Campbell Too Far in Front in Survey
For Congressman to Win Tuesday
By NOBLE REED Congrasmin Andrew Jacobs' belated drive for the Democratic nomination for U. S. Senator, at the party's convention Tuesday, appeared doomed to failure last night. A survey of the 2096 convention delegates throughout 11 congressional districts by impartial observers showed

In this case the “Iron Curtain” will be the one which each of! the 2096 delegates draws when he enters the polling booth to record his choice on voting machines. | - “He will be in there with only have given the Jacobs candidacy himself and the Lord,” Mr. Jacobs his blessing before the Congress-| said. “Frank McHale will not/man entered the Senate race. know whom he is voting for, and] “Campbell forces have been re-| I am sure the Lord will neveriported as saying that Gov. tell him.”
