Richie SCORES
GOV. NICE

BALTIMORE, Feb. 27.-Former
Governor Albert C. Richie last
night broke the silence that had
held him since he left office, and
dashed out at Governor Harry W.
Nice, his Republican successor,
with the assertion:
1--WE must assume that the
State can expect no financial
leadership from the executive
department. For the first time
in my recollection the State is
withO, a governor who makes
any effort to function"
Tydings Warning
The governor, however, was fol-
lowed on the speakers platform at
a Democratic rally by Senator Mil
lard F. Tydings Cd, who warned
against "criticizing men in high
office" pointing out that "the
business of Government is not
easy in these times" He added:
1--WE should use tolerance in
judging the plans put forth by
those in high office"
Mr.. Richie, Mr.. Tydings and
other party leaders who spoke
agreed that perfect harmony
after the primary blood letting
is over will be needed to insure
the election of a Democratic
mayor in Baltimore in the spring.
Mr.. Richie said:
81 do not know who is in
on that nefariOus plot. Ger
tainly I am not one of the
conspiratOrs. 1 have stood
completely aside since the new
administration began six weeks
ago, in the hopes that the
governor. as head of the ad-
ministratiOn, would evolve some
sort of legislative and financial
program.
WHAT ARE POLICIES?
GIL WAAAA~~AVS
and love my State well enough
to want to see the man whom
the people elected solve his
problems instead of fumbling
them. / would not speak even
now, but it is somebody's job to
point out the financial situa-
ton.
"The 'fireside' talk is de-
scribed as the governors ace in
the hole to force his policies ON
the Democratic legislature.
Well, God knows the legislature
has been patient in waiting to
know what those policies are.
If there is any unholy partisan
plot to discredit the Republican
governor, 1 have heard no evil
dence that the Democratic
members of the legislature are
in on it,"

Will Rogers
Says:

HOLLYWOOD, CAL, Feb. ~.
Was down last night with
Charlie Chaplin, listening to
our friend Will Durant, the
philosopher, debate on world
economics. Charlie has made a
study of that. He is the great
est economist in the world.
Every nation has lost export
trade, yet stop and think of it,
Chaplin manufactures the only
article in the world, that hasn't
deprecated, the world is his
market the same as before de-
preston, but he has never let
the supply equal the demand.
While all the worlds big in
dustrialists were greedy, Charlie
never went in for mass produc-
ton. Seems odd that a
comedian can do what govern
ments are not smart enough
to do.

had served Michael as bedroom

through them all.
There was little enough. There
was pitifullv little. A handful OF
old letters with the postmark of
a little town in a western state.
A thick, clumsy old gold watch.

Sally riffled through the let

rafting pots and pans and set
ting down the cups with angry
gusto. Sally paid no attention to
all this. She had come with a
determination to go through
Michaeps belongings, to see, if
she could find any clue to his
disappearance. She flounced in
to the living room after a busy
five minutes, a small bundle III

Tips watched her go, open

of the kitchen to ask him, THAT
