TENDER IL; State G. o. P.
Active

Walter johnson, one-time idol of
millions of diamond fans, has become
political figure.
For years the former Washington
pitcher has led quiet life on h S
Montgomery county farm during off
seasons from the diamond grind with
never thought of political affairs.
With the entry of Alfred M. Lam
don, fellow hansan, in. the presi-
Dental race, however, Johnson has
become an avowed supporter of the
Republican nominee.
He will be host to the Landon-Le
Gore Club of Montgomery county at
farmers rally on his farm near
Germantown on September IL.
The rally will be addressed by Sen
ator L. ]. Dickinson, Republican, of
Iowa, who is to speak on "What AL
fred M. Landon Means to the Farm
ers of the United States"
Splendid reports have reached Will
liam P. Lawson, chairman of the Re
publican State Central Committee of
Maryland, from his touring Congress
sional nominees. "All indications
point to their election" said Chair
man Lawson today, who met practi-
cally all the county leaders at the
Urma Picnic in Hagerstown, where
Colonel Frank Knox spoke last week.
o. Straughn Lloyd, Salisbury, is
touring the Eastern Shore of Mary
land in the First Congressional Dis
trict; Harry w. LIE Gore, LIE Gore, is
engaging in an active campaign in
Western Maryland, which embraces
the sixth Congressional District.
Henry C. Whiteford, Whiteford, is

District, speaking several times week
ly, and Roscoe C. Rowe, Annapolis,

Congressional District.

the Baltimore area within a few days
by John Philip Hill, Third Congress
sional District, and by Daniel Ellison,
Fourth Congressional District. Both
have been called temporarily out of
the city.
Chairman Lawson, as well as other
prominent Republicans, was enthusi-
astic over the reception given Colonel
Knox at Hagerstown. Only 300
could be seated around the festive
board, but hundreds of others would
have been there had they been able
to obtain tickets. The public recep-
ton at Hotel Alexander f er his
speech at the Fairgrounds also was a
grand success, showing how popular
the former rough-rider is.
Within few days Chairman Law
son expects confirmation of the
date Colonel Knox will speak at the
Fifth Regiment Armory, Baltimore.
The chairman has been in touch with
Clarence ]. Brown, who is manag-
ing the colonel's campaign tour,

AS WE SEE 1T
By MONTCO

SENATOR COUZENS is a RI h
man He made his fortune from a
timely investment based upon his
faith in Henry Ford. This faith has
maid excellent and almost unbeliev-
oble dividends. This same faith, so
well-founded, he places in the keep
inc of Franklin D. Roosevelt. Cou-
7ens. speaking of the COP. horror
Of the vast expense of recovery, re-
minds us that when the States, the
Counties, the Towns and other les
ser political subdivisions. found it i'm
uOssible to support their citizens or
to find work for them to do, there
was no hesitancy in calling upon the
Federal Government for assistance
Here, in Rockville, we know that the
Administration spent certa in
amount of money for town improve
ments which we could not have en-
iOyed had it not been for the WPA
expenditures. Much better that the
government put up this money even
if the budget remains unbalanced
than raise local taxes at the time.
The increase in the national wealth
will, or should, take care of the pub
Lie debt in the next few years. Cou-
zens says, and with a great deal of
common sense, "you can't balance
the national budget when States are
Unable to take care of their local
burdens" Let us look at Kansas,
. the home of Gov. Landon: Landon's
home county, Montgomery, last year
permitted the Federal Government to
carry "a per cent of its relief load.
The county bore Is per cent and the
. State of Kansas eight-tenths of one
per cent. And so it is with other
communities where even cheaper
pOsies than the sun-fowers grow.
lneIe is OlC6Il WASTE duO SIdAI, We
admit. Where does one not find
waste and graft where politics -four
ishes? That is a fault of a system,
based upon our Constitution, not the
fault of any political party. While
We cherish the principles of Democ-
racy and guard the mainsprings of
cur Constitution, after all, times
change and amendments are being
added every decade. Even in private
firms and organizations we find poll
tics being played. And wherever
you find politics, look out for some
thing amiss. 1t gets into the sys-
tenn, like the races. No harm meant.
Just something willed to US FIR o m
our ancestors and awfully hard to
shed.

M'LEMORE PICKS
 |CUBS TO REPEAT LIN NATIONAL
Brooklyn Named to Lead Second Division at End
 of Season
BY HENRY McLEMORE

\OnlVcO ETcoo CtAH NUETCBpUHUCutD
 New York, April ' 7.-UP)-I looked out of my window this bright and lovely morning, and through the rain and mist saw an old gentle man in an awkward and crochety chase of his hat. The sight remind ed me of the Brooklyn Dodgers ir- field which, in turn, reminded me of baseball (not much I'll admit, but little), and in a twinkling l decided to issue my annual forecast of the 1936 baseball season.
 It's well that made the decision, too, for in another day 1t might have been too late. As you perhaps don't know, have been in the south for the past four months collecting freckles and baseball data. Unfor- tunately, the freckles have worn better than the data. Day by day, I have been forgetting the facts I ! gathered about baseball two days ago it was my information about the Cincinnati Reds which picked up and left. Yesterday I began to lose my grip on the Philadelphia Athletics, and right now the only positive fact I have on that team is that they are counting heavily on a looney southpaw named some thing r-the-other Waddell. Rube I beleive it is.
 AS for the other teams, I have them pretty well in hand.
 Salient Facts
 Lots of salient facts, and all that sort of thing. Some of the salient facts I gathered by personal visits to the camp grounds of the athletes, some gathered by reading the re- ports of other authorities, and some I made up. From 8 combination of the three I have worked out a final standing of the teams-a standing which I firmly believe will tally perfectly with the official standings in October, when the 1886 season will have ended and Judge Mount Everest Landis, worn uto a thread by his eXacting duties, will have retired to a golf course to rest up. Here are the standings:

FTUUeSL
 Historians will immediately note two odd facts about this American league table: Namely, the standings are exactly as those of last season, and the Philadelphia Athletics are not included. Perhaps I had betetr explain the latter item first. The Athletics, according to my calcula- ton will withdraw from the Ameri- can league late in April as pro- test against President William Har- ridges sale of the teams moving picture rights to Mack Sennett's Keystone comedy company, and re- place Bloomington in whatever league Bloomington is in. The Bloomington players will picket the park for two weeks. AS for the 1886 figures exactly matching the 1885 figures, that can't be helped, for I simply called 'em as saw 'em.

Random Notes

Our Governor recently stated that of
the Sal 900 granted for a water system
SIG. 600 had been released. This money
is to provide a pumping system, reser
voirs and pipe lines with MIGRANTS at the
street corners where the fire engine hose
may be attacked when fire occurs.
Cast iron pipea for running the main
lines have been laid on the ground near
the places where they will be required.
Since that time, another great fire has
occurred.
A man who has lived in Haiti describ bed
a simple but effective system used in
that country. When a fire occurs an
electric pump forces water into the pipe
lines to which the fire engine hose is
attacked. With such a system the
reservoirs or tanks would not be neces
sary.
This water project is going a little
slower than things moved in the Thor se
and buggy" days.
