"Only in this way" he con-

Commander Madison expressed
confidence that the request would
be complied with to correct what
we regard as a grievous and very
fortunate error"
Jewish War Veterans through
out the country recently were
angered and disturbed as they
spotted the A. P. story which had
found its way into newspapers
from coast to coast.
The inaccuracy stemmed from
the fact that a representative of
another group, which presented
a scroll to Mr.. Cohn, was intro
duced at the dinner as a member
of the Jewish War Veterans. The
scroll had not the remotest con-
nection with JWV.
The Jewish War Veterans of the
USA is the oldest active veterans
organization in the United States.
It was founded to foster the prin-
ciples of democracy and freedom
and serve as the Patriotic Voice
of American Jewry.

said in his charge to the %
member panel headed by Clifford

dation of our Government"
Judge Gray said, .'is free and
untrammeled elections"
Free Elections Vital.
eff the voice of the people is
to direct the kind of Govern
ment we have, it is vital that
elections be free Of intimidation
or use of money" the judge said.
Judge Gray added that news
paper stories indicated money
passing and he remarked, ANY
such activity is a violation of
election laws and merits your
consideration. IF you find that
facts warrant it, you are justi-
fed in bringing indictments"

that State Senator James C.
Monroe of Charles County
and three other Republican
politicians whose names have
not been disclosed gave 81 or So
to several persons after they
voted at White Plains.
Eight Sign Statements.

proper authority.
An investigation of the allega-
tions has been started by States
Attorney Robert T. Barbour and

ensue must originate In Charles
