Speed Cop First to
Receive" Johnson as
He Invades Maryland

Senator Hiram Johnson's nrst
reception In Maryland yesterday
was by a speed cop.
shortly after the taxicab bear
ing the Senator and three asso-
ciates passed the Maryland line
on the Rockville pike. a motor
cycle policeman picked up the
trail and followed IL for three
miles.
There is an eighteen-mile speed
limit on the road and the Senator
was anxious 20 get there.
The speed-argus kept his eye
on his speedometer, and finally
swung up beside the Johnson car
and looked at II as IL about to
check IL for inquiries. Evidently
he got some word from the driver
as to who the passengers were,
for he spurred on beside an auto
mobile that was trying TO keep
out OF the way. Then he appar-
emily gave up the chase and
swung out OF the road at a black
smith shop In Bethesda.

being watched from the Capital is the
comparative standing of Senator
Hiram Johnson and Herbert Hoover
The battle OF New Jersey is con-
sidered no whit less interesting than
the Ohio one, from the Republican
point of view. But in the latter
state the principal bout is between
Senator Johnson and General Wood
Borah Sees Victory.
'Tt we can get out the Johnson
vote in New Jersey" Senator william
e. Borah, of Idaho, declared as he
was leaving for Indiana to continue
his fight for the California Senator
there I've will carry the State. That
Is the only doubtful thing about the
situation, to my mind. ] am positive
a big majority of the people of New
Jersey want Johnson, but an organiza
ton Is needed on election day in order
to bring out full vote.
In New Jersey, as in most OF the
other States where primaries have
been held. the dispute between the
contending factions has been acrid.
The Wood faction charged the john
son group with catering to tho pro-
German radical and foreign elements
generally.
The names of Wood and Johnson
are the only ones printed on the New
Jersey ballots Any other Republican
Presidential preference will have to
be written in.
After voting began today word
was received by telephone IN Wash
ington that both the Wood and
johnson factions claim the State.
In Massachusetts, none of the two
sets of Big Four candidates is down
on the ticket as pledged to any par
ticular presidential candidate. Some
arc known, however, as favorlne
Wood and some Hoover. while at
least one. Senator Henry Cabot
Lodge. has declared he stands ready
to present the name of Governor
Coolidge to the Chicago convention

State conventions to elect their del
egates to the Republican convention
which will add twenty-one to the
general total.
The results Of the Democratic prl-
marics today are not considered

attaches to the Republican returns
In Ohio, Governor James NJ. Cox Is

AMUNDSEN'S DASH
FOR POLE NOT
YET BEGUN

Indication that Roald Amund-
sen, arctic explorer, has not yet
made his dash for the North
Pole came to light yesterday
when the Carnegie Institute
here received a message from
Amundsen, dated March 70,
transmitted by naval eommuni-
cation, asking that parts for a
magnetic instrument be sent TO
him at Nome, Alaska. not later
than August 1.
Reports as to the location Of
Amundsen are somewhat con-
fused, and thus far il has been
impossible to trace back the
source of the message.

JOHNSON SWAPS HUGE
AUDIENCES In MARYLAND

CUMBERLAND, Md, April e.
Western Maryland yesterday gave
Senator Hiram johnson such r1cep-
tion as his most ardent admirers
would think fully adequate.
From Rockville, w.lere he spoke
shortly after Q o'clock in the morn
ing, to this place. he faced crowds
constantly increasing in size. which
listened carefully and frequently APP
pla uded when he demanded the end
OF what he termed the autocratic
powers exercised in Washington, and
the defeat, once and for all by the
people, OF the League of Nations.
Disregard Weather..
Probably 1000 from Cumberland
and nearby towns disregarded the
heavy rain OF the afternoon and even
ing to hear him when he spoke last
night in the Maryland Theater here.
They filled to overflowing the main
floor, filled the hrst gallery and
nearly filled the second one.
Between Rockville and Cumberland
he spoke at Frederick to another
crowd in the open air considerably
larger than the one at Rockville, and
at 2 o'clock in the afternoon a crowd
large enough to fill the big Academy
Theater in Hagerstown went through
the rain to listen to his arguments.
On the way from Hagerstown to
Cumberland he stopped in the rain
at Hancock long enough to make a
brief speech to a crowd gathered
there.
No Personal Attacks.
Contrary to expectations OF some,
Senator Johnson did not make per-
sonal attacks on ony of the big nn-
tional leaders Of the Republican party
who are opposing him or any of the
State bosses who have lined up the
organization in the State against him.
Some think he Is reserving that fire
for the meeting tomorrow night in
the Fifth Regiment Armory. in Balti-
more. But the Senator has given no
indication Of what he will say, al
though his friends state that he will
make a supreme effort at that meet
ing to capture the sentiment Of the
Republicans of Maryland.
In the speech in Cumberland the
Senator told the big crowd jokingly
of the charge made by his enemies
that he is supported by disloyal ele-
ments and warned them that IL they
voted for him they must expect to be
put into those classes. He then pass
ed to a subject which he evidently re-
CARDS as of major Importance, for he
talks it with increasing fervor. That
is the necessity for decentralization Of
power. 1t seems to be a popular
topic. judging by the way 1t Is re-
ceived.

COW HAD RABIES

Roy Day is taking the Pasteur
treatment this week on account of
having been exposed to rabies when
he attempted to feed an ailing cow
at Basin a week ago last Thursday.
The COW was down, and Mr. Day,
having no suspicion of the real ma
ture of the trouble, tried to make
her eat grain. In his attempts to
make the cow eat, his hand came In
contact with saliva from the cows
mouth. He had just been repairing
barb wire fence and had a fresh
scratch on his hand.
Later the actions of the COW
aroused suspicious and she was kill
ed and her head sent to Boise forex
animation. The test for rabies prov
ed positive, whereupoA a Telegram
was sent east for the Pasteur treat
ment.
The treatment arrived in due tim
and there is every reason to believ'
that it will be successful.
