Democrats Name
1.B. Cash 10 Direct
Maryland Drive
Young Stote choirmon
Sets Honor; Advisory
Board to Be Chosen

Democratic chieftains in Mary
land turned their attention today
to selection of a campaign advisory
committee after bestowing upon
Truman B. Cash, 43-year-old West
minister insurance man, the task Of
leading their party against opposi-
ton forces this fall.
Organization of the committee is
expected to be carried out within
the next few days, after which the
battle to line up the Free State for
President Roosevelt and senatorial
and House candidates will begin.
The selection of Mr.. Cash, new
chairman of the Democratic State
Central Committee, was announced
by w. Preston Lane, Democratic
national committeeman and former
Attorney General for Maryland, yes
terday afternoon following series
of conferences in Washington be-
tween party leaders and the States
congressional delegates.
Cash Choice Unanimous.
Mr.. Cash was unanimously chosen
by the conferees, who included Sem
ators TydingS and Radcliffe, Mayor
Howard w. Jackson of Baltimore,
former National Committeeman
Howard Bruce and Maj. E. Brooke
Lee of Silver Spring, leader of the
Democratic Organization in Mont
gomery County.
The group also announced that
Mr.. Lane is to be treasurer of the
campaign organization.
1.-THE campaign for all Demo-
cratic candidates from Maryland"
Mr.. Lane said, lis shaping up well.
I'VE understand that active DEM
ocrats who have carried the burden
of the campaign work in recent
years will be on the firing line for
the national and congressional can
didateS this year.
Eve all agree that Truman Cash,
who was elected chairman of the
State Central Committee unani-
mously in June, should serve as
chairman of the State campaign
and that the newly elected national
committeeman should serve as
treasurer of the State campaign"
Several weeks ago a trial balloon
suggesting Gov. O'Conor as man
ager of the Roosevelt campaign
was batted about in Democratic
circles briefly, then collapsed.
Led Young Democrats.
Subsequently the Governor an
nounced press of State duties, to-
gether with his desire to remove
his activities with the State De-
Tense Council from any hint of
politics, would prevent his taking
on the added burden of running
the campaign.
Mr.. Cash, a comparative newcomer
In State Democratic circles, first be-
came active six years ago, organ
izing Carroll County for the Mary
land Young Democratic Clubs. The
county was predominantly Repub-
lican at that time and went Re-
publican in the 1894 elections by
$500 votes.
Four years later, in the 1888 guber-
material primary, Cash and his
Young Democrats carried the county
for Mayor jackson by 1854 votes over
Gov. OConor.
Later, in the general election,
Carroll County went for Gov.
OConor by 299 Notes.-The first time
in 81 years that section of the State
had given a majority to a Demo-
cratic gubernatorial candidate. |

STOCKHOLM, June Is (P,-The
march of the Red Army into
Llthuanla today under a forced
grant OF free passage" may be the
1orerunner of Russian move to
establish a half-million troops near
the German border, foreign in
tormant said today.
Ihls informant, for several wears
resident in Latvia, said the Rus
slams intended to garrison the
strength of the Red Army in
Lltnuania, Estonia and Latvia. three
Baltic neighbors from whom Moscow
Wrung military concessions last fall,
Ihere has been much unofficial
speculation in Scandinavia that
Russia, allied with Germany in an
accord of practical cooperation, >
might now regret, or consider
divergences from, this accord be-
cause of concern over Nazi expan-
sion in Scandinavia.
There is little likelihood of re-
sistance from Estonia and Latvia,
the foreign observer said, since Rus
sian troops in the three Baltic
states already equal or surpass their
combined forces.
The prospect that Russia would
expand her demands to include
Estonia and Latvia was believed
likely here, particularly in view of
the Soviet ultimatum today accus-
ing the three countries of entering

little country bordering Germany on
East Prussia-of an unlimited num-
Der OF troops of the Red Army.
So far as was disclosed officially
this force was ordered stationed in
the most important centers only in
sufficient" strength to provide for
the "implementing" of the Soviet
Lithuanian mutual assistance agree
ment.
To Moscow alone, however. was
LETT the decision as to how many
men would be sufficient.
1t was on the basis of the mutual
assistance pact-signed October 10,
1889, after Russias seizure of East
ern Polish territory while Germany
was occupying its western sections
that Moscow moved suddenly today
Accusing the Lithuanians of kid
naping Soviet airmen, of the muir
der OF a member of the Soviet
Army, of entering a Lithuanian
Latvlan-EStonian military alliance
hostile to Russia and of preparing
an attack on Soviet garrison in
Lithuania, Russia demanded the
right to send troops unmolested
across the frontier.
She also demanded successfully
that Lithuania replace it's existing
government with one willing" to
restrain the enemies" of the pact
and that the Lithuanian Minister
OF Internal Affairs and the director
OF political police be prosecuted "as
those directly responsible for pro-
vocational actions against the Soviet
garrison in Lithuania."
The LithuanianS were given a
deadline of 10 o'clock this morning:
at 9 O'Clock, Moscow announced,
they gave in.
In the agreement of October, 1899,
the Red Army was granted the
right to establish garrisons at un-
specified points in Lithuania for
the announced purpose of protect
ing the country's frontiers. In re-
turn, the Soviet Union ceded to
Llthuania Wilma (Wilno), the an
clent capital of that once-powerful
country, and a surrounding area,
Evening star., 1940-06-16

into a military alliance hostile to
the Soviet Union.
The little Baltic neighbors bowed
IN turn last autumn to Soviet de-
mands for the right to establish
military and naval bases within
their borders. Then came Finland S
turn at the Kremlin conference
table. The Firms baked. and were
battered into submission by the
Red Army.
Army Directed Toward Reich.
With the move of the Red Army
into Lithuania and the concentra-
ton of troops in the Russian-oc-
j cupled part of Poland the greater
part OF Russian troops are now di-
rected toward the German border" !"
the correspondent of the Stockholm
Tidningen reported tonight from
KaunaS.
In story on the swift develop
ments following the Soviet ultima
tum TO Llthuania the correspondent
declared that observers in Kaunas
believed that Soviet Russia was con-
slderlng engaging in the war, hav-
ing the last word, giving the deci-
sion in the war"
More conservative views here were
that Russia merely was expanding
her sphere of influence in the Baltic,
where she already has bases, that
she has moved now while the other
powers are too busy elsewhere to
raise an objection.
Fear Attack on Germany.
The Tdningens correspondent
declared that some Germans in
Kaunas were concerned because
they expect an attack against Ger
many Immediately and are afraid
Germany would have to direct some
troops eastward from the western
front"
He added that at is believed signi-
flcant that the Soviet ultimatum
was sent to Lithuania after discus
sion with the British and French
Ambassadors at Moscow"
Evening star., 1940-06-16

France are not all that interest US.
There are others-for example, the
fortified naval base of Dakar, on
the west coast of Africa, the point
at which most of the African Bra
zlllan air services take off. Suppose
this position were demanded by the
Germans? We should be hard put
to it to find a legal excuse for
obJectlng, and yet the Germans at
Dakar might become a deadly men,
ace to our interests in South Amer
lea; especially if supported by a
stutzpunkt in French Guiana
whose tentacles might run out
through all Northern Brazil.
1t would be difficult to imagine a
more remote position, and one less
likely, In the mode of thought of
last year, to interest the United
States, than French Somaliland. Yet
were this colony to be turned over
to Germany's Italian allies. it might
result in the British and French
fleets in the Eastern Mediterranean
being bottled up between two
strongly held, mined, air-dominated
straits and presently reduced to
surrender or elf-destruction. ANY,
thing which so gravely affects the
naval balance of power has the
greatest interest for this country.
U. S. Is Affected.
In the Pacific. the French hold
the Marquesas Islands, important
as the chief insular stepping stone
between the Japanese positions in
the Marshalls and the Panama
Canal. Any change in the status
of these islands is again of great
Importance to us. There also is the
tiny French possession of Clipperton
Island, right on the main route be-
tween Panama and our West Coast
ports.
We are, therefore, vitally, and
from many angles, interested in
what happens now in France. If
the French Army continues to fight,
if it can extend the time of its re-
sistance, every day is gain. There
is little or nothing that we can dc
to aid that will affect this outcome
which will probably be decided very
soon. If it can no longec resist, will
France make peace? Or will there
merely be a military armistice, af-
fecting Europe alone, as in Nor
way, Belgium, Holland? Will re-
Sistance continue in the African and
other possessions of France? Will
the French Army and fleet in the
Near East continue as active bellig-
erents? Will the French fleet in the
west be surrendered to the Ger
mans, or will it retire to Dakar or
Martinique? These are questions of
great importance to us, and to
which we may have the answers
very soon.

An investigation is under way,

Mr.. Hull also said attention was

Baron Won Spiegel denied
yesterday that he had made this

viewed him Friday. In reply,
James E. Crown, editor of the
States, said we have absolute
confidence in our reporter and
the veracity of his report.')
Statements Conflict.
Secretary Hull commented that
there had been conflicting state
ments in both cases, and said this
country was endeavoring to as
semble facts which would show what
the truth was.
He discussed the cases after in

Don Ascanio Colonna, Italian Am

statement that Italian consular Off

their activities to their legal con-

Mr.. Hull declined to say what
