little more was reported in some parts
of the county.
So far as could be learned today,
there was no damage to growing
crops. There was a rumor of hail in
the mral sections between Henderson
and Oxford, but this could not be con
fined. and it is believed that if there
were any hail, it did no material
damage.
Tin was rolled back on roofs in
some places, and shingles or slate
were ripped off gables and corner sec
tions of roofs. Some windows were
smashed in instances.
The wind blew up suddenly out of a
dangerous-looking cloud In the' north
west and lasted pnly a fn,w minutes,
but was the nearest approach to a

Ehringhaus and have the complete
approval of Reynolds
That Reynolds has acted wisely in
soft-pedaling his early demands that
the new chairman be some one who
supported him as well as Ehringhaus.
i both his supporters and the followers !
of other candidates agree. Right after
the primary, in which Reynolds de
feated Morrison by a majority of
105.857. he rose up and demanded that
he be consulted by Ehringhaus in the
selection of the new chairman for the
State Democratic Executive Commit
tee. Some of Reynolds more enthus
iastic friends even expressed the 1 ; otv
inlon that Reynolds rather *thah

ocrattc nominee for governor to have j
this privilege. Reynolds made it very
clear, however, that he expected to'
foe consulted and that he wanted a I
man that supported his candidacy as
well as that of Ehringhaus.
But these demands by Reynolds did
not sit so well with a good many peo
ple. especially those here in the east
who realize how close the Democratic
party Is to be an open rupture In |
some sections, and the need for party j
harmony this fall in the general elec
tion. Etan some of those who fought i
hardest, for Reynolds felt that he
made a- mistake by becoming so vocal
over U\e selection of the new chair-'
man. There is no doubt that many of
the Ehringhaus supporters frankly
resented Reynolds' attitude, as well
as the J. 20,128 who voted for Morrison
instead of Reynolds and whoso votes
"Our Rob" will need this fall in the
general, 1 election.
But Reynolds is intelligent. He not
only is intelligent but politically
smart. He also possesses a quality
which his opponent, Senator Moirison
does not possess—or did not befoie
the primaries—the willingness to lis
ten to.others, opponents as well as
friends. Reynolds has been listening.
He has begun to realize that while he
got 227,864 votes for the short teim
and 221.869 for the long term .that in
November he will need to get moie
than 300,000 votes in order to be on
the safe side of victory, and that to do
this he will need most of the 120,428
votes cast for Senator Morrison. It
must not be forgotten that 348.923
votes were cast for Herbert Hoover in
1928 and that George M. Pritchard.
Republican nominee for senator
against Josiah W. Bailey in 1930. re
ceived 210,731 votes.
So indications are that since the
first flush of victory has departed
and since he has had a chance to
think things over thougtfully and
carefully, taking every thing into con
sideration. Reynolds has decided that
party harmony in November is more
to be desired than the right to say
who shall be chairman of the execu
tive committeee. As a result, reports
from those on the inside of the Rey
nolds councils indicate that he is not
going to have anything more to say
about the chairmanship and he will he
satisfied Witih /whoever Ehringhaus
wants for the post. »
It is conceded, of course, that Ehring
haus will consult Reynolds. Anyone
who knows Ehringhaus knows that he
woud have consulted him any way,
for above everything else it is agreed
that Ehringhaus Is a gentleman and
that he would have consulted Rey
nolds out of courtesy and considera
tion if for no other reason, although
Ehringhaus realizes the need for
party harmony and desires It just as
much as Reynolds or any one else.
Reynolds seems to have waked up to
a realization erf all this. Just who the
next chairman will be is not known.
But he will be agreeable to both can
didates.

their once well organized camps

The tattered group, some marching,
some hitch hiking, some getting rides
in vehicles offered by adjoining
states, were ushered out of the capital
with a statement by President Hoover
deploring an attempt to coerce the
government by mob rule and express
ing gratification that the challenge
had been met "swiftly and firmly.”
To see that the veterans did stay
out, three companies of steel-helmet
ed infantry camped on the scarred
site of the t>onus demanders once
more active center—acres of low
ground In Anacostia, a suburb.
This camp, like all the others that
had been busy as beehives for months,
now Is nothing but a ruin. It was
burned to the ground. Instead of
proudly waving standards marking
