OKLAHOMA IS SIFTING LIST f OF CANDIDATES Voters Go to Polls in First Primary; Runoff Two Weeks From Now. Bit t'nitr4 prrm OKLAHOMA CITY. July 29. - After weeks of campaigning before an apathetic electorate, Oklahoma politicians watched today as voters went to the primary polling booths to choose the candidates who will meet two weeks hence in the runoff Although Oklahoma voted overwhelmingly for Herbert Hoover in 1928. it was thought there was no possibility of party bolting this year, and interest centered in the Democratic nominations considered in most cases tantamount to election. A quarter million votes were expected. Nine gubernatorial candidates appeared on the Democratic slate. Leading the list as pre-election favorites were W. H. <Alfalfa Bill) Murray, one of Oklahoma's most colorful politicians, and Frank Buttram. oil man noted for his philanthropies. Murray, one of the signers of the state Constitution, was expected to gain most of his support from the rural sections, where he concentrated much of his campaign. Buttram will draw his support from the cities. Ex-Governors in Race Four former Governors, two of whom were impeached, have made ; vigorous campaigns as candidates for the United States senate, reviving to some extent the flagging interest in the election. Henry S. Johnston, impeached in 1928; J. C. (Jack) Walton, also removed. and J. B. A. Robertson, who successfully withstood impeachment proceedings—all are staging “vindication comebacks.' 1 The other former Governor candidate is Lee Cruce. Walton is an independent, the others Democrats. Other senatorial candidates were Kathryn Van Leuven, the state's first woman assistant attorney-gen-eral; former Senator T. P. Gore; Charles J. Wrightson, wealthy Tulsan; Woodson E. Norvell, Charles W. Harris, E. O. Barnard and William L. McCann. The Republican nomination for senator was conceded to Senator W. P. Pine, Incumbent. He was opposed by J. J. Bcbout and Charles J. Benson. First Two-Primary Trial An array of lesser state officials opposed Buttram and Murray for the gubernatorial nomination. Frank V. Bailey formerly was a state supreme court justice; if. E. HYapp once was Governor, taking office to fill the unexpired term of Walton when the latter was impeached; A. S. J. Shaw is state auditor; E. B. Howard is a former congressman. Others are Jess L. Pullen. L. M. Overton and E. R. Powers. The method of holding two primary elections, the first to narrow down the list for the second and deciding contest, is being used this year for the first time in Oklahoma. Political observers blamed the two-primary system for the lack of interest in today's balloting. The run-off will be held in two weeks, at which time two candidates will contest for each office.

City Man’s Invention Shows Ailments by Tiny Scars on Iris. BY HERBERT L. CECIL Eyes arc mirrors of the soul. As the expert character reader declares reading ot the eyes reveals the soul of the owner. Dr. R. W. Bennett, 306 Kahn building, eye specialist, asserts reading ot the eyes is an almost infalliable guide to bodily ailments and injuries. If you dislocate your ankle, for instance, a scar appears in the iris of the eye. If you are injured on the left leg, the left eye will bear a scar, so minute it can not be seen with the naked eye. If you suffer from tuberculosis the iris of the eye betrays the fact with a scar. Diagnosis Possible And the scars are so arranged that, by study. aiv of patients can be diagnosed. Dr. Bennett declares. Hundreds of tests have convinced him and several other Indianapolis specialists, surgeons and physicians, that the 100-ycar old science of the eye is entering anew field, he says. In Boston recently, an unidenti- I fled man was murdered. Dr. Bennett examined the dead mans eyes. In them he found scars that charted the man’s life, he asserts. The scars in the eyes resulted in description of accidents and injuries suffered by the dead man during life that resulted in his identification according to Dr. Bennett. F,pr many years, according to Dr. Bennett, eye specialists have recognized the fact that a definite relation existed between “spots” or scars on tns eye and bodily ailments and injuries. Dr. Benne t has been ! granted patents on an iriilimeter, an instrument which illuminates and magnifies the eye for minute study of the “qye spots.” Illumines the Iris Dr. Bennett says it i the first instrument of its kind. It lights the iris and betrays telltale spots which denote illness and injury. Not only that, but Dr. Bennett declares the invention actually locates the ailment. The eye has definite areas or degrees devoted to each section of the body, Dr. Bennett declares. A chart which appears above has been published for many years in standard textbooks. If you have a foot ailment, the eye will show the injury or ailment with a scar or spot at the extreme lower edge. Nerves center in the eye, Dr. Bennett says, and injury or illness causes them to disintegrate and reflect the injury. The scars are permanent in cases of injury, but reveal their age bv white rings and streaks. By study of the spots, the iridemeter inventor declares it is possible to determine whether a patient suffers from a lung, heart, stomach, intestinal or any other ailment, and, further, to determine and chart progress of the disease. He asserts the invention will make possible continual study by physicians of progress of the disease in ; order to determine whether treat- : ments are working, as planned. When treatments are failing, the spots will grow darker gradually and will become more pronounced, without the white lines, which denote healing. Dr. Bennett claims. Shows Hidden Illness Insurance companies will find a use for the instruments in detecting hidden complaints of insurance policy applicants, defects and incipient ailments which would not show readily under regular physical examination, Dr. Bennett declares. That the spots are the direct result of pain is proven, Dr. Bennett declares, by the fact that, when a patient undergoes an operation the spot does not show until effects of anesthetics begin to wear off. The spot then appears in the degree of | the eye devoted to the part of the body affected, he says. Dr. Bennett worked seven years to develop iridimeter. He is a native of Rushville and a graduate of Northern Illino.s university at Chi- ! cago. j He now is presenting the instrument in demonstrations before groups of eye specialists and medil cal men and declares it recently met with acclaim at a meeting at Washington.

COOL THEATERS WIN OVER HOT WEATHER Personalities on Three Bills Help to Draw People Away From the Heat Into Places of Amusement. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN FOR the last two days, the question here has been—Where can we get cool? During the terrific heat of the last three days at least three of the downtown theaters have played to nearly capacity at all performances and in several Instances standing room only was in demand. I know many people have told me that they were avoiding the heat by going to the down town cool theaters these hot days. Reports all over the country show that people are escaping from the heat by going to,cool theaters. . * I realize the fact that at least three of the very cool downtown
theaters have a great name or personality draws this week. At the Indiana, Helen Kane is the box office draw which takes them into the theater. The Palace has its draw in the presence of Marie Dressier and Norma Shearer in the talker, “Let Us Be? Gay,” The Lyric has its draw in Princess Zulieka who answers people’s questions. This type of entertainment to some people has been a consistent source of entertainment. I never take such acts seriously. I consider it merely as a form of entertainment. In this case the Princess does not blindfold her eyes but sits before a crystal. People in the audience write their question on a paper and then “concentrate” upon the question. The Princess called my name yesterday and began answering a business question. I had not written a question nor had my mind upon anything regarding my career. As far as I heard, nobody answered when my name was called. I know that I had asked no question and was not concentrating upon any at the Lyric at the first show yesterday afternoon. Asa type of entertainment, I class Princess Zulieka as less than fair. On the same bill is “King D,” a MEXICO IS WORKING TO SETTLE UP DEBTS Nation's Credit to Be Established, President’s Statement Says. Bv T’nitrrt Press MEXICO CITY, July 29.—Reaction in Mexico City to the terms of the Mexican national and railways debt settlement signed at New York last week indicated today the agreement would be approved without serious difficulties by the Mexican congress. The agreement will enable the Mexican government to complete settlement shortly of both foreign and national claims arising from damages during the various armed conflicts in Mexico, President Pasqual Ortiz Rubio said in a statement. “I believe the advantages obtained in the agreement will establish Mexico’s national credit,” President Ortiz Rubio said. “I also believe that, once having demonstrated good faith, it will be easy to arrange matters regarding our interior debt, to which the finance department is giving its attention.” ORANG IS BORN AT ZOO Infant Anthropoid Third to Open His Eyes in Captivity. Bu Science Service PHILADELPHIA, July 29. A baby orang-utan, the third born hi captivity, has arrived at the Philadelphia zoological gardens. The first infant orang was born in the zoo in Nuremberg, Germany, and lived about a week. The second was born of the present*mother in the Philadelphia zoo and lived about a year.

dog of the movies. Just a fair demonstration. Leo Prince plays the accordian. Muriel and Fisher in “A Bachelor’s Romance,” have worked out a musical comedy idea around paintings coming to life. The best bit is an eccentric classical dance done by a man and woman. Wilson and Deers go in for foolish singing and comedy. The movie at the Lyric is “Double Cross Roads” with Lila Lee. tt tt o Other theaters today offer: “Let Us Be Gay” at the Palace, “Safety in Numbers” at the Ohio, “The “Cuckoos” at the Circle, Helen Kane at the Indiana, “Women Everywhere” at the Apollo, and “Jango” at the Colonial.

STALIN FIGURES ON SOVIET GAIN -FAR FROM BULL Statistics Show Russia Is Forging Ahead Steadily in Expansion Work. E<!itor‘> Note—This Is one of a series of articles on the economic situation in the Soviet Union as revealed in Stalin's report to the Communist party. BY EUGENE LYONS United Press Staff Correspondent MOSCOW. July 29.—Statistics, as handled by Joseh Stalin and other Soviet leaders, are not dull rows of figures. They have a movement and drama of their own, because they convey the sense of a great nation hurling itself breathlessly into the future. The unquestioned head of the Bolsheviks took the period of two and a half years from the last congress of the party to this one as the span for comparisons and contrasts. Probably never in the history of any country has such great expansion been achieved in so short a time. Delegates Applaud A few basic figures suffice to indicate this fact, although Stalin himself cited statistics for hours, his citations being punctuated by stormy applause from the delegates crowding the Moscow opera house. All industry in 1927 showed a production of 8,641,000.000 gold rubles, or 2*i per cent above prewar production in the same territory. This year, it is already clear, the figure will reach 80 per cent above the prewar—an increase, that is to say of 7754 per cent in about three years. Freight on Increase Railroad freight movement, 27 per cent higher than before the war three years ago, is 93 per cent higher at present. Even agriculture, fisheries and lumber, more backward phases of the national economy, showed together a growth of about 10 per cent in the three years. The nationai budget more than doubled in the same periods; from 6.371.000.000 rubles ill 1927 to 12,605,000,000 this year. Stalin reflected the general pride of Russian Coirmunists in their claim that the Soviet union has passed this year from a predominately farming nation to a predominately industrial nation. Before the war 58 per cent of the total production of the country w ? as agricultural 42 per cent industrial. Almost on Equality Last year the division was almost equal with a slight margin still for agriculture. In 1930, Stalin pointed out, industry has 53 per cent of the total and sericulture 47. “We find ourseives,” Stalin concluded, “on the eve of our transformation from an agrarian land into an industrial land,” and the statement evoked lusty cheers. Os the industry under the guidance of the supreme council of economy—that Is to say, of the planned and organized industry—about half now consists of the production of machinery. The significance of this was stressed by Stalm as providing a permanent base *for Soviet independence industrially from the rest of the world. WAR - THREAT IS VOICED Turkey Sends Troops to Persian Frontier Over Kurdish Roads. Bv Unit pit Press _ _ ANGORA, Tu*key, July 29.—Reinforcements were ordered today to proceed to the Persian frontier where the Kurdish tribesmen recently have made raids on Turkish territory.
