But he would! not say immediately whether he will be the candidate He has been mentioned prominently among like-| ly candidates for the last two years of his brether’s term. Other possible candidates in- clude Brailey Odham of Sanford, defeated for the governorship by McCarty in the second primary last year; Acting Gov. Charley E. Johns and retired Army general James A. Van Fleet. Odham told reporters yesterday he “probably will” run for the un- expired term. Johns, state Senate president who became acting gov- ernor at McCarty’s death Sept. 28, said he is willing to run if eligible. There is doubt as to his eligibility because he is a mem- ber of the legislaturc which raised the governor’s salary, The con- stitution says a lawmaker can’t run for an office while he is still a member of a legislature which} increased the salary of that office. Johh McCarty told reporters yes- terday his brother “was elected by the people for a four-year term on a specific program . “He appointed gvod men and women to administrative posts to carry out this program. I feel that when Dan died one of his last bopes was that these men and women would carry on with even | srrears vigor the good fight for a state that he and they were making together. “The gains won must not be lost tow.

Not Been Accepted The engineers for the Key West sewer project aanvunced today that no portion of the system has been accepted by them pending fur- ther tests. The project is only about 30 per cent complete at this time. Jack Cooper, of Ciifford-Cooper Associates said that although re- cent tests have indicated favorable results, they were not conclusive and no portion of the sewer sys- item has been accepted. “Additional tests will be made before acceptance of any portion of the system,” he added. Cooper emphasized that the move is “routine” and that it does, not indicate that the construction is sub-standard, Today's rise was helped along shown to interested persons from sonal solicitation in the city.

Although anticipating trouble, the Communists planned to inter-} view 1,000 prisoners a day.
