One of the Presidents intimates

BY the AsseeIatsd Press

BALTIMORE, Nov. T. Mary
lands Republicans split sharply to-
day over responsibility for their
lack of general participation in the
party's national sweep, even before
final returns on the Senate race.

the Republican senatorial candi-
date. demanded the designations Of
Galen L. TAFT, chairman of the
Republican State Central Commit
tee, and Jacob France, Republican
National Committeeman.
The statement calling for these
designations, adopted at a Balti-
more hotel yesterday, was accom-
panied by call for prompt. reor-
ganization of the party in Mary

otaged to prevent leadership from
slipping away from Mr.. TAFT, Mr..
France and Mayor McKeldin, the
party's unsuccessful gubernatorial
candidate.
"Inept Leadership" Charged.
The statement said, THE elec-
tion proved beyond a reasonable
doubt that the Republican Party
In Maryland is the victim of inept
and incapable leadership.
Had there been any semblance
Of capable leadership Mr.. Markey
would have beaten Gov. .O'Conor
decisively in both the city and
counties. Even capable leadership
could not have elected Mr.. Nickel
din.
"On the face of the returns, it is
inescapable that the Republican
leadership, as represented by the
Mayor, the chairman of the State
Central Committee and the national
committeeman, did not desire to lose
its prestige through the election of
q Senator"
Would Lead Party.
A Republican Senator by custom
would assume the State leadership
Of the party.

have the vote counted as cast, Mr.
Caudle pointed out. The department
emphasizes the civil right to vote
and 1t seems incongruous here to
have that right denied, the bar pres
ident declared.
The District has a large civil
service population, an intelligent
group of women and men. Persons
have lived here all their lives and
paid taxes on land and personal
property, as well as Federal taxes,
and still are denied the ballot box,
Mr.. Caudle said.
Cites High Courts View.
Both the Supreme Court and Con-
gress, he said. have laid emphasis
on the fact that those who have
the qualifications should be per-
mitted to register and vote and
have that vote counted.
Mr.. Caudle said: ITO me it seems
ironical for the Department of JUS
tice to be enforcing a law through
out the United States. guarantee
ing all qualified citizens the right
to register and to vote, while here
in the District its people are dis
franchised.
ITO me 1t is incongruous and
fantastic for the Nations Capita
to be out Of bounds without voice
in either the national or local gov
ernment."
THE plebiscite held in Washing
ton clearly demonstrates that those
who live here are determined to
have direct representation in Con-
gress and have a direct part in the
selection of the men who are to
govern them and have a say in the
form of government under which
they live and support. I emphat-
ically indorse the efforts of the
citizens of the District of Columbia
in their struggle to win the right
to express themselves by ballot
both for national apd local repre-
sentatives."

United States Commissioner Need
ham c. Turnage said:
Il voted Tuesday for both prop
ositions 0ocal suffrage and national
representation. I have lived here
since 1908 and have felt I would
like to have some type of expression
in our own affairs and more partic-
ularly in our local affairs. All of
us understand that this is Federal
jurisdiction and that in things
which are transacted here We have
q common interest with the States.
I'VE should have a. right Of ex-
