). Gov. McKeldin of Maryland
said last night it looks as though
negotiations will get under way
toward welding three pivotal State
delegations into a harmony bloc
with highly effective voice in
selecting the Republican presiden-
tial nominee.
! Earlier the Republican Governor
had confirmed reports that he
had been approached about set
ting up Pennsylvania Maryland
michigan combine designed to de-
eide who gets the nomination.
He said at Baltimore the ap-
proach was made by an emissary
ostensibly from Gov. John S. Fine
of Pennsylvania. Gov. McKeldin
added:
II, of course, have no way of
knowing whether the person who
approached me had authority from
Gov. Fine. Perhaps the same per-
son still has to make contact with
Gov. Fine.
"The initiative in this matter
certainly is not mine and if Gov
Fine is not interested that ends it. -
In Harrisburg, Gov. Fine said
he hasn't proposed any get-togeth-
er Of delegates from the three
States.
McKeldin Appears on TV.
Gov. McKeldin appeared on q
CHS television program last night
Asked if he could say that "a deal
was certainly cooking" to weld the
three delegations into a harmony
bloc, he replied:
That's what I understand. I've
been in negotiation with some
people and they've been in nego-
tiation with me. It looks as
though we're going to begin to
talk"
Gov. McKeldin said he thought
the uncommitted delegates from
the three States would be mighty
effective" in selecting the party's
nominee.
His interrogation, Douglas Ed
wards, CHS commentator, had
previously spoken of SO uncommit-
ted delegates-24 from Maryland,
80 from Michigan and 80 from
Pennsylvania.
Questioned about Gov. Fines
statement that Gov. Fine had not
proposed the three-State combine,
the Maryland Governor said:
"It's not what you say in this
business, it's what you didn't say.
You notice he didn't say he wasn't
interested"
Mentions Both Candidates.
Commenting on reports that he
favored Gen. Eisenhower for the

Keldin said:
