Hopes For Tennis
Honor In England
Whntoledon. England. June 29 <AP>
—America's hopes for victory in the
men’s singles of the classic Wimble
don tennis tourney today rested solely
on the slim shoulders of her nation
al champion. Ellsworth Vines, Jr.
The Californian marched Into the
semi-final rounds as a n avalanche of
international tennis power swept two
of his fellow country men out of the
singles play and decimated the Ameri
can ranks in the mixed doubles.
One disaster after another bowled
the Americans over after Vines, in the
simplest fashion, opened the day aus
piciously with a straight set victory
over Enrique Maier, Spanish cham
pion. 6-2, 63. 6-2.
Townsville Wins

Outcome of Senate Fight
Is Amittedly Uncertain
(Continued on Page Three.)
that Reynolds would be high man, and
that thees are now going to vote
for Morrison. The Morrison forces also
maintain that within the past two
weeks the Democrats of the State
have come to realize that there are
more important issus involved in the
contest for the Senatorial nomination
than prohibition repeal—the central
plank and almost the only plank in
the Reynolds platform.
Yet the Reynolds supporters are
growing more confident daily that
Reynolds will again ge a larger vote
than Morrison in the primary Satur
day and John Bright Hill, State man
ager for Reynolds, insists that his
majority will be at least 50,000, if not
more.
The Reynolds managers point to
the fact in spite of the frantic
efforts made" ty the Morrison cam
paign organization to line up the wo
men of the State for Morrison, that
more and more are coming into the
Reynolds camp. Yesterday Mrs. Edwin
C. Gregory, of Salisbury, daughter of
the lase Senator Lee S. Overman,
whom Reynolds opposed for the sena
torial nominaion six years ago. ar
rived here to take charge of the wo
men’s division in the Reynolds Head
quarters here. It is claimed by the
Reynolds forces here that his prohibi
tion repeal platform is appealing to
the women as much as the men and
tha many more influential women are
working for him than for Morrison.
The betting odds here are two to
one on Reynolds with plenty of Rey
nolds money in evidence but compara
tively few takers. Many Morrison sup
porters here who admit they are going
to vote for Morrison and want him
to win admit they do not care to
risk any money on the outcome.
There are some indications, how
ever, that tend to show a much bettei
outlook for Morrison than a week
ago. It is conceded that the talk that
has been going the rounds concerning
a link-up beween the Fountain and
Reynolds forces has been doing Rey
nols no good, especially tn the Pied
mont and western part of the State
where Reynolds has a large following
and Fountain a very small following
The total annual cost of medical
care in the country is estimated at
some 13,000.000,000.

EHRINGHAUS WILL
TAKE NO CHANCES
(Continued from Pag* On#.)
that Fountain may let out of his bag
at the last moment and want to pile
up such an impressive majority for
Ehringhaus that it will settle mat
ters for good.
There is no denying the fact that
Fountain and his managers have been
working he past two weeks as they
have never worked before, and that
they are making desperate efforts not
only to hold together the vote Foun
tain received in the first primary, but
to gain as many additional votes as
possible. They have also realized that
whatever new votes were to be gain
ed must come from those who voted
for A. J. Maxwell ln the first primary.
So Fountain has appropriated two of
Maxwell s platform planks with which
to mend his own scaffolding. These
two planks are the ones in favor of
State rental of textbooks and in op
position to a general sales tax. He is
also making a desperate effort to con
vince the people of the State that he
is In favor of the present road law
and maintenance of all county high
ways by the State, although he bit
terly fought this law in the 1931 Gen
eral Assembly and has been scath
ing in his denunciation of the present
State Highway Commission and its
chairman, E. B. Jeffress.
Founain has undoubtedly made
some gains during the past two weeks
as the result of his absorption of the
most popular planks in Maxwell’s
platform and his change in front to
wards the present highway law. But
it is agreed that most of these gains
have been confined to those eastern
counties in which Fountain was al
ready strong and that his new cam
paign tactics have been almost inef
fectual in most of the Piedmont and
western counties. Those who have
been through many of the Piedmont
and western counties within the past
week report that Fountain has lost
heavily in this section, largely because
of the charge made by his manager
that there were at leaat 25,000 fraud
ulent votes cast in these counties in
the first primary. His advocay of rent
ed textbooks has also made very little
Impression, since tor hia campaign be
fore the first pH miry, Vountaln point
ed out that there are laws on the
statute books now permitting any
county or district to buy school books
and rent them to the school children,
and that hence no special legislation
Is needed to bring about rented text
books.
Fountain’s new stand with regard
to the sales tax Is also not proving
very convincing. For while it is a fact
that during the 1931 general assembly
Fountain finally admitted, when pres
sed to declare his stand, that of the
two forms of sales tax he preferred
the luxury to the general sales tax,
It was generally believed then that
Fountain would have accepted either
the general or luxury tax could either
have been enacted. It is an open secret
that Fountain, as Lieutenant Gover
nor and presiding over the senate,
used all the influence he had to secure
the enactment of the Hinsdale luxury
tax bill, which in addition to taxing
‘obacco and cigarettes, taxed some 50
other articles, including automobiles,
trucks, bank checks, candy, peanuts
and soft drinks, just as does the pre
sent Federal sales tax. This Is regard
ed as one reason why Senator John
Hinsdale of Wake county is now one
of the Fountain’s chief supporters.
Those who know the facts also re
gard as ridiculous his claims that
there is a great political ‘'machine"
here, composed of the State depart
ment heads and employes and domi
nated by Governor O. Max Gardner,
working for the nomination of Ehring
haus. For the facts are that 75 per
cent of the State department heads
and State employes are supporting
Fountain, largely because he has let
it be whispered about that he favors
the restoration of all salary cuts and
the repeal of the Budget Act, along
with the abolition of the Personnel
Division, which is the States most
hated department among State em
ployes. because it passes on salaries.
But the Ehringhaus forces are tak
ing no chances. They are prepared.

storm of controversy over the out
right wet move for pledging the party
to repeal, offered against the Roose
velt leaders' declaration for a repeal
submission plank.
Otherwise, the new Democratic plat
form was ready for convention rati
fication. It was the shortest state
ment of policy in modern political
history—between 1.200 and 1.400 words
Briefer* it cal!j. lor a minimum
slash of 25 percent in Federal expen
ditures, amounting to a cut of ohe
billion dollars, and strongly urges si
milar cuts in state and city budgets.
It proposes a return to the Demo
cratic policy of a ‘’competitive" tariff
for revenue only; pledgee the calling
of an International conference on
monetary issues for the purpose of
restoring the price of silver; and de
mands recognition of the "sancity" of
the war debt obligation, while leaving
the way open for leniency in payment
during the world depression.
The platform is a document per
sonally sponsored by Governor Roose
velt of New York.
It was read today, but up to the
last minute a snarl over prohibition
prevented its final approval by the
platform committee. The majority ln
the drafting sub-committee, itself
Roosevelt-dominated, reported a dif
ference of opinion over exact word

Two members, not of the Roosevelt
