HIJEY AGAIN Mississippi's gubernatorial runf campaign, which took place :sterday, was largely waged on 1 outside issue?"Kingfish" Hur Long, dictator of neighboring i| nainder of r shouse OT .TN A Fri., Sept. 6 m mtchfield 3 - ORT PILOT, SOUTHPORT, Louisiana. Hugh L. White, of Columbia, based his campaign on anti-Long issues, stressing the point that the "Kingfish" favored his opponent, Paul B. Johnson. Johnson denied vehemently all, and repudiated any obligation that Long should be discussed to the Louisiana senator. The runoff yesterday, of which the results are not yet officially tallied, definitely marked a settlement of the dispute, since in Mississippi nomination of a gubernatorial candidate is tantamount to election. CONGRESS QUITS An almost exhausted national legislature adjourned yesterday, bringing to a close one of the most remarkable sessions in the history of the United States. The Senate closed its session at midnight on Monday, while the House brought its business to a hilarious climax at 12:09 a. m. Tuesday with Representative Connery of Massachusetts playing the trombone in the 13-piece navy band which he imported to celebrate. Representative Buchanan, of Texas, chairman of the House appropriations committee, assisted with somewhat erratic snaredrumming. Even the House galleries joined in the fun, singing with the band such old favorites as "The Banks of the Wabash," "Sweet Rosie O'Grady," and "Madelon." ANOTHER FUSS As Ethiopia and Italy approached a crisis in their relations, the United States and Rus sia Monday were not on the best( of terms. The Soviet union re-J fused to make any reply to the! assertion that communist activities in America may be traced j to Russia. Although Washington j has made official protest in re- j gard to what the United States j considers interference in her in- j ternal affairs, the Russian gov-j emment has made no direct response to the complaint Alexander Troyanovsky, Soviet ambassador, however, bluntly contends that anti-Soviet propaganda in the United States greatly over-balances communist agitation lere. WATERSPOUT FATAL At least six persons were kill- j ad and more than 50 injured early Sunday night when a huge tvaterspout invaded the harbor at j Genoa, Italy. The spout, which j appeared during an electrical j storm, swept into the harbor and reduced the waterfront section to j i mass of tangled wreckage, demolishing wharves and electric cranes, and tearing vessels from their moorings. Members of the city fire department located the six dead and "carried injured to lospitals. GENTLE HINT By way of a polite warning to A.ustria Italy, despite her divisons in East Africa, can still re- j eel an invasion, Premier Benito j Vlussolini Sunday instituted a <K3CM3tK3tM3CK3C3C3(3C3t3t3 SUMMEI ?A' j Army & K Wilmingtx ALL SUMMER I BEING CLOSED SPEC One lot of men's t merly sold as hi, now SPEC Summer pants, incl stripes and chec for $1.98, being c at Special low pric clothes, shoes, boo Now Is Ti Full Weight, Genui WATERP TARPA1 WILMII Army & N "Satisfaction 20 Market St. IwiKKKmmtmitMKi t i N.

Armed forces 150,000 strong engaged in mock combat almost within a stone's throw of the boundary which divides Austria from Italy. Simultaneously with the Bolzano maneuvers, 350,000 additional troops went into action along other Italian fronts. TWAIN MEETS James Stewart, of Berkley, California, apparently disbelieves Kipling's poetic statement concerning the Orient and the Occident. Stewart has recently been ordained a Buddhist priest, believing that more westerners will adopt the faith in the future. The four-year course which leads to j the priesthood is designated to give the initiate control over his j emotions. He adheres to the middle path, declaring that too much holiness has done much to kill religion. GO PHILOSOPHICAL A department of philosophy will be a new feature at the woman's college of the University of North Carolina this year, it was announced Friday. Dr. Kurt Rosinger, who received his degree of doctor of philosophy from Harvard University, will head the new department. Dr. Rosinger has been a research fellow at Harvard, has taught at Princeton, and comes to Womans College from the faculty of Columbia University. The department is the third recently added to the curriculum of the Greensboro institution. PARTIAL VICTORY The corner-stone was laid in the mausoleum of ill-gained utility fortunes Thusday when an energetic Senate and stubborn party leaders forced through a rebellious House a "compromise" version of the much discussed Wheeler-Rayburn utilities bill. The measure, which was originally designed as a death sentence to the "holding company" racket, new j nvnnrvtn Inforrra to/^ nnmnonihd Hr?_ ! UlVVglUWU ?" ing business in a concentrated area. Holding companies not conforming to specifications will be summarily outlawed. HONOR POST AND ROGERS A national demonstration occurred Thursday afternoon as last rites were held in Beverly Hills for Will Rogers and in Oklahoma City for Wiley Post. More than 12,000 theatres observed two minutes of silence as funeral services for Rogers began; planes trailing black setramers flew over many cities as a last tribute to the intrepid Post; Silence weighed heavy on the Iowa state fair, scene of one of Rogers' most [ popular screen portrayals; and all over the nation flags flew at half mast for the hearty, homely humorist and the taciturn, daring airman who died in an airplane crash at Point Barrow, Alaska.
