Howard Bruce, Democratic national committeeman for Maryland, issued a statement here yesterday expressing confidence that Gov. Albert C. Ritchie “may look for support” from Michigan, South Carolina and Rhode Island in his race for the Democratic presidential nomination. Issued through the Ritchie-for- President Committee of Maryland, the statement said the three States in which Ritchie recently visited and made campaign speeches had all “shown tre- mendous enthusiasm” for the Maryland Governor. “Reports from all parts of the United States,” Bruce added, ‘“demonstrate very plainly that the Governor's frank- ness and candor in discussing public questions is s g a sympathetic chord not only among Democrats, but among all thinking men who this year | are looking for a man of ideas and convictions whom they may support.” Howard M. Rice, secretary of the France-for-President National Commit- tee, issued a statement asserting the advisers of President Hoover “do not | dare allow his name to come before the rank and file of Republican voters for their approval.” The spokesman for Joseph I. France of Maryland, a Republican presidential candidate, based his contention on the fact that the Presidnt did not enter the preference primary in Ohio, con- tenting himself with a contest for del- egates alone. U. S. CLERKS COOL TO PAY CUT MOVES Mrs. Worrell Declares Recent In- creases Have Gone to Favored Few. Government employes are not gravely concerned over attempts in Congress to ban promotions in the 1933 fiscal year because the classification act already has been nullified by lack of appropria- tions to carry out its provisions, accore ing to a statement issued by Mrs, Ma: garet Hopkins Worrell, president of the League of the American Civil Service. “Where the agitation against striking out the ‘increase’ clause in appropria- tion bills arose is not definitely known,” Mrs. Worrell declared, “but_the fact is that those who understand the situation know that it really matters very little to Government emloyes in general (in so far as promotions are concerned) whether the clause prohibiting promo- tions is left in or stricken out of appro- priation bills for the very good reason that it has not been effective (except for a favored few) for quite some time. “The classification law has been nullified by non-appropriations with which to carry its provisions into effect and with the paring to the bone of all appropriations for the next fiscal year there could be no possible hope of any promotions in Government service. Therefore, there is no more reason for striking it out than for leaving it in appropriation bills except for the effect it may have on the country.” Mrs. Worrell disputed the recent statement of Representative Blanton, Democrat of Texas, that most Govern- ment employes get and take the 30 days annual leave and the 30 days sick leave granted them. She cited statistics pre- | pared by chief clerks of virtually ell Government departments showing that the average annual leave is 24.6 days a year an dthe average annual sick leave is77.05 days. “It can readily be seen,” she declared, “that neither the annual nor the sick leave privilege has been abused oy Government employes.” BILL ASKS POPULAR VOTE ON NOMINEES La Follette Proposes National Presidential Primary in Ad- vance of Conventions. By the Associated Press. A Nation-wide popular vote by which the people of each State might express their choice for the presidential nomi- nation in advance of the national po- litical conventions has been proposed anb a bill introduced by Senator La Lette. The Soung ‘Wisconsin Republican sc- companied it with a statement saying “the bill affords the only means avail- able by which the people of the United States may their register choice of candidates for President in the 1932 election.” Dacflbln!nnnnou-mmau- ure, La Follette said there is en ive Republican stre; in both Progresst hmueaotcangrusmg&sl it this ses- sion if either the Republican or Demo- cratic leadership will support it. “Unless the American people are af- forded & popular vote in advance of the Chicago conventions,” La Follette sald, “the Republican nominee will be named by delegates controlled by the use of Federal patsonage. | “The Democratic nominee will be| named under the two-thirds rule as the | result of secret deals and trades among | the bosses of powerful political ma- chlne.a 1;!1 :he larger cities of the coun- “Under existing conditions # cannot truthfully be said that the people of | this country have any effective voice {in the selection of candidates for Presi- dent of the United States. The con- vention system has degenerated into a . * 0 ¢ “This system has grown worse instead of better within recent years. At the | Chicago conventions in 1932 no vestige |of effective popular control over the | nominations of either party will re- | main.” | Pointing out it is “strongly contend- |ed” that a constitutional amendment | would be needed to abolish the conven- | tions and establish a national presi- dential primary, La Follettte explained | that under his proposal the vote would not be legally binding on the delegates, but said he believed it would control! their actlon as the popular vote for lPreblde.nt controls the action of the electoral college. (REFUSAL OF WARFARE i PICTURES IS CRITICIZED Putnam Says Idea of Army Pase-| ing on Photographs to Be Pub- lished Seems Unsound. Refusal of the War Department to release for publication pictures showing the gruesome results of warfare led to criticism in a statement today by George Palmer Putnam, New York | publisher. Putnam quoted Ma). Gen. Irving J. Carr, :&ler of the slgn';l Corps, as say- ing readers may see the ph ic records of the “pretty” side omm not the horrible aspects, because that would be against public lcy. ‘The publisher said in he thought the pictures should be Holds Governor May Look for' avaflable “to any reputable citizen ready to pay the routine fee for their use,” and that it “seems unsound that the Army should decide what war pho- tographs a publisher may use.” THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, Flowers bank the bandeau foundation of this tilted brim model Diamond st feather fan at a point of chi Ballibuntl sailor with a list to starboard and patent leather band, $7.50 An exquisite creation of Mademoiselle Marthe is this imported model, $50 “Le Breton”—the French call it—but it reminds us of our childhood ssilor with its upturned brim, $12.78 Vogue says: “The Easter Bonnet Is Back” And, Vogue goes on to Say—“The Easter bonnet is back, with all the pleasure associated with that idea, and none of the fears.” And these smart hats are expressive of the present restrained chic. ...The newest brims are rolled off the face ...Flowers, after a long exile, have come back ...
