DAVIS WORKING KURD TO ANNEK SIMON'S JOB Virginia Senatorial Fight for Primary Nomination Gets Warmer Every Day. O. 0. P. TRAINS FOR FIGHT 0 Ninth District Is Center of In terest in Congressional Contests. By LOUIS A. MacMAHON. RICHMOND, Va., April 29.? With an interesting United State* Senatorial campaign already under i Vrmy, with Democrats and Repub licans girding their loins for a titanic struggle for mastery in the Ninth district and with spectacular congressional contests being staged in two districts, Virginia again finds herself in the tnroes of a political maelstrom. The senatorial battle, between Claude Swanson, incumbent, and former Governor Westmoreland Davis, is getting warmer every day ?nd bids fair to assume dramatic proportions before the voters make their choice in the August primary. Both candidates have opened head quarters here and selected shrewd and astute managers to handle their campaigns. Davis Busy in Campaign. While Senator Swanson, known as "one of the bin wheels of the ma chine," is standing pat as the or ganization's candidate, his opponent la making considerable Inroads on him by means of an active cumpslgn. Davis has not only announced that in the event of his election he will Join the ''agricultural bloc" in the United States Senate?a subject on which Swanson has thus far kept ?llent?but the former governor has also visited Swanson's home section and made a number of speechc^ there which were well received. It is understood that Davis' strategy will be to concentrate his campaign el forts on the southwestern part of the State where Swanson is the strongest. Davis and his supporters believe he can count on the solid vote of the ?astern seAion of the State. In the meantime, the Republicans of the State, who formed a wonder fully effective organization last fall under the leadership of Col. Henry W. Anderson, G. O. P. candidate for governor, and Joseph L. Crupper, State campaign manager, are plan ning to hold a convention and nomi nate a strong man. It is believed that the lntra-party struggle be tween Davis and Swanson will en gender so much "machine" and "anti-machine" hatred that the O. O. P. standard-bearer, who prob ably will be Colonel Anderson, will have a splendid chance of election In fact, this belief Is so strong that the leading Democratic papers of the State have suggested the election of a Republican as more than a possi bility. Ninth District Race. Chief interest in the selection of Virginia's ten Congressmen next fall centers on the Ninth district, the one that has the largest number of votes. ? nd the only one which is repre sented in Washington by a Repub lican. For a quarter of a century the Democrats have been vainly try ing to "redeem" or wrest this district from the G. O. P.. but with George C. Peery, a Tazewell lawyer, they believe they have the right man to turn the trick this year. Although the Republicans have not yet named their candidate, it is dollars to doughnuts that he will be C. Bancomb Slemp, the incumbent, and that the fur will fly through tne hill country before the smoke of bat tle clears. The l>emoc.rats intend piling every speaker and every penny they can Into the Ninth between now and election day, so as to defeat Slemp. In the Sixth district, at one time represented by Carter Glass, now United States Senator, Judge C. A. Woodrum, of Roanoke, is making it warm for Congressman James P. Woods, who wants to return to Washington next fall. Throughout the Sixth there is considerable Woodrum sentiment and the sup rtern of the former Roanoke Jurist Ileve he has a good chance of vic tory. In the Second district, embracing Norfolk and Tidewater, Va., Josiah D. Hanks, jr., now assistant attor ney general, is waging an active and energetic campaign acminst Con gressman Joseph T. Deal, who sSeks re-election. Hanks has already en tered the lists, paying his primary fee and registering as a candidate, and his friends have a sizable and effective organization at work in his behalf throughout the Second dis trict Hanks has been In Virginia politics for many years and has never lost any battles of ballots in Which he has participated. The Seventh district probably w'.ll be the scene If a spirited battle be tween Congressman Thomas Harri son, Democrat, and a Republican Congressional nominee. In the 1920 election Harrison defeated Col. John Paul, Republican, by 420 votes. Paul charged various and sundry sorts of fraud and filed a contest with the House of Representatives' Privileges and Klections Committee In Wash ington, which has not yet been de cided. Harrison has been holding his neat ?Ince 1920 under the cloud of a pro tested election. It is probable that at their convention In Luray, Page county, the Republicans will again nominate Colonel Paul and start their campaign much earlier than they did two years ago. The vote in the Seventh should be close, with a hnndful of ballots docldlns the win ner. In other districts there have been rumors of Independent or socialist candidates opposing the incumbents for re-election, but it is believed that most of those now holding seats lr the Canltol at Washington will be returned. TO INCOPORATE SUBURB.

Highland 1 Park was originally Southwest "H" Village of the Dupont do Nemoura Powder Company. J 11 BONNET IN RlNG MISS EMMA SCOTT, Of Spencer, W.

April 29.?Bitter warfare is being waged between the peanut cleaners of Nansemond county, the center of Virginia's peanut belt, and the Suffolk Peanut Exchange. Both aides i - e hurling numerous charges, including breach of faith, ind both promise to fight "to the death." Several million aires are active in the struggle, which fast is assuming titanic pro portions and may involve the Fed eral Government. One of the features of the fight which has most enraged the clean ers is the fact that the exchange has received a $1,000,000 loan from the War Finance Corporation. Thi3 loan, which was negotiated last fall, has been the subject of denunciation by members of the cleaners' asso ciation, who declare the exchange is taking unfair advantage by com peting with them on Government funds. King Sends Protest. John King, one of the leading mem bers of the cleaners' association, wrote the War Finance Corporation recently, protesting against the ex change's use of the loa'i. He re ceived a reply which was not satis factory, and wrote a second letter, j to which he has recelveed no reply, j Mr. King has declined to make this | correspondence public. Ten thousand peanut growers, sev- j eral thousand employers of the pea nut cleaning plants, hundreds of country merchants and several banks j are directly interested in the out- | come of the )>attle between the ex- i change and the leaner*. Headquar- I ters for the opposing factions are in ; Suffolk. Two periodicals devoted ex 1 clusively to the peanut Industry are j published In Suffolk. The Suffolk banks are vitally interested. There fore, Suffolk Is talking of nothing else but the controversy which has torn at the very roots of the peanut Industry in Virginia and North Caro lina. So many charges and counter charges have been made by the clean ers and the exchange, both In print and in utterances on the streets, that ; it is practically Impossible for a visitor to obtain an unbiased view oft the situation. Everyt>ody In Suffolk is aligned with one or the other side. There la"no middle ground. Monopoly Charge Denied. The question seems to have boiled itself down to whether a co-opera- i tlve marketing organization, such as the exchange Is. can co-exist with private interests. Thomas H. Bird song, general ma-r.ager, thinks It can. "Cleaning plants can be con structed at so little cost," he said last week, "that it would be Impos sible to monopolize the peanut clean ing and marketing industry unless every paanuf grower were In one combination. Even If all qleaning plants should be controlled by one organization, there is nothing to pre vent an outsider from building an other and dealing with the farmers. Mr. Ulrdsong admitted that the peanut situation was not all that could be expected, but expressed confidence that the exchange (ould weather the storm. On the other hand, the cleaners are confident that they will win out. They have reconciled themselves to losses this yew, und openly 'an nounce that they will undersell the exchange In the market*, regardless of what losses they may suffer. "We would have no objection to the l'eanut Growers' Exchange oper ating as a co-operative marketing organization, for the purpose of pool ing the farmers' products." one cleaner said. "In many ways It would be more convenient for all concerned If the cleaners dealt with the exchange, to which all the farm ers would send their peanuts.

Mr. Blrdsong expressed himself as Indignant at the cleaners' fight on the War Finance loan. He termed the letters as an underhand attack. The War Finance Corporation has refused to munke any statement for publication. Chairman Meyer savs "there are no developments with re gard to th^ loan so far as the cor istratlon Is < oncerned. and there Is nothing the corporation has to my about the subject." Rut it is known that the cor|>oratlon Is taking a k?en Interest In the outcome of the con troversy. There the situation stands.

It was a happy scene which was enacted at the Gammon home, when the boy and his parents, who had almoat given him up as irrevocably lost to them, greeted each other once more, after having been so long parted. The only minor note In the happiness was the disappointment of Sheriff Sydnor over the fact that Annentrout had been allowed to slip through the arm of the law by the hasty action of the mayor of Love land, Ohio, where he was arrested, in releaaing Armentrout before the sheriff arrived.

Interest in Senatorship Over shadows All Other Con gressional Contests. ANNAPOLIS, April There are Indications that all of Maryland's representative* in Congress will seek and be accorded reenomlnatlons, though in most cases there is uncer tainty as to the nominee of the op position party. In fact, interest in the primary is not keen, so far as the nominations for the House of Representatives are concerned, attention being largely centered upon the fight for the United States Senate. Republicans have not determined upon the prob able successor to Senator Joseph I. France, but an unprejudiced opinion is that a man will be brought out in time and will overwhelm the Incum bent's chances of renomination. David J. Lewis, formerly Repre sentative from the Sixth district, who was defeated In the former campaign by France, has announced his can didacy. State leaders will not accept Lewis, owing largely to his rather "dry" -views and are undecided be tween William P. Norrls, president of the State senate, and William P. Coady. former Representative, who was defeated in the Third district two years ago by John Philip Hill. The Incumbent members of the House of Representatives are: First district, Allan P. Goldsbor ough, Democrat; Second district, Al bert A. Blakeny, Republican; Third district, John Phillip Hill, Repub lican; Fourth district, J. Charles Llnthicum, Democrat; Fifth district, Sydney E. Mudd, Republican; Sixth district, Frederick N. Zlhlman, Re publican. In the Third district. Hill may again be opposed by Coady if the latter docs not run in the Senatorial primary, while Walter B. Dorsey, living near Annapolis, Is willing to accept the Democratic nomination against Mudd. Andrew J. ("Cy") Cummings. of Montgomery, and State Senator Charles W. Mish have been men tioned for the Democratic nomina tion in the Sixth. 15-YearwOld Boy Jailed For Shooting Father PRINCETON, W. Va., April 29.?
