CONCORD, N. H. March 11. — (UP) — Near-complete returns indicated early today that Roosevelt-pledged candidates won a sweeping victory in yesterday’s New Hampshire presidential primaries— first in the nation.
Returns from approximately three-fourths of the state gave New Deal candidates virtually unbeatable leads over those unpledged and those pledged to Dr. Joseph A. Coutremarsh of Lebanon.
Republican candidates were unpledged. but those who expressed personal preference for Frank Knox, Chicago and Manchester publisher, rolled up substantial margins over Eliot A. Carter of Nashua, who was favorable to Gov. Alf M. Landon of Kansas. Carter Was trailing far behind.
Eight Votes for Roosevelt Tabulations showed that eight delegates-at-large and four district delegates would go to the Philadelphia convention with a total of eight New Hampshire votes for President Roosevelt. Delegates-at-large have half a vote each and district delegates one vote each.
At the same time, it was virtually certain that the seven Republican delegates-at-large and the four district delegates would go to the Cleveland convention with 11 unpledged votes, but favorable to Knox. Each Republican delegate has one vote.
The four unpledged Democratic candidates fell behind early in the voting and their deficit grew as returns poured in from the larger cities and towns.
Opposition Trails Three Courtremarsh-pledged candidates trailed the unpledged candidates. Coutremarsh, 61-year-old retired dentist, had sought the Democratic presidential nomination on a platform which included a *30,000,000,000 paper money and silver issue, old age pension, and abolition of capital punishment.
In the Republican balloting. Gov. H. Styles Bridges was leading, while former Gov. Huntley N. Spaulding and Congressman Charles W. T0-bey trailed in that order.
Balloting was fairly heavy, compared with previous New Hampshire presidential primaries. Spring-like weather and a factional fight among Democrats over New Deal policies combined to bring out voters in greater numbers than usual.

The money was given to him by a man with the initials of “E. B.” (name withheld pending investigation), who said, according to Pastori: “The police are damned fools looking for the man who kidnapped the Lndbergh baby, when the kidnapper in on this very boat.”
Pastori is in Santiago, Chile, and Hoffman said tonight he would question him if Ue would return to this country. When informed that the affidatvit was on file, Attorney General David T. Wilentz said he favored turning it ever to the state police for investigation.
Pastori Has Suspicions
Pastori said the circumstance that accompanied and followed the embarkation of the passenger led him to suspect strongly an actual link with the abduction and murder of Charles A Lindbergh. Jr.
"The man seemed in a highly nervous and worried state,” the affidavit read. “He stated that he had arrived from New York by airplane. In view of the fact that L as purser, was authorized to sell passages in such cases I did sell him a first class ticket to Valparaiso.
“The man Immediately asked that he be accommodated in a cabin alone and soon after the sailing of the steamer he evinced a great interest in all details of the Lndbergh case which might be received in radio news bulletins reaching the ship and asked that he be furnished with all these news bulletins.
Suspect* Talks
“During some of our talks the man revealed to me that he haa been or was a drug smuggler, smuggling drugs from Italy to the United States. He revealed to me that he had purchased a farm in Chile, for the purpose of living on it.
“While the Santa Olivia was enroute to Callao, the man informed me that he desired to communicate with the Santa Clara which was following the Santa Olivia and determine whether a woman friend of his was on board and whether she was bringing certain funds with her. I arranged to send a message to the Santa Clara asking for this information and the reply from the Santa Clara was to the effect that the woman whose name the man gave me was not on board . .

Baldwin Gains Commons Fight Over Laborites
LONDON, March 10 —(U.R)— Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin’s government won a victory tonight when the house of commons, voting 378 to 155, rejected a laborite motion to censure the cabinet for its white paper on national defense.
Immediately afterward the commons, by a vote of 371 to 153. approved the national defense white paper.
Previously angry debate over Europe’s crisis flared in the commons.
“France is in no position to point the finger of scorn at Germany on the grounds of treaty breaking." Lloyd George, wartime prime minister, said.
Winston ChurchiU, Lloyd George said, drew this picture of Germany:
“She is today a single country without allies while in 1914 she had Austria as well as Turkey, who inflicted two severe defeats on us.”

GENEVA, March 10 —(U.R)—Sudden transfer of diplomatic bargaining over the European crisis to London tonight convinced the League of Nations that Prance has precipitated the long-awaited showdown with German ChanceUor Adolf Hitler.
Delegates who hurriedly consulted Paris and other capitals after the Locarno conferees and league council members were ordered to London for Thursday and Saturday said the British have been unable to break down French insistence that the league forget the Italo-Ethiopian conflict for the time being and take strong action, not strong words, against Germany.

League headquarters had completed preparations for Wednesday's now abandoned meeting of the committee of 13 when orders arrived from Paris to convene the councU in London Saturday.
Ten foreign ministers and other delegates en route to Geneva had to be halted and advised to proceed to London instead of Geneva.
