(International Newsreel) MOB OWES 10 BAILEY HDS Raleigh Candidate for Senate Lists Expenditures and Receipts Of $7,963. Raleigh.—Josiah William Bailey, entering the semi-final of the chum pionship match, reported expendi tures for the senate, and Cameron Morrison, former governor, tops the William Gibbs McAdoo gift to the Simmons campaign by $1,000. Mr. Morrison chips in $2,000. But the most significant of the contributions is the first in the list, as it was indeed the first to be made. Mrs. W. N. Janes, sister of Mr. Bailey, gave $100. The contri bution will be a silencer. The subt lest campaign report of the season has been that representing Mrs. Jones as opposed to her brother. It is one of the 1928 carry-over. In that campaign, though Mrs. Jones’ son, William Bailey Jones, .was a red-hot Smith man coming and go ing, Mrs. Jones was advertised as a Hoover speaker. She did not speak and specifically declined to make any campaign addresses for either side. The inference was inevitable that she supported Mr. Simmons. She is not helping Mr. Simmons, who also supported Mr. Hoover by speech and advice. Her interest in her brother's cause will not be doubt eri longer. McLean Was Missing. It is significant that while Gov ernor Morrison puts in the Bailey tund one-fifth of that allowed for campaign expenditures. Governor A W. McLean's name does not appear among the honors of the Simmons campaign. The Bailey men, however do not account this a favoring cir cumstance. They have rated from the very first the support of Mr. McLean to the Simmons cause as the most powerful prop the senator will have. RUTHERFORD COUNTY MUTES MED No Bark Horses File in Contest.
