Big Three Discuss Russian Threat Umstead And Olive Debating Issues RALEIGH —(W-r- Candidates in the North Carolina gubernatorial primary Saturday continued their battle on ‘record” issues today. William B. Umstead stuck up for the right of the people to seek legislation, which his opponent Hubert Olive has called "lobby ing” when he talked of Umstead’s activities. Umstead, in a radio speech last night, pointed to his record in the House and Senate on rural electri fication. He reminded that the people have a constitutional right to petition legislatives bodies. “1 do not think my opponent intended to deny this right of the people when he made his speech,” said Umstead. “So I have forgiven my opponent. I know that under, the stress and strain of a losing battle he permitted someone to goad him into stepping out of character and indulging in some careless talk. Such talk from my opponent must have been uttered in a moment of desperation.” Umstead said he did not vote to kill the Rural Electrification Act despite “another bit of . careless talk being circulated.” “I voted for the bill which created (Continued on wage two) 1 — She Jlaihj Jt)mrrd McCarty Elected Florida Governor MIAMI (IP) Dan McCarty, a tall, bespectacled cattle and citrus man from Fort Pierce, will be the next governor of Florida.

Odham, who trailed by 120,000 votes in the first pri mary three weeks ago, cut that margin to an indicated 40,000 or less on his second try. Returns from 1,518 of the state’s -.683 precincts gave McCarty 324,- 534 votes and Odham 306,176. In the first primary, Odham got 232,565 votes and McCarty 361,427. DUNN, N.

He completed his course with Coyne in 1935. He then took a position with Electric Motor and Repair.
