DEMOCRATS DRAW RADICAL FACTIONS Washington Primary Results in New Alignments in Parties in State. BY JAMES DE K. BROWN. Specicl Dispatch to The Star. SEATTLE, Wash., September 17.—An avalanche of ultra-prograssive radical votes swept over this State last Tues- Jay. wrested the control of the party BY V. Y. DALLMAN. SPRINGFIELD, 1ll., September 17. Gov_ Roosevelt continues to “get the breaks” in Il'inois. The confidence among democrats is less significant, however, than the consternation among organization Republicans who are ex- pressing fear as to the outcome, not only relative to the head of the ticket machinery from the old line Demo- crats, nominated radical candidates for | pubiic office and threw the Bourbon | stalwarts into the ciscard. Redical voters deserted the Republi- can party, where for years they have | been a disturbing element. As a result the primary vote in the Democratic | party was virtually as large as the Re- publican Hartley Is Defeated. With the radical elements out of their party, the Republicans took advantage of the iation and cleaned house, | pusting Gov. Roland H. Hartley, seek- | ing a third term. a disturbing element | for the last eight vears, and restored | as their nominee for Congress in the | first district John F. Miller, former but in the senatorial and congres:ional elections in this State, which is especially coveted because its 29 elec- toral votes are exceeded only by the States of New York and Pennsylvania. As in other States thrcughout the Central West, the Roosevelt forces are steamed up to greater confidence by the | Democratic victory in Maine and by Rooscvelt's swing around the circle | through the agricultural areas. Farmers in Illincis say that few votes | are changed by the verbal barrage laid | down by bcth sides of the great con- troversy, but they seem to yearn for the old-fashioned speaking campaign. Farm leaders express approval of Gov. Roosevelt's denunciation of “Farm Board speculative operations,” his com- member, who two yvears ago was swept | out of the race by Ralph A. Horr. Horr | was relegated to the discard. Senator Wesley L. Jones won by a 2-to-1 vote over Judge Adam Beeler. The Demo- | crats nominated as his opponent Homer | T._Bone. Lieut. Gov. John A. Gellatly was nominated for Governor by the Re- publicans, while the race between Clar- ence D. Martin and W. H. Pemberton of the Democrats was close, Martin | winnirg. Regular Democrats are not prepared | vo accept the radical leadership foisted | upon them by the primaries, and this will be felt in the coming presidential fights. It may aid the Hoover cam- paign. _Republican leaders say, how- | ever, they do not expect any large defections of old line Democrats to the Republican ticket in the national cam- paign. but do feel that if the radical element drives too heavy in the Demo- | cratic saddle there will be a split and the Hoover-Curtis ticket will benefit. | Others Renominated. All Washington members of Congress were renominated excepting Horr, Al- bert Johnson, in the third; Lindley H. Hay second; John W. Summers, fourth, and Sam B. Hill, Democrat, in the fifth, had little trouble to win| nominations. | The Democrats in the first district nominated a prominent active radical, Marion Zioncheck. He will find sled- | jing hard, as the old line party fol- lowers are bolting % The presidential situation is looking better from the Republican standpoint. | The invasion of the Democrats by the | radicals is a big aid to the Repub- licans. How strong an aid it will be will rest with the attitude of the Demo- cratic nominees on national questions. | As all are virtually individu will carry on in the future past. as such, there is a strong possibil- ity they will drive into the Republican ranks the old conservative Democrats next November. This is what the Re- publican leaders are playin mitments relative to tariff readjust- ment to favor agriculture and his sug- gestions about lower taxes and the cutting of Government costs. Pleasing to Farmer. While these arguments may be| platitudinous, they are pleasing to the | ear of the farmer. As a well-known | repub’ican leader in this area suggested: | “We are in a dilemma how to ra-ct the | farm situation when the f= cannot | pay his taxes, his farm is mortgaged | and he is willing to vote to bring about a change for better or worse.” Unprejudiced observers who are cog- | nizant of the desperation am-ng the | farmers :ay the Hoover administration is placed at a great disadvantage. President Hoover is not held blameless for the depression while being charged with failure to redeem pledges made in | 1928. It is conceded even in Republican circles that there is no practical method of meeting_this situation between now and next November.

Roosevelt Continues to “Get Breaks™ as Republicans in State Express Fear. fear of overconfidence among Dem- ocratic leaders. There is greater ac- tivity all along the line with reports coming from Republican national head- quarters in Chicago that the Hoover administration forces have only begun their fight to capture this State. They will have powerful newspaper support in Cook County where half of the pop- ulation of the State resides. A very delicate situation threatens in Chicago because of growing complications be- tween the rival candidacies for Govern- or, Senator and President. Two of the strongest Chicago newspapers will sup- port Hoover for President and Senator Republican, for re- | election, but will support Judge Henry Horner of Chicago, Democratic_candi- date for Governor.

The Hoover organization is suspi- clous of the Small organization headed by National Committeeman Frank L. Smith and aided by former Mayor Willam Ha'e Thcmpson of Chicago. Some of the Roosevelt lieutenants are fearful of betrayal, as between certain groups, organization and otherwise, which are supporting Hoover, Repub- lican, for President and Horner, the Democratic organization candidate, for | Governor. The arrival of Mayor Anton J. Cer- mak of Chicago, Democratic national committeeman, from Europe, means | the opening of new hostilities in the Cook County hinted above. Meanwhile, Representative Willlam H. Dieterich, Beardstown, Democratic candidate for United States Senator, is carrying on a vigorous campaign.

With the ex-| ception of three State officers all ap- pointive officers must be confirmed by the Executive Council, so that Gov.| Brann will go into office with little | voice in the distribution of patronage.

Democratic and Re- publican candidates, respectively, for United States Senator, has resulted in a challenge to joint debate on their relative positions on prohibition, though both are radically wet, which is to be staged before the City Club of Cleve- land. but which is likely to have many other sessions in various parts of th» State, and to constitute really one of the principal features of the State campaign. State Campaign Chairman Charles H. Lewis of the Republican organization has issued a statement denying that he intends to resign because of a dis- position of Ingalls to direct the work of the campaign frincipally to the sup- port of his own candidacy.

BATES Star BURLINGTON, Vt., September 17.— Heartened by the Republicen upset in ! | Maine last Monday, Vermont Democrats | expect to make a big cut in the usual | Republican majority in November. | Some cven talk of carrying the State | for Roosevelt and at the same time | | elect their candidates for Governor, | United States Senator and Representa- | tive in Congress. In-a State which has | | been consistently Republican since the | Civil War and which was one of the | two States that stood by President | | Taft in 1912, such an overturn would | seem impossible. However, there are some conditions | in connection with the primary elec- | tion on Tuesday which might contrib- | ute to that result. The Democrats | were united and had but one candidate | for each office. The Republicans, on the other hand, were compelled to| | choose between two or more candidates | for all the principal offices except United States Senator, and the gove! norship campaign between Gov. Stanl | C. Wilson and W. Arthur Simpson was | marked by considerable bitterness, which may not be forgotten when the voters next go to the polls in November. } While United States Senator Porter H. Dale had no Republican opposition | in the primary he will face one of the | most popular and energetic- Demdcrats |in the State at the November election. | His opponent will be Fred C. Martin of | Bennington, a former Democratic candi- date for Governor. The Democratic nominee for Governor this year is James | P. Leamy of West Rutland—also a vote- | getter. "The total vote for the Demo- cratic candidates at the primary on| Tuesday is no indication of what may | be expected in November, because, in | the absence of any contests in the party ticket, there was not the incentive to vote that will exist two months hence.
