According to Senator Tydings, a
milk study had been made by the
Federal Trade Commission in Penn
sylvama and Connecticut, and that
the Commission commended both the
dairy industry and the farmers for
the way they co-operated Contin-
uing his discussion Of milk, the Sen
ator said:
Now there was another investi-
CATION asked for of the Washington
Milk Market and that was sought
because western farmers were trying
to take that market away from the
Maryland and other nearby eastern
farmers
The Senator said he had not looked
with favor on that inquiry because
there was .nothing back Of these
investigations except y desire Of the
western farmers to take this market
away from the nearby farmers" The
Senator said he had many letters
from sdsirymsp in the Philadelphia,
Baltimore and Washington territory
asking him to do what he did,
Addressing another meeting in
North Baltimore later, Senator Tyd-
ings took note of the speech by Mr..
Lewis at Annapolis last night in which
the New Deal candidate replied to
the Senator's charge that an Eastern
Shore postmaster was taking part in
the Lewis campaign. Mr.. Lewis
pointed out that he was the Sena-
tors opponent and the fight should
be between them.
Welcomes Return to Fray"
In reply Senator Tydings said he
was glad Mr.. Lewis was back in the
fight again.
MY first opponent in this cam
paign was the Hon. David ]. Lewis"
the Senator said He ran for q
while, then he dropped out. Then
our revered Chief Executive was called
IN, and refused to run against him.
My third opponent has Just shown
up tonight, and he is the Hon. David
j. Lewis, because, speaking in An
napoiis, he reminded the people that
he Is my opponent. I am glad he
Is back in the fight again. because
for a while he had me shadow box
ing"
Senator Tydings ended the evening
by addressing gathering of taxi
cab drivers. where he explained that
In the Senate he had tried, in acting
on taxicab legislation for the District
OF Columbia, to safeguard the in
terests Of the smaller and individual
cab operators.
In his first speech of the evening
at Towson, on the outskirts of the
city, the Senator bore down with
more emphasis on the Administra-
tion's interference in the primary
light than he has at any time since
the President spoke for Mr.. Lewis
on the Eastern Shore Monday. After
declaring that the Maryland cam
paign has been the most disgrace
ful, vicious and unusual campaign
In the nation" the Senator asserted
that the Chief Executive and the
Federal machine has been brought
into the contest against him.
Promises to Lick EN-"
But just as sure as the sun rises
and sets, every damn one of them is
going to be licked" he declared, as
the crowd In the Armory applauded.
Declaring that the question OF
whether the President should take
part in State elections Is at issue in
the Maryland campaign, the Senator
continued:
Suppose the innovation being at
tempted succeeded? Suppose you had
q Congress elected on that basis. What
kind Of . government would it be,
with members owing allegiance first
to the executive and second to their
people? That's the European way,
not the American way, and the Amer
ican people have said already from
California to South Carolina that
they don't want that way"
Democracy cannot live, he said, by
yielding up to the executive pow
ers that belong to the other branches
Of the Government.
Il do not attack the man, or his
fine motives" said Mr.. Tydings, But
I attack the method"
At one Of last nights meetings the
denomination of Mr.. Tydings was
urged in vigorous terms by his COL
league and campaign manager, Sen
ator Radcliffe, who has been q strong
supporter and close friend Of the
President. -
Senator Tydings has been address
ing numerous gatherings in all Sec
tions Of Baltimore during the past
10 days, and his supporters believe
his strength has increased In the city
