Many Anticipate
Countess' Talk
In City Monday
Residents of southern Oregon
are anticipating with interest
the appearance here .".ext Mon
day evening of the Countess
Morag Zamoyska and Mrs. Ivi
son Macadam, both refugees
from the European war, who
will speak at the high school
auditorium. The countess, a for
mer Polish resident, will speak
on 'The Destruction of Warsaw,"
and Mrs. Macadam, who former
ly resided in London, will speak
on "England at War."
Both Mrs. Macadam and
Countess Zamoyska have made
a number of lecture appearances
in the northern part of the state
and their first-hand accounts of
the war are said to be most
vivid. Mrs. Macadam is the
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. R.
Corbett of Portland. She re
turned to this country last June
from London, bringing with her
a group of refugee children,
among them her own two children-Countess
Zamoyska. who liv
ed through the terrible siege of
Warsaw, escaped last fall to Eng
land and this summer came to
this country, accompanied by
her small daughter. The Count
ess is a Scotchwoman by birth
and her Polish husband is in a
German concentration camp.
"With such widespread inter
est in the war, and generally
with the foreign policy of this
country, the lecturers come at
an especially timely moment,"
says Mrs. Justin Smith, head of
the foreign policy department
of the Jackson County League
of Women 'Voters, sponsoring
group for the lectures.
"The League of Women Vot
ers has recognized for many
years that the power and im
portance of the United States
make it a factor in world af
fairs. The league has also rec
ognized that conditions in other
parts of the world affect the
well-being of the United States.
The league has therefore urged
that the influence of the United
States be used to promote peace
ful relations among countries
and to discourage aggression
Before and after the outbreak
of hostilities in Europe it sup
ported legislation to pprmit aid
to the Allies as the victims of
aggression, knowing that the
interests of the United States
would best be served if no war
occurred or if the Allies were
victorious. It has worked for
legislation to promote a freer
flow of international trade. It
has supported efforts to promote
close cooperation among the
Americas. It has supported the
efforts of the administration to
stop aggression in China. The
league continues to support the
principles underlying these spe
cific actions." "
The lecture will begin at 8
o'clock. 'A small admission
charge will be made to cover
expenses-

DEFINITELY
FOR SENATE RACE
New York Labor Right Wing
ers Hold Margin Over Left
ists in Early Returns
By the Associated Press
Connecticut Republicans se
lected an ex-advertising man to
day to run for the United States
senate against the Democratic
incumbent, while returns from
yesterday's primaries confirmed,
in the main, trends established
in early counts.
Paul L. Cornell, now owner
of a preparatory school, was
choice of the Connecticut Re
publican convention. He will op
pose Senator Francis T. Maloncy
in November.
In New York, so-called "right
wing" of the American Labor
party supporting President
Roosevelt won 53 congressional
and state legislative offices to 50
for opposing "leftists." One in
dependent came out the winner
in the first 94 or 131 contests to
be settled.
Wisconsin G. O. P. Wins
The double defeat of former
Representative John J. O'Con
nor of New York and strength
shown by Wisconsin Republi
cans were other highlights.
O'Connor, whose defeat for
the Democratic renominalion
was successfully advocated by
administration forces in 1938,
lost out in efforts to win both
Republican and Demo c r a 1 1 c
nominations in Manhattan's 16th
congressional district.
In Wisconsin, meanwhile
Democrats who have been criti
cal of President Roosevelt were
well out In front of an adminis
tration supporter for the party's
nomination for U. S. senator.
The gubernatorial contest was a
nlp-and-tuck affair. A Roosevelt
supporter took over the lead for
the Democratic gubernatorial
nomination after trailing a critic
of the administration through
out the early count.
Count Slowed
A delay In the count of New
York's American labor ballots
slowed up returns on the intra
party strife between the so
called pro-Roosevelt right wing
and the anti-third term left
wing. The outcome of this battle
was patched closely for possible
clues to sentiment on the third
term, for AP votes added 275.
000 to Mr. Roosevelt's state
totals in 1936.
Early returns, all from New
York and vicinity, gave a slight
lead to the faction supporting
Mr. Roosevelt.
Among congressional incumb
ents to win renomination in New
York was Rep. Hamilton Fish,
who was again the Republican
choice in the 26th district which
he has represented since 1916.
The president's Hyde Park home
is in the district.
The Massachusetts primary's
outstanding contest was for the
Democratic gubernatorial nomi
nation and Attorney General
Paul D. Dever, one of the party's
best vote-pullers in the state
won It handily over Francis E.
Kelly, former lieutenant gover
nor. For the U. S. senate nomi
nation. Senator Walsh, the in
cumbent, was unopposed on the
Democratic ticket, and Henry
Parkman, former Boston corpo
ration counsel, was the unchal
lenged Republican choice.
