expressed his approval OF the action
Of Senator German in making the race
issue the paramount question In The
Maryland campaign. In speaking OF
the subject. Mr.. Jones said: Il think
that Senator German and his asso-
ciates who are interested in Dcmocra-
tic success in the Maryland campaign
made no mistake in giving prominence
to the race question. as distinguished
by attitudes between the two parties.
Mr.. German is perfectly right in as
snming that the race question IS one OF
the NEST important before the people
OF this country at this time. II is a

considerable extent in the national
campaign next year. 1t will certainly
be given prominence then. when tn,
Republican and Democratic candidates
