Proctor Forecast Sees Victory In Missouri Race
A. C. Ferris, state manager of the Proctor-For-Senator Club, predicts David M. Proctor will win the Republican nomination for U S senator. He bases his forecast on Missouri’s 1920 prohibition vote and observer reports, saying Northeast Missouri aids a 2 to 1 Proctor edge while the Ozarks mostly favor him except Polk and Taney. St Louis may yield about one third Republican votes, contributing to the nomination.
