UPTON SINCLAIR: HUGE MAJORITY F. PERRY

VICTORY FOR THE

"EPIC" PLAN

SOCIALIST THEORIST'S NEXT MOVE ·

COORDINATION WITH NEW DEAL!

(SPECIAL TO “TELEGRAPH”)

(By Telegraph. Copyright Telegraphis Messages Ordinanco, 1840. Received, August 30, 10.02 a.m.)

Los Angeles, Aug. 29.

A sensationally easy victory for Upton Sinclair, world-famous Socialist novelist, in the hectic race for the Democratic nomination for the Governorship of California, is conceded by all his opponents.

With four-fifths of the votes counted, he has a lead which is virtually incapable of effective reduction.

The sensation of the day, however, has been fürnished by a statement of Mr. Upton Sinclair soon after his nomination became assured.

He announced that he is proceeding to Washington to explain his EPIC Plan to President Roosevelt in an effort to coordinate the Plan with the New Deal. Sinolair retains his advantage of

Rye, Aug. 29.

It is revealed that a highly attractive offer has been made to F. J. Perry to turn professional and that it has been definitely turned down.

The offer was made by "Bill" O'Brien, the manager of the so- called Tilden Troupe, and consist- ed of an outright payment of U.S.$50,000 on the signing of a contract, and a share of gate re- ceipts in matches in the pro- fessional sphere.
