San Franetaco. EARL Mr' 1,4 1 SALES TAX STAND VOTERS' INTEREST Politics In Jackson county became slightly tepid today, after weeks of serenity, with the broadcasting of mild canards, and claims that a num ber of candidates were "double -shoot- ing the turn" on the school relief aales tax, by being for It In this city. and against It In the country. H, E. Conger, West Side district farmer and republican candidate for county Judge, was mentioned In this connection. Conger in a letter to the editor today, says: "Regarding the sales tax I thought everybody knew how I. stood. I am In favor of any thing that looks like property " tax relief." The sales tax Is quite an issue with many voters, particularly the women, who ask candidates how they stand on "relief for the schools." The ladies in their questioning demand definite answers, and are chary of last min ute conversations. Voters are being warned to beware of eleventh hour canards and circu lars. Distribution of dodgers contain ing false and sensational statements Is scheduled for late Thursday night. one report said. Typewritten slips of paper contain ing the resurrected "Good Govern ment congress" endorsement of Rufus C. Holman for governor, H. E. Conger for county Judge, Fred Rapp for com missioner, Amos W. Walker for sher iff, George Dunn for state senator. Earl Snell for secretary of state, A. C. Hough for circuit judge, and J. M. Devers for congressman were left in autos of this city last evening. Street talk today plainly showed a drift of local republican voters to Joe M. Dunne for governor, and the sentiment is evenly divided between rural and town voters. Holman and Brown have many supporters in the country sections. Democratic workers were busy cam paigning for General Martin. The Ma honey sentiment here Is not pro nounced, but is said to be strong in the north end of the county. Attor ney George A. Codding Is scheduled to speak tn behalf of the general over the radio tomorrow at 11:30 o'clock. Voters have started to shake off their apathy, and a heavier rote than first predicted is expected. Assessor Coleman, best of the local prognostt catora, predicts about 600 votes will be cast about a 60 per cent vote. Rain would cut this down. Edward G. Robinson In Rialto Picture History repeats Itself at the Rialto theater, where "Dark Hazard" Is being shown until tomorrow night. It sel dom, however, repeats Itself within as short a space of time as In the case of W. R. Burnett, celebrated American novelist, and Edward G. Robinson, equally celebrated film star. About three yeara ago a novel from the pen of Burnett made Robinson a star overnight. That picture was "Little Caesar." It started a cycle of gangster pictures that lasted for quite some time. And here history has started doubl ing on Its tracks again. "Dark Haz ard" again brings the combination of Burnett and Robinson together. Instead of being a gangster picture, however, this latest release Is the story of a well meaning, but Invete rate gambler who loves animals, rac ing, mankind and gambling too much to retain the love of his wife whom he adores. EDDIE CANTOR AT STUDIO TOMORROW Eddie Cantor sings three lively new song hits In hla Inimitable fashion In "Roman Scandals," showing tomor row at the Studio theater.
