Drowning Touches Off Danger Spot Protests

Drowning of a child in an
Iunguarded Chillum, Md, drainage
pool last week has touched of
new protests over danger spots
elsewhere.
In a strongly worded letter to
the Prince Georges County COM
missioners, 20 residents have en-
Iphasized perils of open water at
Fairfield. Md.
One is where a culvert runs
under GreenWay drive; the other
is at Southern avenue and Thirty
sixth place. the letter says.
The Greenway drive culvert
was washed out due to the Dis
trict diverting and increasing the
flow of water down the narrow
creek alongside Thirty sixth place

from Southern avenue to Oxon
Rum" it explains.
Installation by the District OF
larger culverts to carry off the
water from the District to Oxon
Run has increased the second
menace. the residents contend.
The letter, highly critical Of the
District, suggests that the COM
missioners act before we expert
ence tragedy and heartache here
Short Of appealing to the
President and the Governor OF
Maryland, we have done every
thing in our power to have these
conditions corrected"
Victim in the Chillum drowning
was 6-year-old Linda Maloney
who fell into the unguarded con-
Istruction excavated and downeo

Eisenhower Given
Best Chance by 1hye;
Young Sold on Taft
BY the Assoeioied Press

Senator Thye, Republican, of
Minnesota. who Is backing Harold
e. Stassen for the Republican
presidential nomination, said to-
day Gen. Eisenhower chances to
win it are better than those of any
other candidate.
On the other hand, Senator
Young. Republican. of North Da-
kota, said he thinks Senator Taft
Of Ohio "is going to give Eisen-
hover a very close run and GER
tainly can't be counted out"
Senator Thye told a reporter:
Il believe Dan Gainey made a
completely accurate appraisal of
the situation in saying Eisenhower
has the best chance to be nomi-
mated"
Mr.. Gainey made the statement
yesterday in announcing the clos
ing OF Mr.. StaSsen'S Washington
headquarters for economy reasons.
Pitfalls for General.
Senator Taft said in a radio in
terview last night that Gen. Eisen-
hover inevitably will lose some OF
his present supporters when he
speaks out on such issues as the
Taft-Hartley Act and civil rights
He said Gov. Thomas E. Dewey
turned out to be a weak candi-
date in 1948 and he predicted Gen.
Eisenhower is "likely to become a
weak candidate in the end"
On another question, Senator
Taft criticized an Associated Press
tabulation of delegate strength
based on pledges, instructions, ex-
pressed leanings of G. o. P. dele
gates selected so far, and candi-
date concessions.
Count Challenged.
He said the A. P. had not polled
delegates chosen in New York,
but had taken Gov. Dewey's word
for the way the delegates would
vote.
In Pennsylvania. he said. his
forces believe Gen. Eisenhower
has no more than 13 delegates,
compared with 20 credited to him
by the A. p. in it's latest tabula-
ton. He said the A. P. credits
him with 18 in Pennsylvania, "but
We have at least 25," and that
there are Is or 80 others who will
follow the lead of Gov. John S.
Fine who, Mr.. Taft said, 'is en-
tirely neutral at this moment"
The Associated Press said its
Pennsylvania totals were the re-
suit Of 0) clear-cut contests in
the Tuesday primary and CD an

they were asked to state their

In a radio interview over CHS,
Senator Russell also dealt with the
controversial civil rights issue on
which he as a Southerner is lined
Iup against President Truman and
Iolher hackers of the administra-
ton program.
Asked specifically about the pro-
pcSal to create Fair Employment

he is against the idea but not for
