The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1938-10-27

Because of the conditions he found
in the counties and the reports from
the City of Baltimore, Governor Nice
has declared himself confident of re-
election. He and his running mates
are certain that the majority will be
far in excess of the figures in 1884.
All signs point to this result.
Throughout the counties Governor
Nice has found keen interest by the
voters in the platform of the Repub-
lican Party, which has been praised
by The Sun. He has been told by
many, both Republicans and Demo-
Gratis, that it is the best document of
the kind put out by political party in
Maryland in many years.
Platform Interests
Especially were the voters inter
ested in that part of the platform COW
ering the major projects of the State
Roads Commission, educational facili-
ties, labor, forestry, agriculture and
conservation. The platform reported
to the people that the oyster business
is in better condition now than it has
been in twenty years. 1t pointed out
that during the season preceding the
appointment of the present Conserva-
ton Commission the total yield Of
oysters was 2,148,000 bushels, but that
since then there has been steady and
healthy growth in production until the
yield at the close of the season last
spring was 3,245,816 bushels.
On Monday Governor Nice will COM
plete his swing through the counties
with a tour of Worcester county,
starting at $50 o'clock in the morning
from the Court House at Snow Hill.
Friday of this week he is due in Som
erset county and Saturday he will
spend with the people of Wicomico
county.
Women Organized
From November LIST to election day
Governor Nice and his running mates
will stay in Baltimore City, with occa-
sional trips to nearby points in the
county. The Baltimore campaign has
been saved until the last eight days
and plans for several huge demonstra-
lions and mass-meetings are under
way.
While the Governor has been tour
ing, party leaders has been forming
a real working organization to func-
ton through election day and to take
an active interest at the polls in all
sections of the state. Miss Helen Eliza
beth Brown, prominent attorney,
chairman of the Women's Division of
the Nice campaign, has formed a
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1938-10-27

group with membership extending
into the far corners of Maryland. Its
objective is to interest the women in
the election and to see to It that the
work at the polls is carried through
efficiently and to aid persons in reach
ing their respective voting destina-
tions. In addressing the women, Miss
Brown said:
"Women's rights and women's prob
lens were disregarded and ignored in
Maryland until Governor Nice as
sumed office"

NICE RECEIVES
BIG RECEPTION
THROUGH STATE
CLAIMS DROPPING OF
PARTY LINES
SHOWN

In his triumphant swing through
the counties of Maryland in the inter-
est of his reelection, Governor Harry
w. Nice has met with the most en-
thusiastic receptions in the history of
political campaigning in the Gree
State"
On all sides he has been greeted
with open arms by the citizens, Re-
publicans and Democrats alike, and the
receptions have literally turned into
old-fashioned political love-feasts.
Never before has there appeared, SO
wildly, in a gubernatorial campaign
such an unmistakable trend of drop
ping party lines. That this trend is
sweeping through the state is undeni-
able and clearly points to the advan-
tage of Governor Nice and his rum
ming mates in the election of Novem-
Der 8.
The Governor has talked personally
to thousands of persons on the streets,
roads and in homes. He has addressed
overlooking meetings and has in
telligently discussed the problems of
the state-those which he has solved,
those which he is studying and those
which must be faced during the next
administration.
Victory Forecast
While touring the counties the Gov
ernor kept in constant touch with the
progress of the campaign in Baltimore
City. Reports to him confirmed the
fact that conditions in the city are the
same as in the counties-a strong
trend of dropping party lines. City
leaders expressed to him their con-
viction that the Nice banner would be
carried to victory there despite the
strong Democratic REGISTRATION.

cording to the Chinese, gravely
threatened the Japanese right
flank.
PEIPING LESS TENSE
Intense activity by japanese
airplaneS to the west and south
west of Peiping drove off small
guerrilla bands which have been
terrorizing villages, and tonight
tension in Peiping was ended. All
city gates, some of which had been
closed to prevent infiltration of
Chinese terrorists into Peiping,
have been reopened.
Scores of Chinese irregularS

campaign, Nipponese headquarters
here reported.
GUERILLAS SWARM IN
Only the speedy arrival of
japanese reinforcements saved the
small garrison at Nantungchow,
SIS miles northwest of Shanghai,
when a band of 5000 Chinese
guerillaS Swarmed in. The garri-
son was overwhelmed in the first
rush.
Along all the hundreds Of miles
of fronts, bands of Chinese irregu-
lars haraSsed Japanese lines of
communications. In the Popping
area the guerillas were augmented
by thousands of Communist troops
of the famous red general, Chu
Teh.
Holly disputing Chinese victory
claims, japanese, authorities to-
Cay claimed their troops were
advancing steadily on the central
front toward the Lunghai railway.
The Chinese according to Nip
ponese claims, blew up piers and
warehouses in Haichow, important
Lunghai railway terminus. APP
parently with the intention of
abandoning the city in the face Of
the japanese drive.
It also was claimed Nipponese
forces were about to capture FoWn-
ing, so miles south of Haichow.
TROOPS MASSED
Both the Chinese and japanese
high commands were reported
massing troops in the Tancheng
area in preparation for another
suicidal struggle on that blood
soaked terrain.
Hankow also reported japanese
planes had raided the city OF
SuchoW, vital Lunghai junction,
killing 500 and wounding $50 per-
sons.
Ninety more were claimed to
have been killed in simultaneous
raids on Shekki, Yingtak and
Shiukwan. while the towns of Sug.
sien and Mengcheng in Anhwei
province also were heavily bombed,
with an asserted death toll of $50.
Meanwhile, far to the south,
japanese naval forces attacked
Ballast Island southwest of Portu-
guese Macao. Heavy gunfire was
audible in the Portuguese colony.
Hong King reports, however,
said the attackers were driven off
with severe losses.
The Japanese bombardment,
carried out by three warShips,
terrorized Chinese villagers, who
flocked into Macao for protection.

Circus Folk
Pay Claims
Barred

Col. Tim McCoy's defunct Wild
West Show was disclosed today as
legally hogtied as a champion
rodeo performer could wish.
The lassoes of the law had the
enterprise done up like a doggy
on the range. And for some $50
showfolk it appeared a case of
whistling while they looked for
work and for any claims they may
have felt they had on the show.
ADJUSTER FUNDS SNARL
Dewitt T. Bartlett, legal adjus-
ter for the Mccoy show, uncovered
the snarl when he consulted with
Richard Harmon, Washington
attorney. to see what could be done
about some $4,000 he hopes to get
back after advancing that amount
in small portions to the stranded
performers.
When Hartman got through
reading the order of receivership
granted to William H. Collins and
Edmund M. Toland, and signed
by United States District Court
Justice Peyton Gordon, Bartlett's
face was as red as a western sun
set.
In 80 years of law and show
business, Bartlett said, he'd never
seen anything like the legal setup
attending the demise of the horse
opera. Herman, as a lawyer, said
he was inclined to think so, too.
WAGE CLAIMS BARRED
According the Hartman, the re-
ownership order prevents any
claims for wages being filed.
I'm substance" Hartman said,
"this order enjoins filing, COM
mencement, prosecution or at
tempt to collect any claim or
debt by any action at law or in
equity before any board or COM
mission or umpire, or any pro-
ceeding in admiralty before any
board or body or person"
The order, Hartman continued,
gives the receivers the power to
dispose of the shows livestock in
any way they see fit.
While the show owes performers
ana attendants about $4,000 in
wages, there is no law in the Dis
tr1ct of Columbia courts which
makes it mandatory to give
priority to wage claims in any
case except under the bankruptcy
act.
ALL COURTS CLOSED
The performers cannot file for
back wages in the small Claims
Court here, either, Hartman
pointed out.
Hartman said he contemplates
asking the District Court for a
modification of the order enjoin-
ing the filing of claims, and will
ask that the case be put in the
bankruptcy court. He will base this
step on the fact that the complaint
OF F. Stewart Stranahan, asking
for the receivership order, alleged
that the show was insolvent, and
the answer to the complaint,
sworn to by Col. Tim Mccoy, ad.
mitted this.
In the meantime, it was point
ed out, the ultimate split-up of
money derived from selling the
show will be very slim indeed.
Bartlett estimated that the re-
ceiverS might get $4,000 from
sales. Claims on the show, he fig
ured would run about $3.50, 900.
