Now as long as the act is the

on which IL shall be extended.

b" a majority vote of both

Little Interest
In Primary Here

Although Democratic and Repub-
lican Primaries will be held on Mon
day for one of the highest elective
offices in the nation-United States
Senator-there is little or no inter
est in the primaries in Washington
County, and it is doubtful if even
20 per cent of the voters will cast
their ballots.
Two of the three Republican can
didates each made a brief visit in
Hagerstown, but none of the five
Democratic candidates have Gas this

The Democratic candidates are:
Senator Willard Tydings (incum-
bent); Willis R. Jones, Baltimore
City; Charles Baden, Montgomery
county; Vincent F. Long, Baltimore,
and Stephen B. Peddicord, Balti-
more.
The three Republican candidates
are: Paul Robertson, Baltimore;
Blanchard Randall, Baltimore, and
Rives Matthews, Queen Anne.
Polls will be open from 7 a. m.

Paul Robertson
Meets With Voters

Paul Robertson, Republican can
didate for the Senatorial nominal
ton, was guest of honor at an infor-
NAL reception, held at the home of
County Commissioner Ernest w.
Miller, 801 Oak Hill avenue, Sunday
afternoon, at which some fifty local
Republicans were present.
Mr.. Robertson, who has just COM
pleted a swing round Western
Maryland, was introduced by Mr..
Miller.
After chatting informally with
those present, Mr. Robertson issued
the following statement to the
press:
Il am now convinced more than
ever before that the men and wo-
men of the Republican Party are

Senator Tydings
Answers Mr.. Jones

At ward political meeting, held
in Willis r. Jones own district in
Baltimore last week, Senator Mil
lard Tydings answered the charges
hurled against him by his opponent
for the Democratic Senatorial nomi-
nation.
Speaking for two hours, the Sena-
tor paused from time TO time and
demanded that Mr. Jones stand up
and give proof of his charges or
openly retract them, and at each
pause he waited until Mr.. Jones got
TO his feet
Taking the charges one by ore,
Senator Tydings literally ripped
them to pieces and before the
unique proceedings had advanced
very far, it was easy to sense that
the Senator had the confidence of
his audience.
Space will not permit full report
of the proceedings, but here are two
typical examples:
Referring to Mr.. Jones' inquiry to
Gov. O'Conor concerning a "ru-
mored" deal between the executive
and Senator Tydings about ex-
change of political support in the
1914 and 1916 elections, the Senator
asked, What do you intend to do
about this infamous falsehood-
either put up proof or haul down
your fag?"
At another point the Senator said:
Il ask you when you intend to
produce proof or retract the state
ment that used my office to feather
the nest of my law firm"
Senator Tydings wound up with a
review of his record in the United
States Senate and closed with these
words: 81 am no rubber stamp, nc
yes-man for anybody"

Child Health Day
To Be Observed

May /, which has been set aside
for the observance of Child Health
Day by special proclamation of the
President of the United States, is a
fitting time to take stock of your
child's health assets and liabilities
and, if necessary, take measures to
improve his physical condition, says
DR.. R. H. Riley, director of the
Maryland Department of Health.
The doctor advises that children
who have not had a complete physi-
cal examination within the last year
should be taken to their family
physician or to the nearest clinic for
a check-up. Even though they are
apparently well, periodic examina-
tons are advised for all youngsters
in order to detect trouble before it
becomes serious.

DURELY
Il Official
By BALLOT BOX


In the twenty years that l have
been political observer and writ
er, I cannot remember a President
ial election year quite the equal of
this one, and, unless miss my
guess, Bob Ripley will, in years to
come, trot it out as one of his ia
nous Believe 1t or Not's.'
Here we have two men-Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Governor
Dewey-both almost certain to be
the nominees of their respective
parties (and probably on the first
ballots, yet neither man is a de-
clared candidate for the Office.
While there is an element of
doubt as to whether President
Roosevelt will accept the nominal
ton after he has been drafted by
his party, it is generally accepted
that he will, and there does not
seem any question about Governor
Dewey accepting the call from his
party.
What then, is back of this strange
situation?
As 1 see it. there are two entirely
different reasons.
President Roosevelt does not need
to declare himself as a candidate
for reelection for a fourth term,
for the simple reason that the Dem
ocratic Party, by failing to even
consider anyone else for the nomi-
nation, has practically put it up to
President Roosevelt to either run
for Office again, or let the Republi-
can Party run away with the race.
I believe that the Democratic
Party's action can only mean one of
two things. Either the party be-
lieves that President Roosevelt is
the only Democrat capable Of being
President of the United States, or,
that he is the only candidate with a
chance to beat the Republican NOM
inee.
The Republican Party, on the
other hand, is in an entirely differ
ent boat.
Since early Spring, avowed can
didates for the highest Office in our
country = Governor Bricker and
Wendell Willkie-have been stump
ing the Countrywide other names
General Macarthur, Governor
Stassen and others-while not de-
clared candidates, have been put
forth as presidential timber. With
the withdrawal of Willkie, after his
defeat in Wisconsin, and the grow
ing delegation strength of Dewey
it becomes more and more apparent
that the Republican Party feels that
even with a wealth of material tc
draw from. Governor Dewey is the
man. But the governor himself, de-
termined to let the Party, from one
end of the country to the other
thoroughly canvas all possible can
didates, is determined to keep ir
the background until the Conven.
ton, when, if his party calls him
he will be ready.
s 10 you have the Democratic
Party, apparently considering only
one man, and the Republican Party
selecting from several considered
men, the one they believe to be the
strongest.
