Discussion of selection of a na-' T tional Democratic executive commit- j it teeman for North Carolina to sue-1 r ceed former Governor O. Max Card-1 ner, resigned, was relegated to the [ background last week, only to come E forward again as a result of the visit -jf Guvcrr.cr Gardner Governor J. C. B. Ehringhaus over the week-j end, primarily to attend the CarolinaGeorgia Tech game at Chapel Hill Saturday, but undoubtedly to discuss | politics as well. f And the vacant place must have! 4 been considered by these two leaders. I 3 When Governor Gardner resigned, he j let it be known that he would favor j J. O. Carr, Wilmington, as his sue- ] j cessor, a man who apparently meets | ^ with approval of all factions, except j j possibly the followers of Senator K.1 l,!R. Reynolds. Belief is that Senator| . I Reynolds would not oppose him, if s { by so doing it would prevent the nam-1 . | ir.g of C. L. Shaping, Greensboro, the j . j campaign manager for Senator Bai-! _ ley. to the vacant post, t, Reports are going the rounds that i Mr. Shuping is at work for the place, | and probably with help from Senator Bailey. The State executive committee, which recommends to the nae tional committee, is thought to be sort t of pro Baiiey, and, if so, it will take j a combination of the other factions to e defeat him. But, it was said before 0 the selection of the State chairman jlthat Shaping had a majority of the j ' 136 members of the committee; hew_! ever. J. Wallace Winbome, selection of the Candidate Ehringhaus, was ' named. . ] Senator Reynolds, as a friendly ges, ture, suggested his defeated opponj; er>t, Cameron Morrison. Morrison t pushed the crown from him. He might t not the third time. If it were actually t offered. Julian Price, Greensboro mp surance company head, Chairman r Winborne, Senator Bailey, former j Governor A. W McLean, Clyde Hoey and others have been mentioned. J. O. Carr, Governor Ehringhaus a and Mr. Shuping may "be considered leaders, and it mivht wnri, way, but Chairman Winbome is ex-1 pected to wait at least a month bee fore calling the committee together. a It is possible, but not likely, that y the Ehringhaus-Gardner conference , might cause change in the time of meeting, now believed to be tentatively set for around December 1st.
