DEMOCRATS WIDEN
MARGIN IN STATE
(JOP Loses Two Seats In
House, One In Senate In
Tuesday’s Voting
RALEIGH, Nov. 6. —(&)— Un
official and incomplete returns
compiled here Wednesday indicat
, in North Carolina the Dem
ocratic party may have reversed
,.c national trend by reducing even
.['other the Republican minorities
in*the state legislature.
jn the 1945 General assembly,
the Republicans held 14 of 120 seats
(he House of Representatives
j d 3 of 50 seats in the Senate.
Although some of the Democratic
victories were by extremely nar
ovf margins and will be in doubt

the Republicans took four Demo
cratic seats, a net gain of two
seats for the Democrats.
In the Senate, an indicated vic
tory by Wade C. Browr, Boone
Democrat, over N. C. Jones, Re
publican, yould reduce the number
of Republican Senators to two.
The Democrats apparently wrest
ed seats from Republicans in the
counties of Davie, Alexander,
Ashe, Randolph, Transylvania,
and Clay, while Republicans won
Democratic seats in Alamance,
McDowell, Tyrrell and Davidson.
Big Surprise
One of the biggest surprises to
the Democrats came in Alamance
county, which went Republican for
the first time since the Hoover
landslide of 1928. John Linwood
Hatl, Burlington Republican was
swept into the legislature over
George A. Long, Graham Demo
crat.
The Republicans also elected Wil
liam C. Chambers of Marion in
McDowell. Thomas W. Shallington
of Columbia in Tyrrell, and J. Eu
gene Snyder of Lexington in Da
vidson.
The Democrats won Republican
seats on the basis of victories by
M. Luke Gwaltney, Jr., of Taylors
ville, in Alexander. J. O. Belvins
of Lanshing in Ashe, H. M. Moore
of Hayesville in Clay. Knox John
ston of Mocksville in Davie, the
Rev. J. I. Memory of Randleman
in Randolph, and Marvin L. Gil
lespie in Transylvania.
bome ox the races were decided
by extremely narrow margins.
Odell Williamson, Shallotte Demo
crat, led Bonnie D. Phelps, Re
publican of Supply, by only three
votes — 2207 to 2204 — in Bruns
wick county, and Mrs. G. W. Cover.
Andrews Democrat, had a lead of
only 20 votes over Bruce West,
Andrews Reoublican, in Cherokee.
Close Race
A close fight was being waged
in Sampson for a seat now held by
the Republicans. James H. Ciifton,
Clinton Republican, was leading
W. T. Britt, Clinton Democrat., by
4,205 to 3,332 on returns from six
of 21 precincts.
