20 Legislators From Texas
Campaign for Re-election
In Primary Saturday
By the Associated Press.
AUSTIN. Tex.. July 22.—Come
back efforts of four former Repre
sentatives and the 12-man race for
the post to be relinquished by the
veteran Marvin Jones of Amarillo
high light Democratic congressional
contests in Texas. Most of them
probably will be decided in the first
primary Saturday.
The Democratic nomination al
most always is equivalent to election
In this State.
The four seeking return to Con
gress are Joe H. Eagle of Houston,
O. H. Cross of Waco. W. D. Mc
Farlane of Graham and Thomas L.
Rlanton of Abilene. Their districts
are represented, respectively, by
Albert Thomas of Houston, W. R.
Poage of Waco. Ed Gossett of
Wichita Falls and Clyde L. Garrett
of Eastland.
20 Seek Re-election.
Twenty of the State's 21 members
of the House are seeking re-election.
The only exception is Representa
tive Jones, chairman of the House
Agriculture Committee. Seven are
without opposition.
There are no outstanding issues.
One candidate advocates socialized
medicine, another $45 Federal pen
sions to all over 60 and a third the
Townsend plan.
Admittedly it is no easy task
Under normal conditions to defeat
a texas Representative.
Martin Dies, who is in Texas in
pursuance of his committee's inves
tigation of un-American activities,
has two opponents. They are W. F.
Hill of Port Arthur, linotype opera
tor and labor leader, and James L.
Latimer, Port Arthur building con
tractor.
Most colorful of those essaying
comebacks is Mr. Blanton, a fiery,
hard-hitting speaker, known in
Washington during the 20 years
prior to 1936. in which he repre
sented his district, as "the watchdog
ef the Treasury."
Blanton Cites Record.
Mr. Blanton charges that Mr.
Garrett, who defeated him in 1936,
has not opened his mouth on the
floor of the National House. He
cites his own record as a member
of the subcommittee for War De
partment appropriations, declaring
that if recommendations of the sub
committee had been followed recent
heavy appropriations would have
been unnecessary and "preparedness
would have been going on the past
four years.”
Mr. McFarlane. ardent New Dealer,
represented his district six years
prior to his defeat by Mr. Gossett
in 1938. He had campaigned with
an appeal to re-elect President
Roosevelt.
In the San Antonia district.
Representative Kilday, who ousted
Maury Maverick two years ago, is
opposed by Mrs. Frances Haskell
Edmonson, daughter of the late1
Charles N. Haskell, first Governor
of Oklahoma. Mrs. Edmonson, co
chairman of the State Democratic
Executive Committee, has conducted
a nersonal solicitation campaign.
Representative Patman of Texar
kana has two opponents. State Rep
resentative Howard Smith and R. G.
Waters. State casualty insurance
commissioner.

Football Problem
After a long debate, magistrates
of Glasgow, Scotland, were unable
to decide whether the police can
intervene and arrest players who
fight on the field at a football game.
Teeth in U. S.,
Canadian Hopes
For Short War
By the Associated Prc
VANCOUVER, British Columbia,
July 22—A loyal Canadian mumbled
today his hopes for a short war as
he wondered how long he could hold
out on soup.
He is in Canada—his teeth in the
United States—and the chances of
reunion, he thinks, are pretty slim.
It happened like this: The man
sent his false teeth to the United
States for a repair job shortly be
fore the monetary restrictions were
applied.
Now he is unable to send money
across the border to pay for the
overhaul, and the dental firm can't
see its way to return the teeth free.

In Milk Strike Damages
By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, July 22.—The Shef
field Farms Milk Co .was awarded
$10,000 damages from the Teamsters’
Union (A F. L.) for a one-day strike
of milk wagon drivers last February,
in a decision by Arthur Meyer,
chairman of the New York Milk In
dustry, announced yesterday.
The company had listed damages
of $18,000. Mr. Meyer suggested that
his $10,000 award be voluntarily cut
in half by the company to foster
amicable labor relations.
The Sheffield Co. and the Borden
Co. distribute the majority of the
several million quarts of milk con
sumed every day in the metropoli
tan area.
Mr. Meyer's decision, which under
the agreement by which he was
appointed is final, was to be submit
ted today to the company and the
Sheffield Unit, No. 3, of Local 584 of
the International Brotherhood of
Teamsters, Chauffeurs, Stablemen
and helpers.
