President Roosevelt not only has
a right" but a duty to speak out
in favor Of candidates who favor
his policies and in opposition to
others who fight them, Senator
M. M. Logan, Of Kentucky, told
q nationwide radio audience last
night.
The speech, broadcast over ar
NBC network, was put on the air
by the Democratic national COM
mittee. T. was the understanding
in Washington that Charles Michel.
son, publicity genius Of the ma.
tional Democratic organization,
aided in its preparation.
TWO COURSES OPEN
"The President has two
courses open to him." Senator
Logan declared. zone Is to sit
idly and see the privileged few
who oppose him exercise such
influence as will divide his
party. The other is to fight"
Although Senator Logan did not
mention any State in his radio
address, it was obviously intended
as a pointed reply to Senator Tyd-
ings' Statewide radio speech Of
Sunday night in which he insisted
that Marylanders be allowed to
choose their own representatives.
"You hear and read that this
action Of the President is 'un-
warranted interference in the
rights of States and localities"
Senator Logan said. almost
all the characterizations of this
sort come from reactionary Re
publican newspapers and per
sons high in Republican coun-
cils, and at first blush this
would seem strange.

tool, the Republican, party, be-

Almost Solid

BY w. A. S. DOUGLAS

ELLICOTT CITY, Md. Aug. "a.
There's no question about Howard
County of which this pretty city
is the seat. 1t will go almost solid
for Millard E. Tydings as Demo
cratic nominee for the United
States Senate in the coming pri-
maries.
And it would do so even if PreSi-
dent Roosevelt came to Ellicott
City in person and pleaded for
David J. Lewis, his personal choice
for TydingS' seat.

on top of that they pay marked

|MAGILL RETURNS
TO LAW SCHOOL.
FROM TAX POST.
Resigns as Official of

0.N.SO.-Resignation Of Roswell
Magill, UnderSecretary of the
Treasury and leading light in the
Administrations program Of ma
tional taxation, was accepted for a
second time today by President
Roosevelt.
Returning to the Columbia Uni
verSity Law School, Magill advised
the President that attainment of
q fair and adequate Federal tax
system :. is complex task, re-
quiring planning on a broad
front"
SUCCESSOR AWAITED
Mr.. Roosevelt, in accepting the
anticipated retirement, thanked
Magill for his services ION call" I"
Magill has been credited with
fathering most of the taxation leg
islation which was presented to
Congress in the last two years.
The summer White House
momentarily was without an
nouncement Of the successor to
Magill as the Treasury's number

Meanwhile President Roosevelt
made another vigorous thrust at
what he termed a complete VIOLA
ton of political morality in con-
nection with current Democratic
primary campaign.
The President condemned in no
uncertain fashion a reported move
ment to push Republican votes
into the Democratic primaries Of
Maryland and Georgia.
MATTER OF PRINCIPLE
Denying emphatically anything
other than an interest in prin-
ciple-as against individual can
didates-the President cited the
recent results in Idaho as a prime
example.
Senator James P. Pope, who
may yet run as an independent
with New Deal support, was
beaten by Representative D.
Worth Clark, a Conservative
Democrat, by about 5000 votes.
The President pointed out that
the difference in the 1896 and
the 1898 Idaho primary. votes in
dicated clearly that between 5000
and 10000 Republicans had en-
tered the Democratic primary
solely to vote for Clark.
Mr.. Roosevelt called on the
"Tory press" to rectify this slap at
the direct primary system.

The favorite food of the canvasback
is eel grass, wild celery and succulent
herbs which grow at the bottom of
shallow lakes. It is strict vegetarian
and limits its flight lanes to regions
where its restricted diet can be ac-
commodated.
Vast beds of eel grass on the Allan
tic Coast have been wiped out in recent
years, by a mysterious fungus blight,
pollution and other causes. In the
prairie States and provinces, the breed
ing grounds Of the canvasback have
disappeared as drought and drainage
dried up their former homes.
The invasion of American waters of
the German carp, an exotic soft fish,
which feeds on bottom vegetation and
in time destroys the food supply upon
which the canvasback ducks once
thrived during their continental migra-
tions, has unquestionably been one
OF the most severe enemies of the can
Vesback and red heads.
These calamities of natural and arti-
nclal origin have so reduced the can
vasback population that in order to
insure Its existence as species, the
Biological Survey found it necessary
to place it on the protected list until
its numbers can be restored. Increased
numbers on tne winter resting and
feeding grounds during the winters of
1936-36-37-38 have shown the wisdom
and practicability Of this restrictive
management.

Cotton and tobacco growers have
voted by overwhelming margins to
levy stiff penalty taxes on producers
who backslide under the new crop
control program.
Farmers who paused in their chores
throughout the South and in several
Western States on Saturday to cast
ballots approved marketing provisions
Of the 1898 farm act.
AS q result, Agriculture Department
officials were arranging today to put
this system into operation.
l. Each farmer will be told how
much acreage he can plant to cotton
and tobacco. The cotton farmer will
be allowed to sell, free Of penalty, all
the cotton raised on his allotted
acreage. The tobacco farmer, in addi-
tion to having his acreage fixed, will
also be told later exactly how many
pounds he can sell.
2. Any farmer planting more land
to cotton than his allotted acreage
will have to pay penalty tax of 2
cents a pound when he markets cotton
from this excess acreage. A farmer
selling more tobacco than his Market
ing quota will pay a penalty of one
half the market price on this excess.
