Waxes In Montana Today
B7 The Associated Pre.1
A dlng-donc ballot battle was
under way In Montana today
(Tuesday) with Senator Burton
K. Wheeler"! campaign manager
predicting he would win demo
cratic renomination by a close
margin.
Primary elections also were
being aettled today in Wyoming,
Arizona and Arkansas. Georg
ians vote tomorrow in a boiling
contest marked by "white
upremacy" cry.
President Truman wrote
Wheeler a letter which he said
he hoped would stop "the smear
campaign against Burt Wheeler."
The senator's opponent is Lief
Erickson, former Montana su
preme court Justice, who drew
the support of James Roosevelt,
ton of the late president.
With a moderately heavy vote
of about 125,000 forecast. Wheel
er's campaign chairman, Bailey
Sortz, predicted victory by
about 15,000 votes.
"An Erickson victory by 20,
000 votes" was the forecast from
Erickson's camp.
Senators Investigating
A special senate committee is
investigating campaign expendi
tures as a result of Wheeler's
protest that "unfair propaganda,
financed by New York and
Hollywood money" had been in
jected into the contest
Other issues revolved largely
around international affairs and
the railroad strike, with Erick
son contending the four-term
senator had tried "to put shackles
of slavery on labor."
In Wyoming, the principal con
test was to choose a republican
nominee to oppose Gov. Lester C.
Hunt, who was not challenged
for democratic renomination.
The republican contenders are
former Gov. Nels H. Smith and
State Treasurer Earl Wright.
Senator O'Malioney, democrat,
and Rep. Frank Barrett, repub
lican, were unopposed.
Arisona Votes Also
Arizonans climax an indiffer
ent campaign by choosing be
tween Senator Ernest W. Mc
Farland and Harry J. Valentine,
Phoenix attorney, for the demo
cratic senatorial nomination.
The state's two democratic
representatives, John R. Mur
dock and Richard F. Harless,
have only one challenger Al
bert H. MacKenzie, Prescott
lawyer. I
Democrats in two Arkansas
congressional districts decide t
the democratic primary bids of'
war veteran candidates for the
seats held by Reps. Brooks
Hays and Oren Harris. Hays is
opposed by Parker Parker and
Homer F. Berry, and Harris by
Paul Gercn and Bruce Bennett.
Georgia's democratic primary
tomorrow is a four-way battle
for the governorship nomination,
with former Gov. Eugene Tal-
madge raising the white su
premacy" issue and warning
wise negroes to stay away
from the polls. He is opposed
by James V. Carmichael, former
Gov. E. D. Rivers, and Hoke
O'Kelley. Carmichael has Die
backing of Gov. Ellis Arnall.
Collision Results
In Trip To Convos
OCEAN PARK, Calif., July 1
(P) Chico Garces of Mexico
City hit the canvas three times
in three rounds last night but
still managed to get a "technical
draw" with Minneapolis' Al Er
win. Referee Benny Whitman
couldn't do anything else with
the fight because Garces' third
trip to the canvas resulted from
his collision with Erwin. The
two battlers simply collided
while charging at each other
for an exchange of blows. Gar
ces had been floored in the first
for a count of eight and for a
nine-count in the second.
Erwin, 131, was far ahead on
points in the scheduled 10
rounder. Garces came in at
1291.
EYE IN TAIL
A Harvard scientist has dis
covered that the crawfish has an
eye in its tail. The new-found
eye is sensitive to light, but sees
much more slowly than the eyes
in the crawfish's head.

OPA Workers
May Lose Pay
WASHINGTON, July 18 (A)
Nearly 50 per cent of OPA's
34,000 workers face the prospect
of half-pay this week. And
there's a possibility the rest may
get none when next week's pay
rolls around.
This may precipitate a crisis
on whether the agency can hold
its staff together while legisla
tion to revive price controls is
pending.
Thus fur congress has tnken no
final action on OPA's appropria
tion for the fiscal year willed
began July 1. It may by tho
week's end. but that won't avert
delays in pay checks.
Scheduled to receive checks
tomorrow and the rest of this
week are about 15,000 OPA field
workers. They are assured of
at least half of what they have
coming because part of the pay
period covers the last week of
June.
But there Is virtually no
chance at all, according to OPA
budge officials, that they can bo
paid on time for the first week
of July.
'There is scarcely possibil
ity that congress will act before
the end of the week," said one
official. "That means a delay
of at least a few days on the
second patch of checks."
A week from tomorrow. July
24. is the regular pay day for
all other OPA employes about
3400 in Washington and another
15.000 in the field. These al
ready have been paid in full for
work in June.
OPA figures that unless the
appropriation bill is through con
gress by Friday, it will be im
possible to pay these 18.400
workers on time. That means
they would get no pay at all
when it's due.
Ancient peoples believed that
the sun traveled around tile
earth.
