The Rev. and Mrs. Richard Jack
son feel no qualms about the next
five years of their life, which will
be devoted to missionary work in the
mountainous interior Of China.
Nor, as they told meeting of the
Civilians yesterday, do the young
missionaries have any impulse to
"Americanize" the people "as su-
periors dealing with interiors" j"

China, and by so doing. build a

The 30-year-old minister and his
attractive 32-year- -old wife, the
daughter of Louis Potter, prominent
musician here, will leave next month
for Shaowu, China. The town is
200 miles inland in the southern
Province of Fukien.
DR.. Jackson told the Civilians that
Shaowu has been deprived of hos
pital and missionary facilities since
1880, when Chinese Communists took
over the area. Since then, he said,
a hospital building has stood aban-
doned and no doctor or religious
minister has been available to the
1000, 900 Chinese Of the area.

Swap Personal Barbs

BY the Associated Press

William Preston Lane, jr., Demo-
crat, and Mayor Theodore Nickel
din, of Baltimore, Republican, yes
terday exchanged personal barbs
for the first time in their rival
campaigns to be elected Governor
of Maryland.
Mr.. McKeldin, speaking on q
broadcast from Baltimore and re-
Iiterating statements made early In
the week as he campaigned in Mont
gomery County, asked If Mr.. Lane
were asleep as attorney general
when the Central Trust Co. OF
Frederick failed in the early 1930s
WAS he like the three figures OF
a triple statuary image which de-
picts one figure which sees no evil
another which hears no evil and a
third which speaks no evil?
This failure was followed by and
was cause of the Maryland bank
holiday, which In turn helped bring
on the national bank holiday"

of touring through Carroll County
mentioned Mr.. McKeldin's name
for the first time in the campaign
He quoted from a speech Mr.. Nc
Keldin made at Hagerstown in 1884
In that speech Mr.. McKeldin de-
clared Mr.. Lane had served faith
fully and fearlessly as attorney gen.
eral-"would not finch nor retreat
one inch from the faithful per.
formance of his duties even If Il
means political annihilation."
Mr.. Lane pointed out Mr.. Nickel

din made this statement several
years after the trust company fall
ure. He said Mr.. McKeldin was not
q candidate for Office then and 1t
was probably his honest opinion. !"
After the personal reference to
Mr.. McKeldin, Mr.. Lane turned to
his repeatedly -expounded program
for improvement Of the State Gov
ernment.
He said his ambition is not to be
just governor, but good governor.
He declared he Is in favor OF
limiting the governor of Maryland
to two terms. He said he intends to
ask the General Assembly to sub
NIT a two-term limitation.
He also advocated adoption of the
Sherbow Commission recommenda-
ton that the General Assembly
meet every year in order to facili-
tate handling of State finances.
Mr.. Lane asserted that if elected
he will not bother about his own
political future, that he will not try
to organize and administer in such
a way as to bring about his own
denomination, but that this does
not mean he necessarily is closing
the door on a second term If elected
this time.
IF elected" he said, II intend to
do my best and work my hardest
to make a good governor, and let
the future take care of itself"
