Carter 10 Run Again
For Maryland Senate
To Back 0ber Law
BY the Asseeiote3 Press

BALTIMORE, May 22.-State
Senator Wilmer c. Carter. who
sponsored Maryland's stringent
law against subversives. an
nounced today he will be a candi-
date for reelection this fall.
His decision to run again, he
declared. is motivated by a desire
to keep fighting for the Ober law.
It comes up for a vote in a State
wide referendum in November.
Senator Carter said he had
planned to retire from the Mary
land General Assembly, where he
represents Baltimore's third legis-
lative district. He is a Democrat.
I'm April of 1948," Senator Car
ter said. II made the declaration:
I shall fight communism and its
associated groups as long as it may
be necessary
IT shall not withdraw from this
declaration"
Senator Carter said running
again for the Senate will give
me the opportunity to carry to
the people the true facts about
the Ober law.
"1t has been misrepresented by
the Communists and their fellow
travellers. Others have misrepre-
sented the law deliberately or by
reason of misinformation."
Early in 1948, Senator Carter
heard a former Oman talk at
a luncheon club sabout activities
of Communists and Communist
front groups in the United States.
At the first opportunity he in
troduced a resolution in the State
Senate asking for an investigation
of subversive activities and what
the State could do about it.
Frank Ober, Baltimore attorney
headed the inquiry committee
which drew up the law. Senator
Carter introduced it in the legis-
lature and it was enacted at the
1949 session with but one dissent
ing vote.
The act sets up heavy fines and
prison sentences for active SUBJ
versives. It also provides a fine
and Imprisonment merely for be-
longing to an organization found
subverSive.
