the Governor said in an address
prepared for the 84th annual con-
vention of the Maryland State
Teachers Association.
I'm a Nation which justly prides
itself on it's traditional toleration
of dissent. and whose greatness,
indeed, derives from its solicitous
protection of the dissenter, con-
formity is being made the test of
loyalty.
"Hysteria of the Time"
"And in the hysteria of the

for a three-day convention.
Prominent On the teachers
agenda was a proposed resolu-

$500 increase last spring.
The Governor made no refer

Nor did he name any perpetra-

A Senator taking issue, with a
pending military measure may
be countered by a colleague who
declares. you are not thinking
of the boys in Korea" Mr.. Nc
Keldin observed.
This is the piece of abuse that
was hurled at a man who at

Marine service and who bears on
his body the wounds Of war;" he

from the Senate chamber when he
had been chided by a colleague for
questioning military appropria-

Name-calling and mud-slinging
are bad enough. Gov. McKeldin
said. But he spoke also of "re-
voting instances of men being
publicly called Communists or
Fascists without proof and other
men not daring to speak in their
defense out OF fear that If they
do they, too, will suffer oppro-
brium."
"Duress by Name Calling"
Trainers of the Constitution

ment violation of individual free

"Duress by name-calling is, If
anything. more irresponsible than
formal official action" he added.
Whispered denunciations in
star chambers" where the accused
has no chance to reply have the
same effect as public abuse, he
went on.
The Governor said public schools
are in a position to thwart un-
democratic precepts from abroad
and these mo less corrosive influ-
ences in our domestic life"
This alarming totalitarian
tendency to inhibit free expression
can be halted if the people are
aroused to its inherent danger" !"

The group was selected from
some $4,000 high school seniors

participated in the Naval College

Some $500 of those tested were
further processed at Navy Re-

toned among the states on a per-
centage basis of male high school

The State Selective Committees,
each composed of two prominent
civilians from the state-on an

Aluminium Anotmenfs
Stand Despite Deal
For Canadian Supply

The swap which will bring to
the United States from Canada
aluminium that formerly went to
Britain will not result in increased
aluminium allotments to industry
in the first quarter of 1852, tie
National Production Authority said
yesterday.
NPA explained that the deal
whereby the United States will
supply Britain more steel while
Britain valves her claims on Cana
dian aluminium was anticipated in
the making of the first quarter
aluminium allotments.
Had this not been so, according
to NPA. the ALLEGATION of alumni
mum for less essential consumer
durable goods would have had to
be cut back by more than the 80
per cent it was reduced. The cut
back is figured against pre-Korean
consumption.
CutUdCk OI % ECT SCHt.
For essential consumer goods
the cutback is IS per cent. In each
category the steel allowance is so
per cent of the pre-Korean use.
The use of aluminium in civilian
goods has been steadily reduced
during the last year. In Novem-
ber 1850, NPA ordered that no
more aluminium should be used
in December 1850, than was used
in the base period of the first six
months of 1850.
Later NPA ordered a 20 per
cent cutback for January 1851:
a cutback of Is per cent for Feb
ruary. and 35 per cent in March
The reduction in aluminium for
consumer durable goods reached
81 per cent in the current quarter
of 1851. Also, since April /, the
use of aluminium has been pro-
hibited for some decorative and
non essential purposes.
The program for doubling the
aluminium output is not expected
Ito be completed until mid-1953.
Costing about $500 million. it is
expected to result in an annual
output of Is million tons of
aluminium year.
Britain Gets Steel.
The deal with Britain is ex-
Ipected to bring in about % mil
lion pounds of aluminium in
five-month period. Britain cancel
ing orders for that amount of Ca
madam aluminium.
Britain had asked for 100000
tons of steel year Instead. she
will be allowed to purchase $4,000
tons of finished steel in the first
quarter. or 5000 tons more than
originally allotted.
The British also will be able to
buy $4,000 tons of ingot steel.
There is some surplus of this in
the United States, chiefly at
plants which do not have the mill
capacity to fabricate all their in
got production.
NPA has been trying to promote
ingot steel use by the automobile
and shipbuilding industries. Some
potential users have SHE'D away
from it. however. because of the
increased cost in buying the in
gots at one plant and sending
them to another where mill ca
pacity is available for fabricating
the steel.
