WADE LIEUTENANTS SHIFT TO RITCHIE ‘Three Chiefs of Western Maryland Anti Leader Change Support. @pecial Dispatch to The Star. HAGERSTOWN, Md, April 5.—Op- position to the fourth-term candidacy | of Gov. Albert C. Ritchle in Western Maryland was removed this afternoon, when three lieutenants of Dr. J. Hubert Wade, former chairman of the Demo- cratic State central committee in! Maryland and arti-Ritchie leader on| the Western Shore of the State, deserted | Wade and telegraphed the governor | asking him to announce his candidacy for another term. Dr. Wade's name, however, was conspicuous by its ab- sence from the telegram sent the gov- ernor, but Western Shore leaders sald that any further opposition by Dr. Wade would be useless with his three lieu- tenants deserting him. It is understood from advance infor- mation that his support in Western Maryland had collapsed, as well as that on the Eastern Shore, and was respon- sible for Senator McIntosh's announce- ment today of withdrawal of his can- didacy for governor. The decision on the part of the three Wade lieutenants, J. O. Snyder, George A. Reed and Dr. D. C. R. Miller, in join- ing with the Ritchie faction headed by Maj. W. Preston Lane, jr., also heals a breach of long standing, which had the Democratic party in Washintgon County badly split for several years, and will increase chances of election of its County candidates next Fall, leaders de- clare OTHER CANDIDATES IN FIELD.

Bpecial Dispatch to The Star. BALTIMORE, Md., April 5—Follow- ing the withdrawal of David G. McIn- tosh, jr., as a candidate for the Demo- cratic gubernatorial nomination, a num- ber of his backers and other anti- Ritchie workers are casting about for a new candidate around whom they hope to rally the followers of the Balti- more County State Senator, who insisted up to the last minute that he “was in the fight until the votes were count- ed in the primaries.” Among those being tioned today as rominently men- e Gov, Altehie. in-the September op] Gov.

SIR RONALD'S ADVENT REVIVES STUDY OF DIPLOMATIC SYSTEMS Briton, Trained in Long| Career, Reveals Difference From U. S. Method. Lahor’s Lack of Antipathy to Old School Theories Also Is Shown. BY WILLIAM HARD. Various reflections are aroused by the clear fleld for the renomination of Gov. Ritchie, who 18 expected to make for mal announcement of his candidacy next week, folowing the presentation of petitions signed by prominent and lead- ing citizens in all sections of the State asking him to run for a fourth term. Of those mentioned as possible candi- auwes, Judge Dennis is the most out- standing, but he has repeatedly an- nounced that he is not a candidate for any office, preferring to remain on the bench to which he was appointed by Gov. Ritchie. While it is a known fact that Mr. Bruce, who has been & consistent back- er of Gov. Ritchie in all his contests, would like to become governor of the State, it is held doubtful that he would under any circumstances enter the pri- mary against Gov. Ritchie, and as a matter of fact it was on his insistence that Mr. McIntosh withdrew from the Tare. Of the other two Representativé Gam- brill stands out as the most likely, and while he is known as being anti-Ritchie, politicians here do not believe he would throw his hat into the ring at this late stage of the game, after sentiment has become crystalized for the renomi- nation of Gov. Ritchie, and certainly not unless he was assured a nucleus of organized support. SHERMAN IS NAMED TO HEAD MASTERS @ucceeds C. R. Bartlett as Leader of Masonic Branch in District. George L. Sherman, deputy grand master, was unanimously elected illus- trious grand master of Royal and Select Masters in the District of Columbia at the stated assembly of the Grand Coun- cil of R. & S.

C. The first is that the British Labor govemmem seems not to be penetrated y such antipathy either to belted edrls or to old-school theories regarding the value of professional diplomats. ! Sir Ronald is the fifth son of the twenty-sixth Earl of Crawford. Earls in Great Britain seem to have a ca- pacity for protracting themselves into more ¥enenflons than any other fac- tion of the nobility. A brother of Sir Ronald now is the twenty-seventh Earl of Crawford and additionally “the pre- mier earl of Scotland.” The logic of the situation thus be- comes apparent. A proletarian Social- ist government in Great Britain is about to send an Ambassador to the great equalitarian democratic common g;ovle‘s Government of the Western ‘orld. It naturally sends a brother of “the premier earl of Scotland.” Formidable Opponent. And it makes no mistake. It would be difficult to call Sir Ronald decadent. No liberty-loving American truck driver is likely to take any liberty with him. He looks to be a great many inches more than six feet tall and his lati- tudinal extensiveness is appropriate to his longitu one. It would be minimizing Sir Ronald to call him burly. He will be able to take care of himself with Wrwm (g’nonznb of the effete fal of the Old World. It is said that he clalms to play goli with more ferocity than skill. antagonist in anything, he certainly would seem to be at least formidable. To this formidableness he adds a quick sensitiveness, a quick humor, an unassertiveness of self and an accom- plished consideration of others. He possesses, in other words, precisely the qualities that a representative of one country in another, if he is to like and be liked, and if he is to learn anything | K. C. B. and accomplish anything, should have. Mannerisms Interest U. S. How much of this arrived manner and method in Sir Ronald is by in- stinct? How much of it is by training and experience? shall say? One can only remark that the training and the experience in his case are of the utmost interest to Americans puzzled by the problems presented by the recent upgrowth and some of the recent set- backs of the professional diplomatic service of the United States. ‘We now have 15 American Ambassa- dors and 35 American Ministers abroad. Of the ministers, 20 are from our diplo- matic career service and 16 are from outside that service. Of the Ambassa- dors, six are from the career service and nine are from outside it. Many career men have resigning from the lower levels of our dip! on the ground that their chances of at- mnm to the highest levels are greatly limited by the political cles and demands to which & President neces- sarily is subjected. Many critics of career diplomats, on the other hand, maintain that amateurs with no tech- nical diplomatic experience, but with sound, long, nmumLJ;olmul home training, are better fitted than most of the career diplomats are for the high- est foreign . In the midst of this argument it is instructive, or at any rate entertaining, to observe contempo- rary British diplomatic practice. Britain Uses Different System. Britain has 37 Ministers abroad. They are all diplomatic professionals. She has 11 Am| lors abroad. also are all of them diplomatic professionals. This was so under_ the Conservative government of Mr. Baldwin. It con- tinues to be so under the Labor gov- ernment of Mr. Macdonald. Sir Ronald Lindsay is a perfected ex- pression of the Britlsh system. His complexity of professional training is almost appalling. - “He entered the British service of dip- lomatic career at the age of 21 in 1898.

He became Ambassador to Germany. He then was restored to. London as per- manent undersecretary of state in 1928. That permanency melted away rather rapidly, and Sir Ponald was dispatched across the Atlantic once more to his present post of Ambassador to the United States, having completed 31 years of certainly variegated diplomatic observation. Labor Retains Diplomats. Well it is haps idle to try to say whether the %filfil tem is the better. The circumstances of the two situations are widely dif- ferent. It would seem fairly clear, how- ever, that although the British Labor Party when out of office ranted a great deal against “diplomats,” it is still de- termined to retain their professional talents while it is engaged in holding office and in bearing governmental re- sponsibility. Which now gives us, from that ami- able Laborite, James Ramsay Mac- donald, that stalwart embodiment of diplomatic continuity, Sir Ronald Charles Lindsay, P. C, G. C. M. G,, . . V. O.

WHEATLEY, Staft Correspondent of The Star. | ROCKVILLE, Md., April 5.—Facing a tense situation in the political arena of Montgomery County over the charges and counter charges flowing back and forth between representatives of the twc factions of Democrats, the March term grand jury will reassemble on Monday. However, it is not probable that it will po immediately into its recessed in- vestigation, which was demanded of it by the county commissioners and E. Brooke Lee, when it convenes the first of the week, as State’s Attorney Robert Peter, jr., indicated that since it re- cessed an ‘unusual situation has arisen in the county involving the arrest of a number of persons on criminal charges, which he desires to d! of before the inquisitorial body aga s into the investigation of county affairs. Jail Cases Demand Action. Mr. Peter sald that there were a num- ber of people now in the Rockville Ja! whose cases would demand the atten tion of the grand jury, and he would like to have the body dispose of these cases before it goes again into the mat- ter of the charges alleged to have been made l‘linst the county officials by :.he !:oc ville Independent. It is the nves! these latter charges which the county officials demanded and which served to keep the present grand jury in session | long past the usual life of such bodies in_the county. However, Mr. Peter said that the mat- ter rests with the grand jury itself as to whether it would first handle the criminal cases now before the State's attorney, but he indicated that he would recommend this course. If the grand jury complies with this, it prob- ably wi fore it gets back to its investigation of county affairs and the allegations of malfeasance and misteasance in office No Lull in Politics. ‘While neither side has shown signs of giving any ground in the fight, and the move for an investigation has served to draw the political lines sharply, there seems to have been no lull in the tical affairs.

April 5.— Trial of Lawrence Leroy Brady, Wash- ington automobile mechanic, on & charge of first-degree murder as a re- sult of the Seat Pleasant bombing, is the outstanding case of interest to the public as the April term of Prince Georges County Circuit Court convenes. The first session of the term is sched- uled to open at 10 a.m. Mond-fir. when Judge Joseph C.

YOUNG PLAN Pact Governing War Deb Settlement Is Made Law in France. By the Associated Press. PARIS, April 5—~The Young plan, drawn up at Paris last Spring by the financial experts of the United States and other powers involved in the great war and approved by two conferences at the Hague, today became & law as far as Prance is concerned. With only 8 dissenting votes, French Senate this evening adopted a resolution ratifying the plan, which was approved a week ago in the Chamber of Deputies by a vote of 530 to 55. The vote today was 284 to 8. The legislative assemblies of Ger- many and France now have approved the Young plan, bitterly attacked by nationalistic elements in both countries. Great Britain, Italy, Japan and Bel- glum will probably follow suit rapidly. With the approval of the plan. the last fear that French troops would not evacuate the Rhineland by June 30 dis- appeared. Some Senators of the mod- erate groups, including former President Millerand, objected to French evacua- tion before the Reich had shown a dis- posit:on to execute the plan faithfully. But they finally gave way before an eloquent appeal from Premier Andre ‘Tardieu, who asked them to adopt the plan as the only means for arriving at a satisfactory understanding with Ger- many and the other reparations cred- itors the .
