Shaw on Ohio outlook
Secretary of the Treasury Shaw returned to Washington from Ohio where he spoke in Portsmouth and Youngstown. He said he could not give a reliable analysis of Ohio politics due to limited speaking. Senator Sneck, running the Republican campaign, predicted a GOP victory with Gav Herrick and the state ticket elected, a view Shaw did not challenge. He then went back to Virginia for a couple more speeches to address voters in Alexandria.
