JACKSON NOT
PUSHING CLAIMS
Former Maryland Senator Is In
No Hurry To Be Appointed
To Foreign Post

Salisbury, Md, April at became
known here to-day, following dis
patches from Washington that Col.
Harry Il. Wilcox, of Baltimore, has
called upon President Harding to
urge former United States Senator
William p. Jackson's appointment as
Minister to Spain, that, while Senator
Jackson would deeply appreciate the
honor of being named for this post by
the President, his most intimate
friends know that his real preference
is :or an appointment to Switzerland,
Holland or Belgium.
1t is well known that Senator Jack
sons appointment to diplomatic
post has been urged by the united Re-
publican delegation of Maryland in
Congress, including the two United
States Senators, and that it has re-
ceived the cordial Endorsement of men
representing every shade of political
orinon in the State The feeling is
general tnat his long service as the
head of the organization entities him
to receive recognition from the adj
ministration. His friends want him
recognized, and they leave the form
that the recognition should take en-
tirely to him.
Senator Jackson has frequently cx-
pressed the wish that his appointment
should not hinder the appointment of
other Marylanders who are anxious
to be preferred by the administration
and who are deserving of recogni-
tinn." said one of his staunch friends
here to-day, "and he wishes Maryland
to have its full quota of modern ap-
pointments. However, his friends
feel that that there is no necessary
conflict between the two. A diplo-
matte appointment stands apart, and
it is believed that his selection would
not make less likely the appointment
of other Marylanders to offices in
volving totally different duties"
In this connection il is also under
stood that owing to the unsettled con-
ditions resulting from the war and
due to Senator JackSon'S extensive
business interests. he much prefers,
in the event that President Harding
decides to use his services, that the
appointment be made year and a
half hence rather than at once.

ty one fourth.
Granting that the above state
ment is true Worcester County
must raise about 100000 to help
build these roads, and the only
way for her to get the money is
by bonding the county for that
amount. SO the Commissioners
acted on the matter last Tues
day.
The details of the issue have
not yet been worked out but the
bonds can be paid off serially so
that the tax rate will not be
materially increased.
If we do not raise our part we
get nothing from the Federal OF
State Governments and our al
lotment will go to other counties.

Four years ago last Wednes-
day, the United States entered
the World War.
The resolution of Congress.
declaring a state of war existed
with Germany. was signed by
President Wilson on the night Of
April 6, 1917. And today finds
the United States technically
still at war with Germany.
Germany, in a note January
81. 1917. declared her intention
of sinking without warning, any
merchant vessel, either an enc
my or neutral craft. that entered
the German sO.called danger
zone"
This precipitated the sever
ance of diplomatic relations on
February 3, with the United
states preserving an attitude OF
armed neutrality until actual
war was declared.
During her participation in
the war. America accomplished
wonders which will be memoir
able in history. An army of
more than 3.500,00O was raised
by draft and enlistment. equip
ped and trained in modern war
fare. and 100000 of these SOL
diers were sent overseas and
thrown into the breach that
saved the day for the Allies.
