like calling Ralph Bunche oil
Mrs. Bethune or Walter White

because they have fought vieo-
rously for Negro rights. In fact,
the author is careful when there
is a question of doubt to not la
bel a person. On the other hand,
the book is not a white wash. :
The writer has consulted hun
dreds of magazine articles, thous-
ands Of newspapers and official
documents. He has made no az

the party work. The book is a

.McKeIdin Returns
Takoma Tract; Vetoes
Sunday Drinking
BY q stoff Correspondent Of The stor

ANNAPOLIS, May 8.-The town
Iof Takoma Park will get back a
I28-acre tract it lost IL years ago
when Mayor Ross Beville called a
Legislative snake" slipped the title
to Prince Georges County.
Despite pros and cons from two
delegations who invaded his office
yesterday, Gov. McKeldin ap-
proved a bill returning the prop
erty to the municipality.
In signing it the Governor dis
regarded a last-minute action of
the Prince Georges commissioners,
who voted Friday to urge a veto
He disapproved a measure that
would have permitted specially
licensed restaurants to sell liquors
until 2 am. on Sundays, along
with a companion bill to legalize
sale of alcoholic beverages on New
Years Day. One other county
measure also was vetoed.
Cubs Coin Devices.
In another action he signed a
measure banning from the county
all mechanical and electrical coin
operated amusement devices ex-
lcept pinball and claw machines.
Three other bills affecting the
county were approved.
Takoma Park officials, battling
to get back the lost land, were
opposed by the Carole High
lands Citizens Association, which
charged the move amounted to a
tax grab" and that annexation
should not be approved without a
referendum.
The Carole Highlanders are not
in the affected area, but their
leaders limited that Takoma Park
had tax designs on their property
and they feared they might be-
drawn in, too. The town tried
that once, they declared.
Town officials pointed out that
a referendum was impossible be-
cause the property, 'unimproved
except for a shopping center, is
owned by two Montgomery County
men who are ineligible to vote
Mayor Beville said the towns $1.1C
tax rate would garner less than
ST 900 annually from the tract.
Other Prince Georges bills acted
on yesterday were:
