JACKSON LAUDS F. DR, WNUTT AND GOVERNOR

Lawyer Makes No Mention Of Race for Senate at ‘Marion Meeting.

MARION, Dec. 10 (U. P.).—=Sam Jackson, Ft. Wayne attorney who is reported to be the State Administra-

tion’s candidate for the U. S. Senate in the 1938 state convention, made his bow to Grant County Democrats in an address here last night in which he lauded President Roosevelt, Governor Townsend and former Governor McNutt. Mr. Jackson as early as last summer was reported to have been selected by Democratic chieftains to oppose Senator VanNuys for renomination. The Governor was unable to attend the meeting, but the Democratic high ‘command was represented by Alex Pursley, Fifth District chairman and adviser of the Governor; Dick Heller, Governor Townsend’ss executive secretary; Omer Stokes Jatkson, State Democratic Chairman and Attorney General, and James Beatty, Democratic State Committee secretary. Mr. Pursley introduced Omer Jackson as “your state chairman and your next state chairman.” Observers said this virtually was official confirmation that Omer Jackson will not resign to be re-

placed by Mr. Heller, who was known to have desired the state chairmanship. / R. Earl Peters, Indiana Federal Housing Administrator and foe of Sam Jackson, did not attend the rally but sent a telegram of good wishes. | Sam Jackson asserted that President Roosevelt “is stronger today with the people than he ever has been before” and that the “old order of industrial tyranny has been correspondingly weakened.” He predicted the repeal of the corporate surplus profits tax by Congress and said that anyone who thereafter “purposely stifled business in order to diseredit the New Deal will do so at the price of condemnation or worse by an overwhelming public opinion.”

PROBE FIRE, BLAST AT KOKOMO PLANT

KOKOMO, Dec. 10 (U. P.).—Authorities today sought the origin of a fire which partially destroyed the huge north plant of the Continental

Steel Corp. here last night. The building, a block and a half long and a block wide, used in the manufacture of ornamental fence, was rocked by an explosion shortly after the blaze broke out. No one was injured. 4 Another explosion which probably would have had a more serious ef-] fect was averted when a Pennsylvania railroad switch engine crew drove through the blaze and hauled three tank cars of gasoline to safety. The fire brought out all available apparatus and kept firemen on the job most of the night. Several suffered frost-bite in the near-zero weather. Damage was not estimated immediately by plant officials,
