Johnson berated the New York primary law at a big mass meeting of Middlesex County Repub licans to-night, Insisting that his defeat on Tuesday was due to the control of New York State politics by party ma chines. The primary system Is a "left handed way of voting," he said, when tho bosses pick the candidates.- In States where the people were allowed to express their opinions freely, the Sen ator said he was confident of winning. Senator Johnson attacked tho League of Nations and Democratic extrava gance, and referred to President Wilson as "the greatest autocrat the United States ever knew." He closed his speech with an attack upon Herber Hoover's attitude toward the League of Nations. .

Into Primary Uetiirns Fail to Cut Down Plurality Over Ocn. Wood. Bptcinl to The Scn and New Yobk Ilr.a!.p. Detroit, April 7. With 1,327 of Michigan's 2,121 precincts reported from Monday's Presidential preference pri mary Senator HIra.ni Johnson's plural ity in the State is well over the 43,000 mark. 'On thi Democratic ticket Herbert Hoover, with only a three duyj cam rnlgn, tjaa t lead of almost 5,000 o'er his nearest competitor, Gov. Kdwards of New Jersey, the up-State vote ' for Hoover wiping out the large Wayne county plurality given to the New Jcr soy "wet"' candidate. t Belated returns from tlio SUto have failed to cut down the big Johnson lend in Detroit and Wayne county. In the 1,827 precincts the vote was: Republican Johnson, 143,524; Wood. 96,325: Low den, 52,319; Hoover, 49,461. Demo craticHoover, 22,752 ; Edwards, 17.293. The precincts not yet heard from are In outlying districts, and It the voting has been proportionately as light as In the larger districts the aggregate would not exceed a few thousand, not enough to affect the existing pluralities. Tho State's total-Republican vote was In excess of that registered In the 1316 general election and represented u larger percentage of the total. Tho bitter fight between Senator John son and Major-Gen. Leonard Wood has helped Hoover's chances materially In the coming Chicago convention in the opinion of Elbert H. Fowler, temporary chairman of the Michigan Hoover Re publican Club. He said : "Johnson's victory over Wood has definitely eliminated tho latter as con tender for the support of delegates whose constituencies arc opposed to tho spending of largo sums of money in elec tions. On the other hand Johnson can not hope for strong support on his anti League of Nations stand. Hoover will gain strength as the weakness of both Wood and Johnson becomes Upparent to the delegates."

Although the Senator must go West at the nd of this week, ho la hoping to get back to New Jersey before, pri mary day to put a final touch on his campaign there. In the meantlmo Angus McSween. hla Hastem manager, has mapped out an Intensive campaign on behalf of the California Senator. The Senator beforo going to New nrunswlck, N. J., to speak last night vould make no extended comment on thn fact that tho delegatc.4 running on u Johnson pledge were snowed under In this State Tuesday. "Thero la no particular nigntflcanco to bo attached to our lack of success in this State," said Mr. McSween. "In the first place we had little chance properly to publicize our candidate. We had no funds, while our opponents had tho back ing of a powerful organization, which had tho election machinery at their dis posal, "If tljcro had been a preferential pri mary and Senator Johnson's name had been on the ballot, things would have been different and thero would have been a great' popular demonstration of his strength.

Mr. McSween said It would e unwise for him to make public tho names of thebO men. To-night Senator Johnson speaks In Passaic and Patterson, to-morrow night in Jersey City and Hobokcn and on Saturday starts for Nebraska, Ha hopes to be able to make a drive In Indiana before returning to New Jersey. None of the Wood managers could be seen yesterday. On Tuesday It was said Representative Norman J. Gould had gone to Washington. Yesterday he was Eeen in the Imperial, but later It was stated that he had Just "left for Washington." Now that the Chicago delegates are actually chosen there will bo much quiet work done to land their votes on he first ballot In the national convention.
