JTAGE EIGHT SAYS DOUGHTON TO OPPOSE REYNOLDS FOR SENATE SEAT Winston-Saiem Journal Writer i Says Veteran Representative Will Seek to Wrest Senatorial' Toga From Hob Reynolds;! Says Information Source is; "Unquestionable" Congressman Robert L. D ought on. ; ninth district representative, is go- i ing oat after Bob Reynolds' scalp i: J the primaries next summer, says , Johr A. Parris. Jr.. in a spec-il j copyrighted story appearing in the j Winston-Salem Journal Tuesday. Ac- ] cm ' jig to Mr. Parris. the news that i "Farmer Bob" really wants T.o go to j the senate comes from f unimpeach- j abie* sources He says: : Representative Robert L "Farm- j er Bob" Doughton will be a candi date for the "United States senate in j tflSS. the Journal learned from an j ur.impeachable source last night. The veteran congressman has decided, according- to the Journal's inform ant. to oppose Robert R. "Our Bob" Reynolus for the junior senate pest Doughton will make a formal arnouncement of his candidacy sometime in November, it is understood. It is believed Doughton "ong has' harbored the ambition to ran for the United States senate as a last fling! iti politics before retirement. Always silent about his future plans, the 7t-year-old chairman of the house ways and means committee most important of all congres- j sional chairmanships consistently j Has refused to affirm or deny ru- \ mors of his candidacy. It is generally known that. Boughton has approval from the White House in practically anything he uwd< rtakes. A little more than a year ago j when he seriously considered an-j n UiiCihg as a candidate for governor i of North Carolina. Bought on was | called to the While House for a cor.- i f'crence where he was told his serv sees were needed urgently As a result. he announced he would not he a gubernatorial candidate. As a spearhead in the Roosevelt administration, Doughton. if he were elected to the United States senate, would doubtless command an important position in the upper legislative body. bM Meantime, Reynolds, who has announced his candidacy for re-election, is making- speeches and covering all the territory in the state he possibly can. As one of the speakers at the State Convention of Young Democrats here this week, Reynolds will rub elbows with Dough ton. who nas announced his intention of attci ding* the gathering. Going into the senate on the turn ?f .1:1 era that of prohibition?Reynolds has had easy sailing through his sue years as junior senator from North Carolina. Last week odds were 5 to 1 that the man who drove an automobile around the world would have no opposition in the n.xt Jul primary. Rut today there was creeping into pxuture rumors oi opposition, from all sides. Representative Frank Hancock of Oxford, and Representative Walter Lambeth, of Thoniasvilie. also are being: talked as possible ca?ididates in the senatorial race. It is not considered likely either Hancock or Lambeth will choose to run if Doughton announces his candidacy. Long noted for hard work, Doughtor. without doubt would enter the senatorial campaign with more fervor than he has ever before shown in his long political career. It is understood Doughton will go to Washington within the next few weeks to confer with President Roosevelt regarding a special session of congress, expected to be called before the first of the year. A potent political factor in North Carolina, the tall, lanky, sturdy Doughcon went to congress first in 1911. Just as potent he is in national politics. The chairmanship of the ways and means committee has been a particularly arduous task under President Roosevelt because much of Lie administration legislation was nurtured there. He has a record of never having had an amendment offered to one of his bills from the ficor of the house during his 26 years of legislative service.
