He might be McNutt's liaison man with conservative business. Raymond Clapper, another Washington columnist who always has taken McNutt more aerloualy than some of his conferres. noted: "McNutt is being presented by those working In his behalf as a supporter of tbe administration objectives. This does not carry down to blank-

et approvsl of every single setion of the administration since 1933. but it does embrace the general purposes. Roughly McNutt would support most of the reforms in prinI ciple but probably would favor . tighter management on the fiscal , aide." Indicating that he believes ■ McNutt to be easent tally a con--1 servative. All the McNutt publicity may be aiding the Democratic cauae in next year’s elections, but Fred Rays, state chairman, isn't taking anything for granted . . He has scheduled 10 speeches and meetings for July despite the heat. A recent piece of Republican literature mailed out to party workers snd others from state headquarters show* a pattern of spares representing all the state, congressional and senatorial offices . . . Those the Republicans now hold-seven congressmen and the secretary of state—contain the pictures of the office-holders . . . The others contain a large queetinn mark, referring to the 1940 election. “Doc” McCormick. Republican candidate for mayor of East Chicago In the last election, predicted here recently that Lake county would be In the G. O. P. column ; next year . . . Over in Hammond | the Democrats are talking about Mayor Frank R Martin as a candidate for governor. , O' ONE MINER KILLER •CYWTINUKD FROM PAHR ONB> Harlan riot occurred on the main street of the town and that the guardsmen had restored order Police Guard Pontiac.
