The disclosure that Mussolini
had talked by telephone with High
Commissioner de Bono of. Eritrei

the nation tense. ,
The war spirit was heightened
by the departure of 6.000 Black-

sons-, forjEast Africa. ,
Authoritative sources said there
was a likelihood that East African j

Johnson And

Balloted For
JACKSON Miss.. Aug. 27—</P>—
Mississippi's democrats, a welter of
vituperation ringing in their ears,
voted today to decide whether Paul
B. Johnson > i Hattiesburg or Hugh
L. White o' Columbia ^ould tie
governor. %
The personalities of the candi
dates were almost submerged in
the mud-slinging * campaign into
which were drawn the names of
President Kooseve’t and Huey
lying. Mississippi’s 'fiery junior
senator. Theo G. Bilbn, raised po-
litical thunder with 27 speeches in
bhaif of White spending' most ot
his oratory <>n Huey lying.
Bilbo said Long was supporting
Johnson-—a < barge Johnson vig-
orously td- nii d—in the hope of ex-
tending his Louisiana dictatorship
to Mississippi.
Bilbo also said the primary
marked the opening of President
Roosevelt':: campaign for reelec-
tion because of the activity of Lung
his bitter enemy.
Shortly af'.er the first primary
three weeks ago, in which Johnson
led White by several hundred vot-
es in a tieldo of live candidates,
Long announced he would takp
no part in the second primary be»
cause neither of .the candidates be-
lieved in his share-the-wealth pro-
gram.
Johnson declared that Bilbo him-
self, was living to become dicta-
tor of Mis i ippi.
Several sti.te offices and hund-
reds of county and local offices
were at stake. Democratic nom-
ination is equivalent to election in
Mississippi.
