Gov. Stark Will Run
For U. S. Senate 'If
People Want Me'
Pendergast Machine
Not to Effect Election,
Executive Declares
»r the Associated Press. |
NEW YORK, Aug. 9 —Gov. Lloya
C. Stark of Missouri said today ne
would be a candidate for the United
8tates Senate next year “if the peo
ple of Missouri want me."
•‘I feel it my duty to run if tne
people of my State want me to,” the 1
Governor said.
He predicted that the political ;
machine of Tom Pendergast, lormer !
Democratic boss of Kansas City,
would have little effect on the out
come of the 1940 election in Mis
souri. when all State officers are to
be elected.
"I don't want to discuss Tom Pen
dergast.” Gov. Stark said during an
Interview at the Hotel Astor, "be
cause he is in a very embarrassing
position.”
Pendergast is serving a sentence
In Leavenworth for income tax eva
sion.
The Governor said emphatically
he would not support the present
Senator from Missouri, Harry s.
Truman, in the coming campaign.
Reorganization of the Kansas City
Police Department under the guid
ance of J. Edgar Hoover, director
of the Federal Bureau of Investiga
tion, and the management of the
police by an independent board of
commisisoners appointed by tne
Governor, has caused gangsters and
racketters to leave the city "like rats
from a sinking ship.” he said.
The Governor came here with his
wife and two children to dedicate
the Missouri Building at the New
York World’s Fair tomorrow.
H. M. Cochran, Diplomat,
May Run Stabilization Fund
H. Merle Cochran, first secretary
Of the American Embassy in Paris,
was understood today to be in line ,
for appointment as director of the
Treasury’s $2,000,000,000 stabilization
fund.
He would succeed Archie Loch
head, who is reported planning to
resign this fall to join a financial
organization in New York.
Mr. Cochran, who has handled
the Treasury's negotiations with the
French Government since 1932, re
cently was ordered home for duty
at the State Department.
Entering the consular service as
a career officer in 1914. Mr. Cochran
later was placed in charge of con
sular commercial work in Paris. In
1930 he was transferred to Basle,
headquarters of the Bank of Inter
national Settlements. He returned
to Paris in 1932 and played an im
portant role in completing the
Franco-British-United States tripar
tite monetary agreement.
It is understood H. Freeman Mat- !
thews will take over Treasury work
in the Paris Embassy, replacing Mr.
Cochran.
Murphy Urges Aides
To 'Forget' Politics
Attorney General Murphy “some
times thinks’’ that there should be i
a law to prevent attorneys and other
Justice Department officials from
becoming candidates for elective
offices until “a long time’’ after their
governmental connection has ended.
His views were expressed in a
brief talk this morning to members
of the department staff when Mat- i
thew F. McGuire was sworn in as
Special Assistant Attorney General. j
Mr. Murphy, in presenting Mr. Me- !
Guire's commission, urged all of his '
aids to “forget’’ any political aspira
tions and repeated that he himself
cherished none.
Mr. McGuire is taking over a new
position in which he will act as |
liaison officer between the Attorney j
General and Congress and other
agencies of the Government and willi
handle also confidential, legal and
administrative matters. The new
special assistant previously had been
serving as assistant to the Attorney
General. In the latter position he
is succeeded by Edward G. Kemp.
wrho took oath yesterday.

wards and acting with the aid of
his father, Raymond O. Huer, 1233

tractive nuisance.”
