called.

DETROIT, September 12.—Official count of the vote in three of the six counties in the seventh congressional | district today reduced to 93 the lead | of Jesse P. Wolcott, a wet, over Repre sentative Louis C. Cramton, House dry leader, in their race for the Republican | nomination | The official count in Macomb, Tuscola | and Huron Counties, taken with com- | plete unofficial returns from Sanilac, | Lapeer and St. Clair Counties, gave | Wolcott 25,757 and Cramton 25,664. | First unofficial reports had given Cram- | ton a lead of 75, and corrections yes- | terday put Wolcott 119 ahead. From his home at Lapeer, Repre- sentative Cramton said that he will make no statement on the race until the official canvass is complete, Groesbeck to Ask Recount. Alex J. Groesbeck, who was defeated for the Republican nomination for Gov- ernor by Wilber M. Brucker, attorney general, in Tuesday's primary election, announced today that he will file a pe- tition asking for a recount of the vote in all counties of the State _Groesbeck, who has served three | times as Governor of Michigan, charged that the Brucker forces, which had the support of Gov. Fred W. Green, were responsible for ‘the candidacy of Ed- ward J. Jeffries, Detroit municipal judge, the third man in the guberna- torial race, the purpose being to split Groesbeck. He also charged that misleading cam- pajgn literature was sent out by the Brucker forces in the closing days of was poured into a number of counties by his opponent during the last days of the campaign. At the same time, the Groesbeck statement continued, “They began falsely charging Mr. Cady (Burt D. Cady) of my committee with what they were doing themselves.” He charged that one metropolitan dally failed to publish a denial of Cady tha excessive campaign funds were spent. Warned Against Detroit. Groesbeck’s statement charged that “the Green-Brucker outfit flooded the up-State counties with circulars and mail matter warning them against a Wayne County (Detroit) candidate on the pretext that according to the last census Wayne County would be entitled to more representation in the Legisla- ture and of course should not have i The alleged circulation of this propa- ganda, Groesbeck said, was “timed for the last few hours before the primary, CRAMTON TRAILING. !

Wood Defeats Veteran Dean of State’s Delegation. By the Associated Press. ATLANTA, Ga. Sepember 12.—With Richard B. Russell, jr. leading four other gubernatorial candidates with a total of 140 unit votes, as compared with 124 for his nearest opponent, chief interest in Wednesday’s Democratic primary switched today to the race for controller general and a congressional contest. Homer C. Parker, adjutant general of Georgia, apparently had won th> nomination as controller general by a close margin, after a_spirited contest with W. B. Harrison, the incumbent. Wood Defeats Bell. Returns from 18 out of 19 counties in the ninth congressional district in- dicated that Judge John Stephens Wood of Canton had defeated Representative Thomas M. Bell of Gainesville, long known as the dean of the Georgia delegation in Washington. These returns gave Wood a unit vote of 24, as compared with 18 for Bell. The county from which returns are missing has two unit votes. Senator William J. Harris won the unit votes of every county in Georgia except_one in his contest with former John M. Slaton. Ramspeck Easy Winner. Representative Robert C. W. Rams- peck carried every county in the fifth congressional district over his opponent, Allen M. Pierce. Representative W. C. Lankford of the eleventh congressional district appeared to have enjoyed a similar_fortune in_his race with Dr. A. D. Williams of Folkston. Nine other congressional representa- tives were unopposed for nomination. In the gubernatorial contest Russell and George H. Carswell will engage in a run off primary October 1, Russell lacking the majority of unit votes re- quired for nomination. too late for us to overcome or even explain.” The former declared that he always treated the rural districts of the State airly and that “every fair minded voter will revolt against trying to raise the prejudice of the _country districts against the City of Detroit.” Pointing out that more than 800,000 votes were cast in the race in 3317 precincts, Mr. Groesbeck declared that the chance for “irregularities, mistakes and errors” is quite extensive. Brucker’s lead over Groesbeck on the final tabulation of the State's vote by the Associated Press was 4,747. Only one small up-State precinct was missing from this tabulation. Brucker had 369,782, and Groesbeck, 365,035, while Judge Jeffries’ total was 100,585. A.
