SHOTS ARE FIRED
IN THEFT ATTEMPT
An exchange of shots following the
theft of a calf is being investigated by
county detectives. Edward Warfield of
White township, reported that at 3 o’-
clock a. m., Wednesday a neighbor,
Ralph McConnell, awakened him and
declared there was some one in the
Warfield barn. Warfield asserted that
he and McConnell went to the barn
where they heard someone prowling
around, but the invader escaped.
The two men then entered a car and
went in search of the intruder. War-
field asserted that he and McConnell
heard a shot from a nearby woods.
Leaving the car he found the calf
with its right leg shot off.
Again the two men, according to
| Warfield, went on the trail of the
culprit. McConnell, then according to
the story told the county detectives,
saw two men, who fired at him and he
returned the fire, firing four time
from a .25 caliber automatic pistol. No
one was injured.
Failing to catch the culprits McCon-
nell and Warfield according to the lat-
ter, then returned and killed the calf.
No clue has been found of the alleged
robbers.
G. O. P. PROPOSES TO
AMEND THE ELECTION
LAWS IN THE STATE
Harrisburg—Amendments to the
1937 legislature’s huge codification of
election laws to prevent a candidate
defeated at the primary from running
—
in the general election on a third par- |
ty ticket, were introduced in the sen-
ate by Elections ‘Committee Chair-
man, Lewis E. Farrell of Philadelphia.
The situation to be avoided in the
amendment has never arisen since the
election code was adopted but the pos-
sibility that it might was uncovered
after the bitter Democratic guberna-
torial primary last year.
The code requires all partie not par-
ticipating in the primary to file its
preemption papers and nominations
before the primary but it does not
prevent substitution of a candidate de-
feated for major party nomination for
a preempted candidate who might
withdraw,
A third party, the Pathfinders, was
preempted before the 1938 primary
and all its candidates but one later
withdrew. If the preemptors had ag-
reed, defeated candidates for Demo-
cratic or Republican nominations could
have made a three way fight of the
election at which Arthur H. James
was chosen Governor. None of these
candidates choose to do so.
Other election code amendments
would permit any “qualified” voter to
assist another voter instead of only an
election official and permit a candi-
date who has been certified by the
Secretary of the Commonwealth and
County Election Board as elected, to
serve pending adjucation of any con-
tests of his apparant majority.
