Rebuff for McComas in Maryland political clash
Senator McComas invited Congressman Jackson to Ocean City for a conference but differences between Republican leaders remain. Jackson charged that McComas started fights in Prince George’s, Charles, and Howard counties and urged him to join their camp. McComas offered no reply, asserting loyalty to Lowndes, Mudd, and Wachter and vowing to fight the opposing faction. Denton Texas reports a peach and tomato belt with farmers enjoying a good peach crop.
