ALLEN KANSAS SENATE CHOICE; GOVERNOR REED LOSING

‘BEST DRESSER' IS CONCEDED AS G. 0. P. WINNER Hoover Aid Sees Election as Vindication of President. TICKET MATE TRAILING Faces Loss by 40,000 Votes to Legion Head; Farm Policy Spurned. Bn United Press TOPEKA, Kan.. Aug. 6—Henry Justin Allen, 61. senate supporter of President Hoover, former newspaper publisher and reputedly one of tba “test dressed” men in Washington, today was conceded the Republican nomination for Junior senator from Kansas on the face of incomplete returns from Tuesday’s primary. Allen, who construed his apparent victory over a field of three opponents as a vote of confidence in the national administration, won over W. H. Sproul, former congressman; Ralph Snyder, Kansas farm bureau head, and James Getty, Kansas City fKan) attorney. He held a two-to-one lead over his nearest opponents. Sproul and Snyder. Allen's Lead Rig In contrast, Allen’s primary running mate, Governor Clyde M. Reed, 59, opponent of Alexander Legge’s wheat crop policies, faced the possibility of losing by 40,000 votes in his race for a second term against Prank Haucke, 35, former World war sergeant, American Legion head, farmer and young state Republican leader. Early returns showed Senator Allen polled 84.191 votes in 1,840 of the 2.668 precincts in the state. Sproul has 37.648; Snyder, 39,212, and Getty, 28,734. Reports from 2,203 precincts gave Haucke 126,372 votes and Governor Reed 100 882. Farm Not an Issue Governor Reed’s championing of the wheat growers’ complaints failed apparently to bring him the heavy rural vote he needed to overcome his younger opponent's strength in the cities. Haucke, although a farmer, did not attempt lo make the agricultural situation an issue. Allen will enter the fall election ; Jn opposition either to George McGill, fellow Wichita citizen, or Charles Stephens, Democratic nominee. who opposed Curtis in the last election. McGill was leading in the Democratic races. Senator Arthur Capper, senior Republican incumbent, was unop- i posed in the primary and in the fall wiU meet Jonathan Davis, former Democratic Governor and farmer, also unopposed. The Republican candidate for Governor probably will oppose jSarry Woodring, former soldier, who was leading N. L. Bowman for the Democratic nomination. Anti-Smiths Lose Jtu United Press „ RICHMOND, Va., Aug. 6 —Two of Virginia's ten congressional districts had repudiated anti-Smith Democrats today as primary ballots were tabulated, while in a third, a wet Democrat apparently was nominated to oppose the Republican incumbent elected in the Hoover landslide.

Burch won the Democratic race, tantamount to election, in the Fifth district, with a majority of 3,702 over Congressman Joseph Whitehead, charged with being lukewarm in supporting Smith. The Second district nominated Joseph P. Deal, wet, over Wilson Vellines and Mrs. Sarah Lee Fain. Negro Badly Beaten St' IOUIS. Aug. 6.—Congressman L. C.

PROTEST SLASH IN STREET LEVY City Plan Group Opposes Reported Move. Disturbed over reports from the office of City Controller William L. .Elder that he contemplates cutting the 1-cent thoroughfare fund levy from the 1931 budget, a committee representing the city plan commission has registered protest with Mayor Reginald H.

Sixteenth street, East New York and Forty-sixth street widening projects are under way with thoroughfare funds.

PROPOSE 1,000 NEW PLANES IN NAVYPROGRAM $85,000,000 Construction Project Planned for Next Five Years. Bu Unit'd Preen _ WASHINGTON, Aug. 6—Recommendation that the navy request congressional authorization for a huge new five-year airplane building project, under which 1,000 planes would be constructed at a cost of $85,000,000, was before the navy general board today. The board must approve this plan if it decides to build up the navy to the limits of the London naval treaty, it was said at the aeronautics bureau. Planes built under the proposed new program, which would supplement the present 1,614-plane authorization made by congress in 1925 and now in its last year, would be used on the 69,000 tons of new aircraft carriers allotted the United States under the treaty. One obstacle that might prevent carrying out this program, it was pointed out, is th; rigid economy policy which President Hoover has warned his cabinet officers to follow. It is the opinion of high navy officers, however, that the President will agree to building up to treaty limits. The possibility congress might object to such a large appropriation was minimized by these officers, who pointed out the 1925 authorization carried an appropriation of $85,078,750. Rear Admiral William A. Moffett, chief of the aeronautics bureau, has indorsed the 1,000-plane plan, which he discussed last week in a speech dedicating anew airport at Bay City, Mich. x SULLIVAN SETS AIR WEEK DATE Proclaims Aug. 9-17 Time for Aerial Programs. Mayor Reginald H. Sullivan today officially proclaimed the week of Aug. 9 to 17, as Aviation week in Indianapolis and urged citizens to join in observance of a state-wide program sponsored by the Indiana Aircraft Trades Association. Aviation week will start with an aerial parade over the city, Aug. 9, with glider demonstrations at city airports in the afternoon, it is announced by Captain H. Weir Cook, Curtiss-Wright Flying Service president. An altitude flight in a mystery ship, balloon bursting contests, display of model airplanes at the Circle theater and deadstick landing contests are events planned for the week. The grand finale of the week will be stunt flying and parachute jumping by flying students, Aug. 17. Special aviation displays will be placed in several downtown shop windows during the week.

GARAGE TO CUT TOW-IN CHARGE ‘Two-Way’ Price Abandoned on City’s Protest. Although contending the city legal department has placed the wrong interpretation on “a necessary running square,” T. B. Rogers, Test Realty Corporation representative, today declared the company will endeavor to abide by the safety board’s ruling in the police haul-in contract case. On advice of Coporation Counsel Edward H. Knight the safety board ordered the Test firm to discontinue the practice of “double charging” for towing in machines. According to the board’s version of the contract the garage has charged for the going and return trip of the truck and not the actual distance the automobile is towed. “Any truck or garage man will tell you that ‘necessary running squares’ means the distance his truck travels,’ Rogers asserted. Rogers said George Dailey, son of Frank C. Dailey, safety board member, represented the company in various matter but had not advised the firm in this case.

GANDHI’S DRIVE HARD BLOW TO BRITISHFIINDS Threat to Business and Industry in India Also Is Growng. Bn Vnited Press LONDON, Aug. 6.—Serious effects of Mahatma M. K. Gandhi’s home rule movement in India, where violence has been renewed this week, was made apparent today in the first official figures on government revenues and in the India office’s survey of economic conditions. In every case, official reports and figures indicated that, despite arrest of most independence leaders, the movement has rapidly increased its threat to business and industry as well as to government revenues in the last few weeks. Serious Effects Shown The mahatma's campaign, launched last April, has been blamed directly for: 1. A decrease of 25 per cent in the estimated (official) revenue of the central provinces government for excise taxes is only one of nine fiheal year. The central provinces government is only one of nine principal British Indian provinces. Others expetced greater decreases. 2. A decrease of more than 1,500,000 rupees in other classes of revenue, such as stamps, forests registration, etc. 3. An increase in central provinces expenditures, due to extra police, which reduced expenditures for roads, public buildings, health and education. 4. Confirmation that the economic position of India has rapidly become worse. Close Countless Shops 5. Closing of many mills in Bombay and other centers, closing of countless liquor and foreign goods shops by picketing, increase in unemployment and business depression reflected on the stock exchange in Bombay. It was believed likely that the home rule leaders would greet the figures with acclaim as showing the efficacy of the movement.
