Dispatches From Ship Indicate All

PORTO PRAIA, Cape Verde Is

Graf Zeppelin passed over this place
this afternoon.
BY the Associated Press.
The Graf Zeppelin passed the
Canary Islands today and nosed stead
lily southwest in a line almost parallel
with the African Coast toward the Cape
Verde Islands. Her course was shaped
for the Equator, with little chance,
however, of attaining that goal today.
Her last reported position was 500
miles northeast of the Cape Verde Is
lands, 200 miles due west of Villa Cis-
neros, Africa.
The British steamship Accra picked
her up at $40 am. G.. M. T. (3:20 am.
e. s. To, and relayed the news by the
German steamer Sierras Cordoba to
the Associated Press at London.
Dispatches from all sources indicated
that all was we'll on the Graf and that,
following her charted course as nearly
as possible, she was averaging about
so miles an hour toward her destina-
ton at Pernambuco, Brazil.

with lead of 207, 900 over Senator
Grundy and only 2,252 districts to
be heard from it does not appear
possible that Davis can be headed

1t had been predicted that Davis
would run ahead of his running mate
Francis Skunk Brown, candidate for.
governor-in the State, but that he
would run even with Mr.. Brown IN his
own home city, Philadelphia, was not
expected.
The race of Brown with former Gov.
Pinchot is far closer than between
Davis and Grundy. With LAS dis

was only 24,337 votes over Pinchot

has kept his hands entirely OF the
Pennsylvania situation. Had Grumpy
won, it would have been hailed far and
wide as rebuff for the Hoover adj

is a member of the cabinet, but also
because Senator Grundy has never been
an ardent supporter of Mr.. Hoover. al
though he worked hard during the
election campaign in 1928 to bring
victory to the Republican ticket.
The wet ticket in Pennsylvania,
headed by Phillips and Bohlen,
made strong showing, though
not nearly so strong as its adherents
claimed for it yesterday. Phillips, when
he was a candidate for the Republican
nomination for governor in 1926, re-
ceived approximately 72.0oO. The re-
turns SO far received indicate he will
receive 100000 or more votes when all

Retirement BILL
GETS HOUSE 0. K.
Conference Report Approved
Soon After Agreement Is
Signed by Conferees.

The House this Afternoon approved the
conference report on the retirement bill
presented by Chairman Lehlbach,
which was signed by five of the six
conferees, Senators Dale, Couzens, Nc
Kellar and Representatives Lehlbach
and Smith. Representative LETTERS,
Democrat, Of Alabama did not sign
the conference report.
Representative Lehlbach asked unan-
imous consent of the House to have
printed following the report a statement
by Senator Mcclellan. which was con-
dition precedent to. his signing the re-
port
The House acted after Senate and
House conferees had agreed on the
measure this morning.
Two More Changes.
Two more last-minute changes were
made in the bill at the conference to-
day. One provides that no annuity
shall exceed three -fourths of the aver
age compensation received by the en-
ploye during the last five years of serv-
ice. Before the adoption Of this amend
ment the bill provided that no annuity
should exceed the compensation. This
change, 1t was said, would curtain
slightly the amount of increase for
some of those already on the retired
list, who retired on low salaries.
The only other change in the agree
ment made this morning was to AK July
l as the date when the new retirement;
would go into effect. The previous
provision Gas that it would go into eff
feet in the second month following its
enactment. The change merely means
that il the bill becomes law after
June it could still go into effect at the
opening of the fiscal year on July /.
whereas under the former wording 1t
would not take effect until August.
Mcclellan Wants to Explain.
Representative Lehlbach said that
Senator Mcclellan, Democrat, of Ten
nessee, expressed desire to sign the
report with reservations and to embody
In the report statement explaining
his views.
Mr. Lehlbach explained that this could
not be done under rules governing con-
ferences, but Mr.. Lehlbach proposed
that unanimous consent be requested
when the report is submitted to have
the statement OF Senator Mcclellan
printed in the Congressional Record
Immediately, following the report. The
indications were that this would be
agreeable.

An Interesting Fact.
The First Woman suffragist

The farther one delves into Mary
land history, the more forceably it ap-
pears that the state was founded and
governed by men OF, exceptional abil-
ity and foresight, who did not hesitate
to cut the red tape of custom and pre-
cedent and strike out along original
lines. Centuries afterwards these acts
of the early forefathers are recalled
through amendments to the State con-
stitution and laws passed by campara-
lively recent Legislatures.
The first authentic reference we
have been able to find of a woman be-
ing appointed sole executrix of an es-
tate is that of the first Governor OF
Maryland, Leonard Calvert, who died
on June 9, 1647, by his last will and
testament made his kinswonan, Mar
garet Brent, sole executrix, under the
brief instructions to "take all and pay
ALL" Not only was she sole executrix
of the estate, but subsequently acting
attorney in the settlement of the Pro-
prietary's estate, and as such she ap-
peared before the General Assembly
of the Province in 1913, and requested
to have the right to vote in the House
and also to speak. This request was
denied by the Governor (Thomas
Greene), to which action Mrs. Brent
violently protested.
Mrs. Brent, together with her sister
Mary and two brothers, arrived at
St.. Mary's in 1888 and took out a
patent for property known as the
Sisters Freehold" near st. Mary's
City. She was extremely active, both
in the management of the estate of
the Proprietary and her own property,
and at the same time taking great
interest in the affairs of government.
Her action in demanding to speak
and vote in the General Assembly and
her great interest and activity in gov
ernmental management, are reasons
why she is frequently referred to as
''the first woman suffragist." It was
273 years laters in 1920, that Mary
land passed an Act enabling women
to register and vote.
Without making any invidious sug-
gestion, the first reference we find to
D. e 2 -
the women of Maryland is in regard

Clements Island, when history says

IN DAYS OF OLD
FORTY YEARS AGO


Because people had for long time
been compelled to use stale key but
ter at a high price, agitation was
started in The Republican for the es-
tablishment of a creamery in Oak
land where good butter, cheese and
other dairy products would be made.
Because the residents of Oakland
were compelled to walk considerable
distances along the town streets in
darkness because of the inadequacy
Of the kerosene lamps placed at long
intervals, The Republican suggested
that the Town Council, at its next
meeting, endeavor by liberal induce
ments interest some company or a
body of citizens to form corporation
for the purpose of building and equip
ping an electric light plant so that the
streets and buildings of town could be
adequately illuminated.
Ground was examined by an east
ern business man for the purpose of
securing a site on which to build a
large tannery. The John Helbig prop
erty, upon which there was then a
small tannery in operation, was ex-
amined and the visitor expressed him
self as being we'll pleased with it.
George M. Mason contemplated the
erection of a large steam Touring
mill. His expressed intention was to
purchase the mill then owned by H. A.
Rasche on Water street, tear it down
and put in it's place larger and more
convenient building and install in it
the latest improved machinery for the
manufacture of flour. t
