DALLAS, Texas, July 24.— Ferguson was leading Culber-
■ son for second place by 16,289 in the senatorial contest when
the Texas Election Bureau suspended tabulating returns
from Saturday’s democratic primary for the night. It now
seems certain that he will be in the run-off with Earle B.
Mayfield August 26. Ferguson gained steadily in the re-
turns beginning about noon and gained almost as many votes
as did Mayfield, who is conceded first place. Four hundred
and fifty-five thousand votes have been accounted for in
returns from 238 counties, including 49 complete. The num-
ber of outstanding votes is uncertain, with the probability
that the total will not go above 650,000.

Governor Neff is renomi- "

NEW YORK. July 24 — The
wholesale closing of steel plants
throughout the country and especi-
ally those in the east, which here-
tofore have not been affected by
the fuel shortage, will result if the
coal strike is not settled before
August, the head of a large steel
corporation declared today.
Further falling off of operations
among steel plants caused grave
poncern at their New York corpo-
ration headquarters.
Officials of the Bethlehem Steel
company announced they had
banked fires and discontinued pro-
duction at two of their largest fur-
naces with the resultant Iom of em-

Administration advisers who fav-

that President Harding should de-

make every effort to restore inter-

extent of abandoning their stand
on the seniority issue. The dis-
putants would later be expected to
come together on the matter of a

Members of the board which la

their preliminary discusnions today
over the probable effect upon the
morale of the army nf the sus-
pended Hentence now hanging over
the head’of practically every officer
in the servfce.
Banco for such authority would be
the duty ••entrusted” to the chief
executive under the constitution.
President Has Power.
The presiden, it is understood,
has been assured that his authority
for decisive action, without recourse
of congress, is without question.
Two courses would be open to
him in order physically to operate
the railroads, it was said. At first
he could request the strikers to
return to work under the govern-
ment operation at the old wage
scale and wth seniority rights re-
stored. If this failed, then federal
troops could be called upon to as-
sure operation of the trains.
Seniority Is issue.
The first course, the president is
understood to believe, would be ac-
ceptable to the strikers, who would
see in it the capitulation of the rail-
road executives and a victory won
for labor. The chief contention of
the strikers, it was said, has de-
veloped into a fight for seniority,
with the wage dispute becoming
subordinate.
There is little disposition in gov-
ernment circles to consider meet-
ing the emergency by actually put-
ting the lines under government
operation. Powers given the Inter-
state commerce commssion in the
transportation act were cited as
making this step unnecessary.
Terms of the act make it clear, it
was said, that this body in any
transportation emergency might
suspend all railroad rules and regu-
lations governing car service, in-
terchange of equipment and facili-
ties as between roads and create
such emergencies as it found neces-
sary to enforce its rulings.
The sweeping grant of authority
would be first used in connection
with the coal distribution plan, but
official opinion exisited that it
might be extended to deal with
other phases of the transportation
situation.

State ranger captains. com-
manding ranger companies, most
of which are stationed at border
points, were given instructions
by telephone and telegraph yes-

A report made in Wichita Falls

May Not Use Troops. —
Troops will not be used by the
state as authorized by the open
port law, so long as ranger units
are able to cope with the situation,
it was stated. Even if troops
should be found necessary, they may
probably be used without the de-
claration of martial law, under
authority given the governor in the
"open port" law, it has been pointed
out.
The ranger companies have a
total strength of 47 men it was
stated at the adjutant general's of-
fice under orders of the governor
the companies will be recruited to
such strength .as is considered
necessary to deal with the protec-
tion of life and property in the
strike centers.

1AS ANGELES, July 24 — Edna
Wallace Hopper is telling the
world how to be a flapper at 62,
She ought to know. Fur shea 62,
looks 30. weighs 98 pounds, wears
knee-length skirts, and hasn't a
bit of gray in her bobbed brown
hair
"I‛m touring the country." Miss
Hopper says, "to Impres on Amer-
Pan women that they ran, by tak-
ing care, extend the appearance
and spirit of their 'teens over into
the firties and sixties. I use my-
self as the example, and my mes-
gage is chtefly for the fihpper to
encourage her in her sensible van-
lly ”
• Miss Hopper who made her stage
debut in list six months ago got
tired of her old face and had a
svrgeon provide va new one by an
operation to remove sag by stretch-
ing.
"Despite all my care, a feu
wrinkles had appeared,” she said
as old as she looks."
Miss Hopper continues to work
at keeping young every day, so
age r«ii score no setback.
Here are sorhe of Mfss Hopper's
beauty hints:
"I never allow water to touch
face or hair. It hardens anti forms
wrinkles. Every morhins 1 annofnt
my body with oil then f bathe in
cold water: I never take a hot
bath
"I advise powdering the fare and
change in the course of the klan in
recent months," Governor David-
aon derlared, "and a noticeable dis-
continuance of tar and feather par-
ties charged against the klan.”
Results of ths ciection, ’ he dr-
Flared. should cause klan leaders
and members to still further
strengthen their eclared adher-
enceto the enforcement of law
through the state's sworn bfficers.
