"W. W. Chadwick "and one of
his two opponents will nter a
runoff - race in November for the'
post as Salem's mayor, lncom
plete returns from 24 of the city's
2 6 precincts Indicated shortly be
fore midnight last night.
While Chadwick held,;257S
votes. Edwin C.' Goodenough' and
Dr. O. A. Olson.- both former
councllmen, had 1488 and 1493,
respectively. It appeared .unlikely
Chadwick could amass the ma
jority required to elect at the pri
mary city election. The race be
tween uootenougn ana ur. uison
was a see-saw affair as the re
turns progressed.
The same returns shewed Van
Wieder, former councilman, and
E. B. , Gabriel. Incumbent chair
man. virtually certain of election
to the city water commission. In
only two precincts' Incomplete re
turns had William Bliven third
candidate received a majority.
Throughout the count Wieder
and Gabriel led. In the 24 pre
cincts Wieder received 3179, Ga
briel 3125 and Bliven 2653, with
the counfflnished.
The voters readily accepted the
council's proposal to issue 850.'
000 in bonds to pay for sewage
Improvements, needed in the vi
cinity of the new capltol group
In no precinct, reported was there
a majority against the Issue. The
23-precinct incomplete total was
3567 yea and 1812 no.
- Three of the eight council races
indicated definitely the candidate
elected. r
Alderman E. B. Perrine, seek
ng a second four-year term, con
sistently kept ahead of S. J. Yates
In the first ward and at the late
count, with incomplete returns
from all precincts, led his oppo
nent 546 to 270.
The other first ward council
contest was a horse race with the
lead switching back and forth be-;
tween James II. Nicholson, incum
bent, and Otto M. Bowman for
the two-year term. Bowman held
m 443 to 428 advantage.
In the big second ward the pre
cinct No. 11 counting board an
- Bounced Its voters had given Dr,
F. B. Laughlin. Willamette uni
versity professor, a 157 to 130
. majority over L, F. LeGarie, in
cumbent, for the two-year council
term, and Alderman Frank P,
Marshall a 159 to 107 lea,d over
A. A. Geer for the four-year term.
Precincts 2 and 23 remained to
be heard from.
Lawrence. N. Brown, young Sa
lem attorney, appeared to have
. swept both third ward precincts
to -defeat, Ralph H. Kletilng for
the council seat with the latest
' count 400 for Brown to 159 for
Kletzing.

with Incomplete returns from

- A. Warren Jones and Paul H.
Hauser lacked opponents to their
.reelection as city recorder and
treasurer; respectively.
. - The strong support given him
led Chadwick to express his ap
preciation to the voters formally.
"I am indeed grateful for the
confidence you have shown me
with the fiae vote given me for
the office of mayor," Chadwick's
statement said. "If it will be nec
essary for me to have a runoff
with either of my opponents, I as
sure you that I shall continue my
campaign on my platform, to keep
Salem a clean city, and. If elected.
to carry on businesslike admini

Congressmen Work

WASHINGTON, May 20.-(-
Oregon s tnree representatives
professed to be nn worried as they
spent the day at their desks while
voters at ; home ballotted on
whether to return them to office.
None of ; the three, James W
Mott, republican, of Salem; Nan
Wood Honeyman, democrat, Port
land, and Walter M. Pierce, demo
crat. La Grande, returned home
to campaign. '
The people of Oregon don't
like to have their congressmen

Republicans voters in Marion
connty were strictly in line with
the statewide trend, midnight tab
ulations of votes revealed. In the
race for the governorship noml
nation, Charles A. Sprague of
Salem held a 3-to-2 lead over his
nearest opponent, Sam Brown of
Gervais, both residents of the
connty. ..
Sprague's lead here was not as
heavy as it was elsewhere In the
state, but was expected to increase
as Salem returns were tabulated
A majority of the 35 precincts
figuring in the midnight total
were from rural districts. Earlier
incomplete tabulations of Salem
precincts had given Sprague
much greater margin. These fig-
ules were not included in the mid
night total..
Rufus Holman was leading Rob
ert N. Stanfield nearly 3-to-l for
the nomination for US senator
James W. Mott was more than
that ahead of Walter Norblad for
state representative. C- H. Gram's
lead over David F. Graham for
labor commissioner was about the
same. . r

In his annual report, the Brit

"It has already, blocked some

But in the latter half of 1937,
Butler said,1 the economic tide
turned with stock market declines

He said the major disturbance

He attributed the American, re

paign which resulted in scores of
arrests and more than 30 convic
tions in an elaborate investigation
of labor disorders.
