BRUCE MAKES ADDRESS
IN FRANCES COUNTY
Explains To Cecil Democrats
What Soviet Rule Means And
Flags Senator's Record
RITcHIE ALSO SPEAKS

Some hot verbal shots were directed
at Senator France last night in his
own home county. Cecil. by William
Cabell Bruce. Democratic nominee for
the United States Senate. who. TO-
gether with Governor Ritchie. spoke
at Elkton to large gathering of Cecil
Democrats. After thoroughly ex-
planning what Soviet rule really
means, and attacking the present
senior senator from Maryland for his
strong advocacy OF the Bolsheviks.
Mr.. Bruce stated that he didn't think
the Senator to be conscious dema-
gogue." but rather believed he simply
lacked horse sense The whole
political record OF Senator France
also was severely attacked by Mr..
Bruce during his discourse.
G. o. p. Tariff Condemned
Governor Richie criticized the Re-
publican Congress for reducing the
higher rates of the graduated income
tax and the excess profits tax, alleg-
ing that this will result in an added
burden. amounting to $5O0.00O 900 an
nually. on the masses of the people.
He claimed those who made excessive
profits should be taxed heavily.
The Governor said the Fordney-Mc-
Cumber tariff is iniquitous. because it
taxes all the necessaries OF life. He
said it will add $50 year to the ex-
penses of every man. woman and
child in the country. The voters can
do their part in remedying this. he
said. by electing Democratic candi-
dates to the Senate and House.
Mr.. Bruce. said, in part:
What reason can Senator France,
my Republican opponent, give for
seeking reelection? He has ad-
vanced a number of fantastic theories

by international New. Service.

RICHMOND, Va, Pest. 23.--
Leaving the striking clerks Of the
Chesapeake and Ohio railroad to
shift for themselves, one OF the con.
ditions precedent to the considera.
ton Of the settlement Of the strike
of the shopmen, the Chesapeake and
Ohio and the shopcrafts have
reached an agreement.
The striking shopmen are to go
back to work at once. possibly many
of them returning today and more
by Monday.
w. ]. Harahan, president Of the
road, said the agreement Is salts,
factory to both the men and the
company and that those who re.
turned to work before the ending of
the trouble and those who were en-
ployed during the strike will he
taken care Of. Ii the course of other
roads is followed, this means that
the new men will begin to "disap-
pear" at once, as was the case with
the Southern and the Seaboard.
The agreement affects the entire
system, more than 1000 men here
will again take their old places.
The local shopmen made a deter.
mined fight to the last to stand by
the clerks, but 1t was established
that their places have been filled and
that there were men among the
clerks whom the company would
not consider for reinstatement under
any circumstances, and the ship
men proceeded to cut loose and take
care of themselves. The clerks now
employed have formed an independ-
ent organization and will deal with
the company direct.
All of the shopmen are to be re-
instated inside of thirty days, &c.
cording to the agreement.
