Indiana Representatives Delighted Over Election All Are Happy Over Renomination and Confident They Will Be Re-Elected in November Poll. BY DANIEL M. KIDNEY Times Staff Writer WASHINGTON, May B.—The Hoosier delegation in the House consists of a dozen delighted congressmen today. All have returned to their seats happy over their renomination and confident of victory next fall. For most of them, wrinkles caused by rumors of strength of Townsendites and Coughlinites have disappeared.

Several boast that they will meet Republican opponents whom they have defeated before. This list includes Reps. J. I. Farley, Sam B. Fettengill, Arthur Greenwood, John W. Boehne Jr. and Eugene B. Crowe. Mrs. Virginia E. Jenckes has a former congressman as her Republican foe, as does Reps. Farley and Fettengill. Schulte Is Confident Rep. William T. Schulte of the First District hasn’t heard who the G. O. P. nominated, but declared: “I can beat any one running in that district except President Roosevelt.” , Rep. Charles A. Halleck, the lone Republican member, feels confident that he will be returned o er the Democratic nominee, Hugh Barnhart, Rochester, son of a former Democratic congressman. “The Second District looks very much Republican,” Mr. Halleck commented. It was cut out with that idea in mind under the late Republican leader—Rep. Will Wood. Lawyer Opposes Pettengill Mr. Pettdngill's opponent in the Third District is Andrew Hickey. La Porte lawyer, who has been the G. O. P. nominee for the last 22 years. The South Bend Representative has defeated him twice and he was defeated before that by the late Rop. Henry A. Barnhart, whose son is in the Second District race. Mr. Hickey was a member of Congress for 12 years, however. Rep. Farley, who was most thrilled with his renomination victory over stiff opposition from Judge Vincent McNabb of Fort Wayne, faces David Hogg as his opponent in the Fourth District this fall. Mr. Hogg is a former congressman whom Mr. Farley has defeated twice. Recount May Be Made Rep. Glenn Griswold of the Fifth District may be opposed by Benjamin Brown, Kokomo, Townsend Club member. A recount may be made, for Richard T. James, Portland. was defeated by two votes on the basis of unofficial tabulation of official returns Mrs. Jenckes is opposed to former Congressman Noble Johnson in the ; Sixth District. She has a record of j defeating two congressmen in the ! past. She ousted Rep. Courtland Giliand from the Democratic re-

nomination when she first ran and then defeated the once-formidable Republican Congressman Fred Purnell. Rep. Arthur H. Greenwood is paired again in the Seventh District with Gerald Landis of Linton, school teacher and athletic coach, but no relation to the famed Landis family of Logansport. Mr. Boehne meets his old foe— Charles Werner, Evansville attorney and one-time assistant attorney general—in the Eighth. Rep. Crowe also faces a Republican repeater in the Ninth—Chester Davis, Bedford. Rep. Finly G. Gray, who seeks a third term as a Democrat in the strong Republican Tenth District, may be opposed by Clarence Brown, one-time Delaware County prosecutor but now an attorney at Richmond. Elmer F. Bossert, Liberty, is running neck-and-neck with Brown for the nomination, on the basis of unofficial returns. In the Eleventh District Rep. William H. Larrabee apparently will face Don F. Roberts. Rep. Louis Ludlow is opposed by Homer Elliott in the Twelfth District. CONGRATULATESWINNER IN CONGRESSIONAL RACE Beveridge Statement Supports Campaign of Homer Elliott. Albert J. Beveridge Jr., defeated in the primary election by Homer Elliott ir. the Republican race for nomination for congressman in the Twelfth District, today issued a congratulatory statement to his opponent. He said: 7 want to congratulate Homer Elliott on his splendid victory. Our race was clean-cut and sincere. I know that Mr. Elliott will be a capable and vigorous standard-bearer of the Republican Party in the coming i election. Personally, I shall do everything I can, not only to help Mr. Elliott but also the Republican Party.” See New 1936 Cabinet Model fp ir ~-EiC Speed Queen Jog Electric Wisher with jrajl Safety-Roll Wringer an excluslva feature. iffl ~ | E Vonnegut’s jQlff 130 E Washington. f\f \uY|)

recently started a movement for all incapacitated veterans. The Tribune in a front-page editorial asserts that the “soldier vote” probably can carry the balance in a national election, and urges Senator steiwer as one who “has done everything possible to aid the men who wore the uniform in time of war and their dependents.” Mr. Steiwer is the keynoter for the Republican national convention. He has been active in nearly all veterans’ legislation brought up since his election to the Senate 10 years ago. He is generally regarded as half-way between progressive and conservative camps in the Senate.
