from four states won renomination or held leads in returns today from primary elections. Hiram W. Johnson of California, ranking Republican on the senate foreign relations committee, obtained not only his own party's nomination, on the basis of incomplete and unofficial returns, but apparently that of the Democrats and progressives as well. Califorlaw permits a candidate to seek nominations of parties other than his own. For the Republican nomination, Johnson polled 323,931 votes in 8,715 out of 13,540 precincts; Lieutenant Governor Ellis E.

Patterson got 30,334, and Assemblyman Samuel W. Yorty 19,567. In the Democratic contest, 8,684 gave Johnson precincts, 103,735: John Anson Ford Yorty James D. Meredith and Richard S. Otton, primarily a Progressive, 9.424.

Incumbents Win Most, if not California's members of the house appeared assured of renomination. In Mississippi, Senator Theodore G. Bilbo won Democratic nomination for a second term. It was the equivalent of re-election in that predominantly Democratic state. He was opposed by former Governor Hugh White.

In the only contested representative's race, A. L. Ford. the incumbent, won. Incomplete South Carolina returns gave renomination to five representatives who had opposition and there, too, nomination is tantamount 1 to election.

Mendel Rivers, young Charleston attorney, apparently defeated Alfred H. Vonkolnitz to succeed Rep. Clara G. McMillan, who did not. seek renomination.

Two Arkansas representatives appeared to have won in another state where Democratic nomination is as good as election. They were E. C. Gathings and W. F.

Norrell, the only two representatives involved in the second primary held in races where no candidate received a clear majority in the first.
