While the Democratic candidate was
making his proposal at Annapolis, Gov.
Nice. campaigning for reelection, was,
In rally at Towson, criticizing the
platform Of his opponent. to whom he
referred throughout his speech as "Mr.
Herbert Romulus O'Conor."
Asks of Economic Policy.
In the midst Of the industrial region
Of Maryland, the Governor said, Mr..
O'Conor gave great promises to labor,
but he fails to explain why there is
no plank in his platform on capital
and labor"
Gov. Nice said, II have asked our
friend, Romulus, to tell me what is
his economic policy. have called his
attention to the fact that in 1887 he
came out flatfooted for the consumers
sales tax; that he came out flatfooted
for an increase In the tobacco tax
and he also came out flatfooted for an
increase in the real estate tax"
The Governor, recalling that O'Conor
during the current campaign, was op-
posing those levies, asserted his oppo-
nent had changed his entire program
and now was advocating a graduated
income tax.
That's all right" Gov. Nice said,
but maybe the income tax amend
ment won't pass. Then what is he
going to do? Advocate the lottery
amendment that will be on the ballot
November and propose to function
the State on the proceeds from gam
bling? He has not answered that"

manager Of the campaign.
Will Discuss Issues.
Candidates will make it a point to
discuss the issues Of the campaign at
each of the meetings, especially claims
made by the Democrats in their plat
form, released Wednesday.
Chief among the points on which
the party will take its opponents to
task are claims by the Democrats that
the incumbent administration has
failed to keep its campaign pledges
Of four years ago.
In financial statement said to have
been taken from the county records
the Republicans charge that the Dem
ocrats increased the bonded indebted
ness Of the county from $l,600,000 in
1925 to $10,500, 900 in 1884, while dur
ing that time the increased assessed
valuation did not furnish sufficient
taxes to pay for necessary improve
ments.
According to the statement, the
Democrats issued s4,372,0O0 in bonds
in the years 1881. 1882 and 1888. while
for the years 1885, 1896 and 1887 the
Republicans issued bonds totaling
$736000. 1t is claimed that only 24.3
per cent of the Democratic issues was
devoted to school construction, while
those of the Fusion party administra-
ton were entirely for this purpose.
Claim Government Waste.
Another challenge being given the
Democratic claims Of waste in gov
ernment during the past four years is
the charge that only s674978 was paid
on the bonded debt for the four years
1881 to 1884. while during the next
four years the Fusionists paid s2,417,-
1873
The Republicans further claim that
the Democratic administration bor-
rowed money to carry on the county
government while decreasing the tax
rate, $l.30 in 1882. to 95 in 1888 and
80 cents in 1884. The tax rate during
the Fusion boards tenure has been
$3.50.
Merton English, jr.. Republican
candidate for the House Of Delegates,
will discuss the issues of the campaign
in talk over Station WMAL at $40
o'clock tonight, while other speakers
are scheduled to make talks each Mon

ASKED IN HOUSE
Crawford Deficiency Fund
Proposal Is Before
Committee.

While the Budget Bureau today con-
tinued silent on the request Of the
Federal Bureau of Investigation for
deficiency appropriation to prevent
further curtailment Of activities, the
House Appropriations Committee had
before 1t joint resolution for an
emergency appropriation Of $173,O00,
introduced late yesterday by Repre-
sentative Crawford, Republican, Of
Michigan.
This is the sum said to have been
asked Of the Budget Bureau in order
to restore to duty 800 furloughed
special agents and to prevent the fur
loughins of 800 more on June /.
The House Appropriations Commit
tee. through Subcommittee Chairman
Mcmillan. yesterday disclaimed re-
sponsibility for the financial plight Of
the G-men. Mr.. Mcmillan pointed
out that Congress appropriated more
than the Budget Bureau recommended
for the current fiscal year and the
next fiscal year.
Records OF the appropriation hear
ings. however. show that for each of
these years the F. B I. said it needed
far larger sums than the Budget
Bureau allowed. For the current fiscal
year Attorney General Cummings
testified the F. B. I. required $6,530.-
1875, whereas the Budget Bureau
recommended S5.925 900 and Congress
appropriated $6.000,0O For the next
fiscal year J. Edgar Hoover. F. B. I
director, testified S6,474,eO5 was
needed. whereas the budget allowance
was $6.043,200. which is what was
appropriated.
Meanwhile it was learned the F. b. L

under consideration for abandonment
are at Aberdeen. S. Oak: Peoria, III.
