OF Dorchester County, Is in q three
cofnered contest with Daniel H. Car
roll Of Baltimore City and J. Millard
Tawes Of Somerset County. Webb is
editor Of the Daily Banner and the
Cambridge Record. These "antis" are
putting . full State and county ticket
In the field. A result u that the

Senate contest as in State and

Tydings.
Labor For Lewis.
With Lewis occupying A. F. Of L.
headquarters, and with the labor vote
generally credited to him, there Is q
big block Of votes at the Phillips cam
neries which are causing concern to
the Iydings workers-although many
OF them have individually been prom
ised for Tydings. At the peak these
canneries employed 1900 to 5000 per-
sons, but that force is now greatly re-
duced and some Of those out Of 4
Job are blaming the President.
The Phillipses are Republicans, but
w. Grayson Winterbottom, the silent
partner and general manager, a DEM
ocrat, mas broken with the organiza-
ton this year and Is supporting the
ANTS" The claim Is made that the
cannery employees will vote as he tells
them to. That Is denied by some of
the workers.
Those supporting Senator Tydings
and Mayor Jackson follow the lead
ership of Emerson c. Harrington,
former Governor, and include many
omceholders: Russell P. Smith, serv-
ing his 29th year Is register of wills
and candidate for reelection; J. Fred
Dunn. clerk Of the court, serving 18th
year and seeking reelection, and John
8. Skinner, county treasurer. There
is considerable industry in the vicin-
ity OF Cambridge and throughout the
county. Only the organized labor
will be for Mr.. Lewis, it is said-the
ings.
OConor Group for Lewis.
In Somerset County the organiza-
ton Democrats are all for Senator
Tydings, while the O'Conor follow
ing is said to be working in Cooper
alton with Mr.. Lewis, especially in
the st. Peters section. This county
Is bitter against the President for
his interference" in the party pri-
mary ''of free State" and it is gen.
orally reported that the voters will
take it out on Lewis" This NAV be
largely talk, but 1t is certain that
they resent the President telling them
how to vote.
Roosevelt has made many votes
for Tydings," said Thomas S. Fitz-
gerald Of Saint Annes. q political
leader, who followed the President
on his Maryland trip. He explained
why the registered Democrats are not
doing much talking but will regis
ter a strong vote when they get into
the booth by themselves"-they have
been promised . new post ONCE and
do not want to lose any improvements
that may be coming out Of the bill
lions the Government Is going .tc
spend.
p. W. A. workers in Somerset Coun-
ty will cast q large percentage OF
their votes for Senator Tydings, ac-
cording to the poll taken by this OBJ
server. At least 90 per cent of the
farmers interviewed along the Eastern
Shore declare they will vote for Sen
ator Tydings. Some of those around

TYD|NCS SHARPENS|
INVASION Attack
Senator Also Answers Foe
on Milk Probe Charges,
Denying Defeat Tactics.
BY ]. A. O'LEARY.
Star Stan Correspondent.

BALTIMORE, Sept. 8.-Striking
vigorously at presidential intrusion
in state elections in the closing days
of his campaign for denomination,
Senator Tydings told q crowd OF
nearly a thousand persons in the
Towson Armory last night that the
American people already have spoken
out against it from California to
South Carolina"
The Towson rally was one Of four
that he addressed In and around the
city during the evening, and, in
stronger terms than he has used here
tofore, he called on Marylanders to
turn out at the polls next Monday
because Il want them to know from
Maine to California that the Free
State Is still free"
Senator Tydings described as "silly
and ridiculous" the latest charge Of
the opposition that he has q campaign
fund Of 100000.
The charge was communicated to
the Senate Campaign Committee yes
terday by Representative Lewis. Learn
Ing OF the charge while he was hurry
ing from one campaign meeting to
another, Mr.. Tydings declared that at
the present time his campaign head
quarters rs in the red" to the extent
Of about $4,000 Counting expendi-
lures already reported Of $4,000. this
would make the total outlay less than
$4,000.
The Senator emphasized, however,
that his headquarters will have to
raise some more money during the
next few days if it hopes to close the
campaign in the black.
Earlier In the evening, at Towson,
the Senator denied charges made
Tuesday night by his opponent. Re-
preventative Lewis, to the effect that
he had hindered the appropriations
for q Senate milk investigation in the
interest Of the farmers serveral years
ago, Mr.. Tydings declared that Sen
ator Byrnes Of South Carolina, chair
man Of the Senate Audit and Con-
troll Committee, which provides funds
for Senate inquiries had stated from
Spartanburg that the Maryland Sem
ator had supported the action Of the
Committee.

Waner, best man" among National
League hitters three times, was in
Pittsburgh today to bat out double
He donned his finest togs this morn
ing to be best man at radio wedding
Of his close friend, Evangelist Jack
Munyon, and this afternoon had .
date to discuss contract matters with
President William E. Benswanger OF
the Pirates.
One of Six Bucs Unsigned.
One Of six Pittsburgh players still
unsigned. Waner was invited here by
Benswanger after long distance nego-
tiations between Pittsburgh and Sara
sofa. Fla, proved productive.
Thus the Pirate prexy took no
chances Of misunderstanding" such
as kept his star outfielder out of uni
form last year until the club reached
Dallas, Tex. on its way back from
the San Bernardino, Calf, training
camp.
Almost an annual holdout for q
dozen years, big Poison's" case ap-
preached serious proportions a year
ago because he contended Benswanger
made a promise by telephone which
he did not keep in q proffered contract.
The prexy replied another man had
listened to the conversation at an
extension phone and could vouch no
such promise was made.
Debate in Newspapers.
There was much ado about "prin-
ciple," but Waner finally conceded he
had misunderstood the offer and
signed belatedly. Pirate salary figures
are never disclosed
Early this winter the two had a
newspaper debate, Benswanger an
nonuncing he was ready to trade any
OF his stars for new faces" and
Waner retorting from his Sarasota
golf links the Buccaneers really
wanted cheaper faces"

REDS, GILES FEELS
Cincinnati Official Says Club
Will Be Stronger, Though
Not in Race.
By the Associated Press.


TAMPA. Fla, Feb. 1s.-Warren
Giles, a short baldish man who looks
more a banker than the No.. front
ONCE man of the Cincinnati Reds,
arrived here today and quietly went
about the business of preparing the
spring training camp for the club he
represents.
anything can,, and probably will,
happen in the National League race
this year." he said.
But it looks a four-club race for
the pennant. New York, Chicago St.
Louis and Pittsburgh are too strong
for the second division clubs. The
Giants will be tough again. So will
the Cardinals and the Pirates"
AS to his own club, which dwelt
in the cellar most of the season, Giles
declared
I'VE will be stronger this year. I'm
sure. Bill McKechnie is one Of the
smart men in baseball I think we'll
make strong bid for fifth place"
He was unable to explain the Reds
nose dive last year.
1T was just one of those things.
Everything went wrong. I don't know;
don't believe the players themselves
know. I listened to all sorts of ex-
plantations. but none of them added
up to anything"
Paul Derringer, the big pitcher now
wintering in Sarasota, is the only hold
out on the Reds roster, Giles revealed.
Others who have not signed, but who
have expressed no dissatisfaction with
their contracts. he said, are Catchers
Ernie Lombardi and Spud Davis,
1nflelders Linus Frey and Baxter
Jordon and Outfielders Chick Hafey,
Dusty Cooke and George Davis.
