CENSUS POLITICAL COMPLAINT IS ‘DUD’

The first complaint of Hatch Act violation in Indiana census enumeration’ today proved a “dud.” Mary Gray, one of the two area census managers located here, received a complaint that one of the enumerators in his Southern Indiana jurisdiction was a candidate for delegate to the Democratic State Convention. After investigation, Mr. Gray and /W. A. Kuight, the other manager ‘here, found the candidacy had 'been filed without the enumerator’s \consent and had been withdrawn ion April 1, the day before the cen|sus began. Mr. Knight said a report had been sent to Washington.

LONDON, April 6 (U. P.).—Two Franco-British conferences have resulted in completed plans for an immediate, ruthless blockade in all

Disclosure of the decision followed British action in informing Norway and Sweden that its interest in Scandinavia had been increased : by Russia’s victory over Finland and that the Allies had decided to take a firm stand against either the entry of Scandinavia to the German orbit or any Russian bid for Atlantic Scandinavian ports.

Norway Disturbed _

An ° immediate reaction came from Oslo, where Foreign Minister Halvdan Koht told Parliament today that he could not imagine any war which Norway might fight except a compelling one in defense of its independence and liberty. In a half hour speech in which he reviewed Norway's position as a key neutral in Europe, he said that the Government's only desire was to remain neutral and added: “If the Allies should demand

that we halt our general independ- |

Thus our country would immediately be in the war.”

Candidates, especially the six running for the gubernatorial nomination, will be forced to revise their speaking schedules and probably cancel some because a week ago many of them were expecting the Convention to be the second week in June. The early convention date was seen as an advantage, however; to at least two candidates for Governor, William FE. Jenner, of Shoals, and Judge James A. Emmert. of Shelbyville, who. have been
