Gem State Setback Saps
Joy From New Deal
Wins Elsewhere.
(By The AHSOclntcd Press)
' James P. Pope of Idaho be
came today the second adminis
tration senator to go down in
defeat this year before a demo
cratic primary opponent.
He conceded Rep. D. Worth
Clark, an avowed conservative,
had beaten him in yesterday's
democratic bailottlng In which
new deal support was the main
issue. .
The only comparable case waa
that of Sen. Herbert E. Hitch
cock of South Dakota who lost
his primary race to former Gov.
Tom Berry, a Roosevelt sup
porter with conservative lean
ings. , . .
Bulkier Wins
Pope's defeat tempered con
siderable the Joy of administra
tion lieutenants over Sen. Robert
J. Bulkley's smashing victory
over former-Gov. George White
in Ohio. Bulkley had President
Roosevelt's personal support.
Pope had been supported by
Postmaster General Farley, who
spoke for him, and had been
openly and recently defended by
Secretary Hull for his reciprocal
trade treaty stand.
In the third senatorial race.
Sen. Hattte W. Caraway of Ar
kansas, another whom the presi
dent called "friend" on his east
ern trip, apparently bad a Bate
margin over her nearest oppo
nent, Rep. John L. McClellan.
The Ohio vote assured demo
cratic renomlnation of Sen. Rob
ert J. Bulkley who, with 7498
precincts out of 8601 reported,
had tallied 428.419 votes to 176,-
623 for former Gov. George
White. Bulkley was praised by
Mr. Roosevelt v.-hen the latter
visited Marietta early last month
on his way west. '
Ohio republicans, balloting la
smaller numbers than the demo
crats, apparently nominated Rob
ert A. Taft, son of the late presi
dent, to run against Bulkley in
November. In 7816 precincts,
out of 8601 Taft had 281,614
votes and Arthur H. Day. 203,-
487.
Hattie Way Ahead
In Arkansas Sen. Hattie Cara
way, who like Bulkley received
public commendation from the
president, was slowly pulling
ahead of her nearest opponent.
Ren. John L. McClellan. The
count for 1523 precincts of 2002
gave Caraway 76,351 nnd Mq
Clellan 71,640.
Because ot President Roose
