Two Maryland
Primary Races
Still in Doubt
100 Absentee Votes
May Decide First
District House Seat
BULLETIN.

Representative Ward took a
75-vote lead over State Sena-
tor Dudley G.. Roe in the 1st
district congressional primary
today on the basis of unofficial
returns with only one precinct
unreported.
The outcome of two Maryland
primary contests Tuesday still were
in doubt-one may hinge on the
opening of servicemen's absentee
ballots eight days hence-as Board
OF Election Supervisors prepared to
make an official count of the votes
later today.
The doubtful races are the Demo-
cratic vote in the 1st congressional
district and the 5th Judicial Circuit
contest.
Representative Ward was trailing
State Senator Dudley G. Roe by 49
votes in the 1st district with only Is
polling places to be reported from
Cecil County. Mr.. Ward is leading
in that county, however, The un-
official returns gave Mr.. Roe 1859
votes against 1850 for Mr.. Ward.
Vote in Judges Race.
Associate Judge Ridgely p Melvin
appeared likely to replace Chief
Judge William H. Forsythe in the
5th Circuit, on the basis of unof-
fetal returns. There are still some
precinct figures missing in Anne
Arundel County, but "a out of 90
polling places gave Judge Melvin
5,898 ballots and Judge Forsythe
5,528.
Service mems ballots may decide
the congressional primary since only
40 votes separate the rivals now and
there are more than 100 absentee
soldier ballots.
The law requires the Secretary of
State to hand the absentee ballots,
unopened, to the County Boards of
Election Supervisors within seven
days after the primary. On the
tenth day following, election day,
the supervisors must meet at noon
to tabulate the absentee ballots.
Second Close Battle.
This is the second time Mr.. Roe
and Representative Ward have
staged a nip-and-tuck battle for
the Democratic nomination on the
Eastern Shore. Two years ago Mr..
Roe lost the nomination by 451
votes. He held the lead until a
heavy vote in Wieomico County
swung the primary in MIR. Wards
favor. sr sa
Meanwhile, final unofficial re-
turns only widened the landslide
majorities piled up by Gov. O'Conor
and Theodore R. McKeldin, nomi-
nees for Governor in the Democratic
and Republican primaries, respec-
lively.

Bussler thinks that possibly a Nazi
sympathizer might let loose some
obnoxious gas in downtown Wash

evacuees, he says, is always north or
northwest.
Meanwhile, there are always aux

five men still living who hold inter-
national aviation certificates num-
bered under 1000, is man to take

FACTS FOR FARMERS

Fertilizer may cure sick land, but
1t will also kill healthy cattle
Many types of fertilizer are pois-
onous, but rather palatable. Cattle
may nibble at heaps left in the pas
ture for future spreading, and be-
come seriously ill.
Proper management of dairy
calves with special attention to
feeding during the first few days
after birth, will get them off to a
strong start and reduce calfhood
mortality, says X. w. Baker, of
the Delaware Agricultural Exten-
sion Service. Raising healthy cal
yes is important for herd improve
ment because of the need for re-
placements when cows in the milk
ing line drop out of production.
Salt (sodium chloride) is a nee
essary part of the livestock's ra-
ton. However, If none has been
included in the feed for many
months the animals may become
"salt hungry" Then If given free
access to salt, they may take more
than is good for them; so much
more that they may actually be
salt poisoned" and die. If giving
salt to livestock for the first time,
get them used to it gradually.
