land were holding their annual
convention banquet.
Gov. Lane said his primary op-
ponent had shown splendid
sportsmaship" in dropping his eff
forts to contest the primary re-
suit. Turning directly to his erst-
while rival, he added:
II thank you for what you have
done for the Democratic Party"
Senator Tydings also compli-

here" and said:
There is a big place for MI.
Mahoney in the Democratic Party
and make no mistake about it. He
made a remarkable race"
Meanwhile, James H. Pollack,
Democratic leader in the 4th Bal
timore City district. declared last

He Was Misquoted

What Republican uncil
Candidate John c. Reid said at q

become an issue in the Mont

According to the press release,
Mr.. Reid declared Democratic

a killing. The release quoted him
as saying deals are made under

Joseph B. Simpson, jr., Dem

day Mr.. Reid never made the
remarks attributed to him in the

And Mr.. Reid said the release
had been more violent and spe-
cific" than he had intended and
was much too strong"
II was careful not to make
charges there was a fix said Mr..
Reid, for I don't want to get
into mudslinging campaign.
II didn't draw any conclusions.
but hoped the conclusion would
be obvious"
But the Republicans profess
sional public relations man who
wrote the release, Leon Schloss,
said notes he made on Mr.. Reid's
conversation, clearly indicated
a specific charge of real estate
deals.
Mr.. Reid said ne pointed out at
the civic groups meeting that the
Democrats tended to have the
backing of real estate men, where
as the Republicans and charter
supporters are sympathetic toward
home owners"
He said he also pointed out that
the Republicans have no support
ers among the large real estate
interests in the county"
Remarking he was appalled,"
when he heard how his remarks
had been quoted in the press, Mr..
Reid said his Democratic rivals
congratulated him on "a very fair
speech" at the end OF the meet
ing.
THE idea of tagging the Demo-
Gratis with real estate support is
my idea and I'll stand by it, but
mentioned the subject with re-
straint," he said. II did not indi-
cate graft"
County Democrats, meanwhile,
challenged Mr.. Reid to put up or
shut up" and list names and prop
critics in connection with his re-
ported accusation. Democratic

they would withdraw from the
