MARyL AND MERRy-GO-ROUND-

Washington, D. c., July Sen
ator Tydings received one Of the
most brusque rebuffs in his politi-
cal career whe nthe Senate Judi
ciary Committee, five minutes af-
ter listening to his high-pitched
and imprisoned TRADE against At
torney General Jackson, voted
unanimously to confirm Jackson
for the u. S. Supreme Court.
However, there was one victory
which Tydings won which escaped
general notice. And since the
Senator's strength in Maryland
has been built up largely through
patronage, this may mean more to
him, in the end, than blocking Bob
Jackson.
For in all the charge and counter
charge over the Supreme Court
appointment, Tydings finally man
aged to get his two candidates,
Thomas Everngam and Thomas
Kennedy, appointed as assistant
district attorneys in Baltimore.
These are the two jobs which Ty-
dings had been trying to fill thru
his friend Senator Radcliffe) for
approximately six months, and
which had been held up by the
White House.
However, ON the day that Ty-
dings first openly indicated his
opposition to Jackson's oorfirma-
ton, Matt MaGuire, assistant to
the Attorney General, gave Ty-
dings his two cherished pieces Of
political pap.

appeasement minded Mr. MaGuire

an interesting occurrence. Lying
on the pavement was a Gordon
bird dog, which a local fancier
classified as a fine specimen. This
is the story: A finely dressed ell
derby lady saw the dog, which had
the appearance of being hungry
and down and out, not to say friend
less. So she repaired to a nearby
store, bought some ground meat
and with it brought the animal
pan of water. 1t is needless to say
that the canine enjoyed the repasr,

JACKsON'S PRIVATE MEMO


A great deal has been written
about Senator Tydings' hot fight
to block Jackson's confirmation,
but one very significant point did
not leak out.
This is the fact that when Jack
son sat at the Senate Judiciary
Committee table opposite the irate
and raging Senator from Maryland
he had in his hand an interesting
memorandum to answer Tydings
But he never used it.
The content of this memo is high
ly interesting. 1t indicated that at
the very same time that Senator
Tydings was demanding criminal
prosecution of this columnist and
Robert S. Allen in connection with
the WPA road built to the entrance
of Tydings estate, Darlington, and
the WPA yacht basin built near
TydingS' town house in Havre de
Grace, the Justice Department
was looking into some interesting
manipulations by the Tydings law
firm in which the Senator played
an important part.
In fact the memorandum which
Attorney General Jackson had at
the Senate hearing was demand
by a prominent Marylander that
Senator Tydings himself be prose-
cuted for violation of Title 10, U.
S. Code Section 203, entitled Gre
ceiving Pay By Member of Con-
gress in Matters Affecting United
States"
In other words at the time Ty-

"TYDINGS BENEFITED"

Mr.. Jackson, at the last minute.
decided not to give this memoran-
dunn to the Senate Committee
He informed the committee that
it was not the policy of the Justice
Department to become involved in
the numerous fights between
newspapers and men in public life. -
And when Tydings declared that
the WPA road and WPA yacht
basin were not on his property,
Jackson snapped back: "The infer
ence is clear that you were the
beneficiary"
Also revealed in the official FE1
record was the fact that Tydings'
partner, Major Robert H. Archer,
received a $4,000 fee in connection
with one of these WPA projects
which benefited" the Senator;
and that the Havre de Grace voters
were induced to approve a bond is
sue for various improvements with
out knowing that the yacht basin
adjacent to the Senator's property
was involved.
In Attorney General Jackson
unpublished memorandum, how
ever, was set forth some very in
teresting data. 1t recalled first
that it is not lawful for a member
of Congress to receive compensa-
ton in relation to any controversy

demand that Tydings also be prose-
cuted criminally.

HANGOVERS
By
LITTLE HEISkELL

Judging from the early start
made by several candidates for
the County Commissioners posts.
there will be no dearth of candi-
dates for these positions, come
1942. 1t is believed that the pres
ent members of the Board will
run again, and that makes five.
Add to this number the names of
former State Senate Ernest w.
Miller, Clarence Eldrdec, local
dairyman and Clarence Mason,
Zig Pool District and you'II have
eight. And it's still long time
before the polls open.
Motor Vehicle Commissioner
w. Lee Eloin is getting tough
with the boys who ignore stop"
signs, hog the road and otherwise
step on the gas and depend en-
tireIy on Luck to keep 'em out
OF hospitals and morgues. The
Commissioner has announced
that motorists will drive careful
~ over the Fourth of July hoIi-
days - or else. And that "eIse"
is revocation of licenses. There
will be no fines or reprimands
The little card carried in the bill
fold by all drivers will be mailed
directly to the Commissioner
following accidents and he will,
thereupon, forget that he has re-
ceived 'em.

We have had countless "drive
carefully" campaigns, spent heaps
Of iron men trying to educate
the reckless drivers and still the
heavy toll continues. Efein's
plan to hit 'em where it hurts
most-Ioss of their Iicense-~ill
be extremely painful. If he goes
through with his announced plan
the sane motorist will pin a blue
ribbon on his chest. If he backs
down this column will be the first
to give him a ride-and not on
the highways. The idea of purg-
ing the roads of reckless drivers
should be year-round program.
If Chairman Flynn of the
Democratic National Committee
has his way, all patronage in the
various states will be dispensed
by the National Committeeman.
In other words congressman and
Senators will have little, if any
thing to say about who gets the
gravy. That little job will be
left to the National Committee
men and in this State it would
be National Committeeman Will

Town.
A lot of folks have not yet
tumbied to the fact that Lane is
one Of the top political figures in
the State and is certainly no
stranger to the National Admin
istration. He can "make 'em" or
"break 'em" and this fact is we'll
