PAGE TWO DARK HORSE FROM EASTERN CAROLINA LIKELY CHAIRMAN {Continued from Pace One.) become more active. Very few of those in political cir cle* here seem to think that any of those who have been mentioned as leading possibilities for the chairman ship are likely to get it. but that a "dark horse" is more likely to win this honor. No on# here thinks that Tam C. Bowie, of Ashe, the erstwhile opponent of Robert Ft. Reynolds for the senatorial nomination, has a ohanee at th? chairmanship, although he has been mentioned as one who would he acceptable to Reynolds. Neither is it believed that Major L P. McLendon, of Durham, who was campaign manager for J. C. B. Ehring haus. has any chance to get the chairmanship even if he wanted it. and reports indicate that he has no desire for it. It is agreed that Walter Woodson, of Salisbury, has the necessary back ground and ability for the post and that he is acceptable to both Reynolds and Ehringhaus. but for the fact that he comes from the wrong geo graphical location at this time, when the chairmanship is scheduled to go to some one in the eastern part of the State. This same factor is militat ing against A. L Brooks, of Greens boro. as well as against C. L. Shup ing. also of Greensboro, still regard ed as something of a political genius since he managed Senator J. W. Bailey's successful campaign in 1930. Th# objection to Brooks is that he ha# too frequently been out of step with the rank and file of the Demo crats in the State as well as with many of the leaders, with the result that many now doubt whether or not he would be able to develop the har mony and unity within the ranks of the party that is desired this fall, es pecially with the situation as it is in the eastern part of the State. Should Come from hast. In fact, the belief is growing in political circles there hat first of all, the new chairmun should come from th® eastern part of the State and that he should be just as acceptable to the former supporters of Lieutenant j Governor R. T. Fountain and of Sen- 1 ator Cameron Morrison as to either Reynolds or Ehringhaus. For it is i generally conceded that Ehringhaus will need the support of the thousands who voted for Fountain just as much I as Reynolds will need the support of 1 those who voted for Morrison in the 1 primary. Not that any one believes that either Ehringhaus or Reynolds will be in any danger this fall in the election. But they do believe it is better to be on the safe side and that the larger the majority of the Demo cratic candidates the better things will be. especially since all signs point to the election of a Democratic presi ( heck!! 1 , \)»cTin . ■//....

Among those fro mthe east who are being mentioned as possibilities for the chairmanship are Congressman ' Lindsay C. Warren, of the first dis trict. and Frank Hancock, of the fifth: George Freeman, of Goldsboro; ’ and J. Everett Thompson, of Elizabeth City, home town of Ehringhaus. It is generally admitted that Lindsay War ren would make an ideal chairman and could probably heal the breach in the ranks of the eastern Demo crats caused by the bitterness of the campaign between Fountain un Ehringhaus as quickly as any one could. For no one knows the eastern Democratic psychology any better than does Warren. He also enjoys the unique distinction of being one office holder and member of Congress which the people of his district and through the eastern section generally have no desire to kick out. The fact that ha is the author of the Federal aid high way construction bill that will make $5,800,000 available for new road con struction in this State has also served to add to his prestige and popularity. But no member of Congress has ever been selected chairman of the State committee, so far as is known, and it is not regarded as likely that either Warren or Hancock will be considered for this post. There are some who believe that Freeman would make an ideal chairman, except for the fact he is understood to have voted for Morrison instead of Reynolds, though some think that is an addi tional recommendation for Freeman. While Thompson is not so well known, a good many are coming to the conclusion that he has an excel lent chance for the post and would be an ideal man for it, especially since he would probably be accept able to Reynolds, having voted for both Ehringhaus and Reynolds. MANY DELEGATIONS ASK HIGHWAY WORK <Continued from Page One.) delegations that this money can be used only on roads designated by the U. S. Bureau of Public Roads as Fed eral aid projects, and that no work can be done with this money until each project has been approved by the Federal bureau. It was also point ed out that the government wants all the major highways completed before starting work on the secondary sys tem. The commission agreed, however, to do all it could to get as many of the roads urged by the delegations in cluded in the Federal aid systems. The commission hopes to get a num ber of its major propects approved as soon as possible so that it can call for bids and let some contracts by not later tht.n August 10. Chairman E. B.
