Radcliffe Suggested as Compromise Dem Governor Candidate
Contenders for Maryland Governor show reluctance to risk the general election. George L. Radcliffe of Baltimore is proposed as a compromise Democratic nominee. He is not factional, counts Governor Ritchie and Mayor Jackson as friends, chaired the State campaign for the last presidential election, and has been drafted by a personal friend, President Roosevelt, for special work. The Radcliffe ties to Roosevelt are cited as ensuring administration support if nominated.
