James M. Tucker, former secretary of state, will be discharged from. the Navy on March 15, and shortly thereafter probably will announce his candidacy for the Re-Publican nomination for United States Senator, it was learned today. The Navy officials on February 15 decided that he was physically incapacitated for further service as a lieutenant, junior grade, but he will not be released until March 1, according to word received from Washington. Lieut.

Tucl-er suffered an arm wound at the battle of Salerno, Italy, and he was evacuated to this country several months ago. When physicians also discovered that he was suffering from a serious case of asthma, he was sent to a Naval hospital at Memphis, Tenn. This decision of Naval authorities will affect the Iloosier political situation vitally. To date, Homer E. Capehart, Indianapolis war manufacturer, farmer and host to the 1938 cornHeld conference which started the G.

O. P. national congressional campaign that year, has been the only aspirant for the senatorial nomination. Backed By Wright. With, Tucker in the contest, interesting developments are expected.

Tucker, whose political home is Salem, is backed by Burrell Wright, Indianapolis attorney and former State committee treasurer. Wright is allied closely with Ewing Emiscn of Vincennes, who was dethroned as Seventh district committee member by Capehart, who still holds that office. Capehart's political residence is his farm near Washington, which is in the Seventh District. Hence, through Tucker, Emison and Wright may be able to obtain revenge for Emison's defeat several years ago. The position of Ralph F.

Gates, of Columbia City, state chairman, may be affected by the development. Gates has been allied with Wright and Emison, but recently has shown friendship for Capehart. Gates is an active candidate for the gubernatorial nomination. A report that Tucker might seek the nomination for the appellate court has been weakened by the recent events. WANTED!
