STANFORD WITHDRAws FROM
ATTORNEY GENERAL RACE

Henry L. D. Stanford, Jr.. has
withdraw from the race for nomina-
ton on the Democratic ticket as At
torney General. In his statement,
published in the Baltimore Sun, MIR.
Stanford said:
ION january 8, 1888, entered
the lists as a candidate for the Office
of Attorney General of Maryland, at
the same time declaring my inde-
pendence of any alignment.
"Since that time, I have openly
campaigned and have. I hope, con-
tributed some constructive drought
to the problems of the State of
Maryland, particularly with regard
to our minor courts and the State
system of parole. / have naturally,
during the same period, had an op-
portunity to observe the mind and
temper of the democracy Of Mary
land as to the candidates now be-
fore the people.
'As a result of these observations
it is my well-considered thought
that the success of the Democratic
party in Maryland can best be ssrv-
ed by the nomination of Mayor How
ard w. jackson for the Office of Gov
ernor. believe this is proper not
only because think he Is the choice
of the voters of our party. but be-
cause believe he possesses the great
ability among those who are candi-
dates and can most ably oil the re-
quirements of the Office.
81 have also concluded that 1t Is
to the best interest of the party that
should retire as a candidate for
Attorney General and lend my sup
port to the Hon. William c. Walsh,
of Cumberland, who has on many oc-
casions demonstrated his capability
for this important post.
"In making this announcement I
do not wish to reflect In any way
upon the ability and integrity of any
other candidate for these Offices, as
feel that all of the candidates be-
fore the people possess those quail
ties and are worthy of carrying the
party banner in November"

LEWIS REPLIES TO TYDINGs

Baltimore, Md.,-Representative
David ]. Lewis sat beside a radio in
his headquarters in the Emerson
Hotel after Senator Tydings spoke
on Sunday night Aug. 81, on what
he called the "transcendental issues"
of the Senatorial primary campaign.
After Tydings finished, Mr.. Lewis
went to an inside room and plunged
into the preparation of his answer.
Accompied by campaign assistant.
he rushed through a back alley to
reach the studio just in time to go
on the air, only two and one half
hours after Senator Tydings had
finished. szs
The high points in Little Davey's
speech were:
President Roosevelt be blasted as
carpet-bagger because he is in
terested in the Maryland Senatorial
fight? Is Mr.. Roosevelt President of
forty-seven states only? MIR. Tydings'
speech tonight was apparently al
attempt to either scare the Presi.
dent out of Maryland or else to
create and unfavorable reception
should he come.
Tydings had much to say of the
sovereignty of the people of Mary
land. Mr.. Lewis said, "If there is
anyone who has ignored the SOW
ereignty of Maryland, it is Mr.. Tyd-
ings. He has fiouted the people Of
Maryland and the President almost
every step of the way. "Mr. Tydings
was elected in a Democratic land
slide on Mr.. Roosevelt's coat-tails."
"The President knows, and my
friends know, that I have worked
for and fought for the ideals Of the
New Deal long before the Roosevelt
administration was thought Of. I
shall continue to fight for these
ideals. am glad that Senator Tyd-
ings at last has been able to make
up his mind regarding the issues in
this campaign, because he has been
fumbling around for long time.
Mr.. Lewis told his listeners that
the real issue in the campaign Is
the Roosevelt program and the Pres
ident's need of help in Congress to
carry it through.
Maryland twice has Endorsed that
program and by overwhelming major
ities," he said, "yet the Senator who
rode to victory on the Roosevelt
landslide, not only voted against
the Presidents most important
measures, but heckled, criticized and
even connived with the Liberty
League and the Republican leaders
to embarrass the President.

Full-time physicians in the Health
Department to supervise prevention
work IN what now are regarded as
minor" spheres of the agency's ac-
tivity was declared yesterday to be
q prime health need of the Capital
by DR.. Robert c. Olesen, assistant
surgeon general Of the United States
Public Health Service. DR.. Olesen
spoke at the monthly luncheon of
the Council of Social Agencies, held
at the Y. w. c. A.
DR.. Olesen declared that he con-
sidered this one of the most impor-
tant recommendations contained in
the survey of Washingtons medical
requirements submitted last spring
to the District Commissioners by
the Public Health Service. He listed
cancer, pneumonia and dental hygi-
enc as problems which could be
coped with more effectively if spe-
cialists were made available to the
Health Department.
No Estimate on Cost.
In summarizing the six-year pro-
gram, DR.. Olesen said he could offer
no estimate as to its cost either for
additional personnel or construction
work and equipment.
Adequate working quarters for the
Health Department staff and estab-
lishment of three health centers in
the city, each affiliated with a med
ical school, were termed urgent items
IN the latter classification by the
speaker. He pointed out that CO.
ordination OF public facilities with
medical training would be exceed
lngly valuable in fitting young doc
tors for public practice or enabling
them to work more efficiently with
the department if they entered the
field of private practice.
Urges Social Medicine.
DR.. OleSen urged members of the
council to press for achievement of
the Washington plan without wait

Discussing the latter plan, DR..
K. s. Falk, chief of health studies.

OF the Social Security Board, said
he believed the Nations principal

ton between social medicine and

Friends Of Garner
Gather 10 Launch
Presidential Boom
Resolutions to Stress
Thrift and Hard Work
In Political Career

DETROIT, Tex, Dec. 6.-Boy-
hood friends of John Nance Gar
ner, who was born in shantv and
rose from a frontier lawyer to Vice
President, rounded up the folks of
Northeast Texas today for a rally
that will formally launch the Gar
ner- or President movement
throughout the Nation.
Thousands of the faithful-from
the youngsters who aspire to his
career of high public service to the
oldsters who remember the earnest
young lawyer as the best shortstop
Red River County ever produced
have been called to meet here to
form the first Garner-for President
Club
The meeting place is only a few
miles from the mud-chinked log
cabin where Mr. Garner was born.
Resolutions to be submitted to the
rally will stress the frontier Ameri-
can virtues of thrift, self f-reliance
and hard work exemplified by his
life and political career.
Political friends have a ready an
swer to the question of whether Mr..
Garner would accept a presidential
nomination if it were forthcoming
Well" one old-timer put it, "he
hasn't said yes-but he hash t
said no."
The Vice President has lent no en-
couragement to the movement. But
those who know him best confidently
believe he would accept the respon-
sibilities of that high Office if they
were placed upon him by the Ameri-
can people.
John Nance hasn't shirked pub
lie duty yet his. friends say, land
he won't shirk this one if it comes
along"
John Garner was born on farm
near here November %, 1868, and
spent his early boyhood tramping six
miles daily to and from his country
school, doing full round of chores
on the farm and riding miles OF
fence. AS he grew older he found
time for baseball. organizing a team
at Coon Soup Hollow and playing
the boys from Possom Trot, Reeo
Tank, Blossom Prairie and othe,
northeastern Texas communities.
