UPTON SINCLAIR IS FAVORITE IN GOVERNOR RACE .ft Noted Socialist Likely to Capture Democratic Nomination. Bt In it'd Pm* Three states voted In primary elections today, but the question that overshadowed all others in political circles was: ‘‘Will Upton Sinclair win in California?" Mr. Sinclair is running for the Democratic nomination f*r Governor in the coast state. The other primaries are in Mississippi and South Carolina. The first reason for political perturbation over Mr. Sinclair was that for years he has been one of the country's leading So- j cialists. The second was a widespread belief that he would win the nomination. A victory for Mr. Sinclair, the political strategists believe, may have widespread effects. They point out that it will present the j administration with a unique Democratic ticket containing a So- j cialist gubernatorial candidate and a Republican senatorial entry. Senator Hiram Johnson is running on four primary tickets, including the Democratic, and is marked a certain winner. Creel, Wardell in Race Mr. Sinclair's opponents for Democratic nomination are George Creel, wartime director of public information. and Justus Wardell. original California Roosevelt leader. They are expected to split conservative strength allowing Mr. Sinclair to win. Four men are entered in the California Republican gubernatorial contest. They are Governor Frank F. Merriam, John R. Quinn, past national American Legion commander, former Governor C. C. Young and Raymond Haight, former state corporation commissioner. A Sinclair victory would draw the issue squarely of radicalism and conservatism with whichever Republican wins. It is also expected to react in congressional races and possibly in national politics. The next most colorful race is in Mississippi. Although a primary the Democratic victors are just as well as elected after today. Huey’s Pal Contender Mississippi voters are getting a chance to decide whether they want to elect Theodore G. Bilbo who promises to ‘‘Out-Huey Huey Long” to the senate. Bilbo relinquished a 56.000 a year job clipping papers for the AAA in Washington to come back home and try for the senate. He is a former governor and Baptist preacher. Bilbo's favorite campaign statements have been that “Long learned his campaign tricks from me when he was wearing short pants" and “When I get to Washington I'll raise more hell than Huey.” Running against him are Senator Hubert S. Stephens. Representative j Ross Collins and State Senator Frank Harper. Senator Stephens ran on a support-the-President plank. Collins had the “unofficial support of Long and advocated redistribution of wealth. South Carolina is picking a governor. representatives in congress and voting on legalization of liquor.
