"/ COVERNOR DENIES ALLINPOLICE QUL Senate Committee to Report Findings to Body Mon- day or Tuesday. BY the Associated Press. ANNAPOLIS, Md, March 4— The Senate State Police Investigating Committee began & review of the evi- dence today, after hearing Gov. Harry W. Nice brand as “absolutely and ut- terly unfounded” all charges made in testimony “as they apply to me.” After & 4-minute committee con- ference with the Governor in his re- ception room in‘ the State House yesterday, Senator John D. C. Duncan of Baltimore County, committee chair- man, said: “The inquiry has ended, unless something unforeseen turns up. We feel that we have sufficient upon which to base a report to the Senate as a whole to justify such remedies as we will at the proper time suggest. We hope to have our report com- pleted by Monday night or Tuesday morning.” Only Few Present. Only a few persons were present yes- terday when the committee met Gov. Nice. The meeting had by agreement been closed to all but members of the Legislature and members of the press. The Governor, after greeting the com- mittee members, read the following statement: “You have asked me to give you my views concerning what should be done to bring about order and re-establish discipline in the Maryland State police force. “My answer is that I have selected as superintendent a gentleman of out- standing reputation and unquestioned ability. That selection has met with spontaneous and widespread approval. That you gentlemen of the Senate have the most implicit confidence in Maj. Munshower is evidenced by the fact that you have unanimously confirmed | his appointment. | Urge More Power, “Therefore, it follows, in my opinion, that if you give him authority com- | parable to that now vested in the police | commissioner for Baltimore City and an increase in the personnel sufficient ! to properly patrol the highways of | Maryland, Maj. Munshower will work | out his own destiny and bring the | Maryland State constabulary to the | highest degree of efficiency it has ever known.” “I have no desire to make any | further statements other than the | statements I have given to the press, | with which you are all familiar. I do | not think it would be in good taste | | for me to discuss personalities.” Senator John G. Calian, Democrat, | second Baltimore, asked: “Then you feel that under Maj. Munshower dissension in the depart- ment will end and harmony will be | restored?” Gov. Nice Agrees. | “Unquestionably so,” the Governor | 1 replied. A committee member later pointed | out that the Governor by his answer J to the Callan question had tacitly ad- | mitted there had been dissension and | lack of harmony in the department. | and also by his statement recom- | | mending increased power to the super- | | intendent “to bring about order and | re-establish discipline.” { The Senate Finance and House | Ways and Means Committees already | have voted to strike from the Gov- | ernor’s 1938-9 budget appropriations | | to allow for the employment of 50 | additional State officers. The sug- | gestion for increasing the power of | | the superintendent is in line with a | | similar thought expressed by Senate | President Lansdale G. Sasscer, Sen- | ator J. Allan Coad and Delegate Kent R. Mullikin, majority floor leaders, and other members of the Legislature. Senator Ridgley P. Melvin, Demo- crat, of Anne Arundel has a bill drawn designed to increase the authority of the superintendent to in- | clude the right of hiring, firing, pro- | motion and demotion. | [$100 Democrat Dinner Tickets Selling Rapidly Elaborate Menu Is Ready for ‘Victory’ Meal Tonight. Democrats are snapping up the $100-a-plate tickets for the “victory banquet” at which President Roosevelt will speak tonight at the Mayflower Hotel, Democratic Treasurer W. Forbes Morgan announced today. Here is the menu for that banquet: Diamond-back terrapin soup, croute au chaud farci (pastry), Madeira wine, celery, olives, pecans. Fish course (pompano) with egg- plant and almonds, sherry. Breast of capon on ham, artichokes chatelaine (with chestnuts), new peas with mint sauce, sweet potatoes with oranges triomphe, champagne. Salade victoire, port salut cheese sandwiches. Coupe nougat quarente-six (an ice symbolic of the 46 States that went for Roosevelt), gateau parfair (a sweet pastry) and coffee. Morgan says only $5 goes for food and $95 for democracy. To make it easy on the eaters, how- ever, the leaders are allowing pay- ments on the installment plan, which means a man may come around next September and say: “How about the $7 for that cup of coffee you drank last March—and $4 for the olives?” © ESTABLISHED 1865 o | Complete stock of fifty sizes aolways on hand ready for 7, prompt, free delivery from z cither of the two conven- iontly located Barker ware- g houses. _Lowest prices! / GEO.

C, THURSDAY, Fightin’ Words Fly in Letters For and Against Court Change Senate and House Leaders Hear From All Parts of Country—Radio Speech Called Asinine. BY the Associated Press. Letters full of “fightin’ words” poured in today on Senate and House leaders in the fight over reorganiza- tion of the judiciary. Representative Maverick, Democrat, of Texas, who favors the presidential proposal to add a new judge to the bench for each judge past 70 who does not retire, said he never had seen an issue arouse so much public vehemence. Senator Pope, Democrat, of Idaho, said replies to his broadcast favoring the plan ran the emotional gamut, from intense hatred to whole-hearted applause. He produced as his prize exhibit a letter from Harry G. An- thony, Westmont, N. J. “I have just listened to your so- called speech, calling on the people of this Nation to support FDR's pro- gram to pack the Supreme Court,” Anthony wrote. “Your talk was the most assinine that it ever has been my displeasure to listen to. From this talk it was easy to see that you, too, are a rubber stamp, and that Mr. R. has rapped your knuckles and put you in line. Are you & man or are you just a robot to carry out Roosevelt’s will? “Why in the hell don’t you amend the Constitution to give Congress power to pass social legislation? No, you can't do that because you shirk your responsibility. If you expect the people to believe the bunk you birds hand out you are crazy. “Please pardon the pencil, but your speech was just a carbon copy of an entrance examination to a bug house.” Exerpts of other letters to the Idahoan included: Ira H. Masters, Boise—"If the ques- tion of supporting the President’s program on the Supreme Court were submitted to referendum by the people of Idaho 75 per cent would support |°f the. President.” J. J. Story, Gooding, Idaho—*"Pope, in the mame of God don't let our balance wheel, the Supreme Court, be marred .or changed in any way that we may not become a byword to the other nations.” GeorBe S. McClellan, Nampa, Idaho —"“Please support the Constitution of the United States, the American peo- ple, and the Roosevelt plan as regards the Supreme Court * * *.”" F. D. Hooper, Merchantville, N. J.— *“You are a liar when you say Harding, Coolidge and Hoover packed the Supreme Court and I expect & re-| traction.” Maverick quoted from his letters: Harvey Schmidt, Houston—“I hope you have not been - misled by the! formal protests of bar associations,” | John R. Wade (Los Angeles—“I was | tempted to address this to Senator | Wandering Bum Steer. Attempts to | suppress or change the Supreme Court ; now is treason. Any one aiding in this is a renegade.” Anonymous—*“Hurrah for the nine wise men. Down with the Stalin type MARCH 4, 1937. TYDINGS DEMANDS RULE OF JUSTICE Calls Upon North Carolina Democrats to Oppose Government by Man. BY the Associated Press. RALEIGH, N. C., March 4—Sen- ator Millard F. Tydings of Maryland urged North Carolina Democrats last night to “insist on & government of Justice, a government of law and. not man, a government of three branches.” Speaking at a State-wide Demo- cratic “victory dinner” here, the Mary- land Senator did not refer directly to President Roosevelt’s Supreme Court reorganization proposal, but asserted each of the three branches of govern- ment should be “powerful within its righttul sphere” and described balance of powers as “a tripod upon which rests the past and future welfare of men.” How Strong Is Belief. ‘Do we propose to yleld to the temptation to take short cuts, with the attendant surrender of democratic philosophy and processes?” Tydings asked. “Do we believe so lightly in democratic principles that we will consider giving them up—even if tem- porarily? Can we be lured, even tem- | porarily, to follow idols and embrace images that are undemocratic in or- der quickly to reach some future objective?” Reminding the Democrats of “the greatest party victory in the history of our Nation,” Senator Tydings asked, “finding ourselves so over- whelmingly in power everywhere, what of constitution. Pight again we will.” are we going to do about it as we approach the solution of the prob- lems of our country? “Shall We Go Back?” “Shall we, as Democrats, go back, step by step, to the absolution from which our forefathers sought to free us? Are we oblivious of the lessons of the past? Are we unmindful of the subversive trends of government which are taking place in many lands, and what goes on in other lands, whether it be communism in Russia or fascism in Germany and Italy?” He said the duty of government was to guarantee that men should have an equal chance to promote and enlarge their opportunities, without surrendering their “traditional or in- alienable” rights.
