McKeIdin Returns
Money Gifts After
Criticism by Tydings
By the Associated Press

BALTIMORE, Sept. 4.--Mary-
lands Gov. McKeldin has re-
turned the cash gifts given him by
some "old friends" at a dinner
party recently.
He said last night that he has
mailed a check to B. Herbert
Brown, the Baltimore Republican
who arranged the dinner and has
asked Mr.. Brown to distribute the
money!,
The Governors acceptance of
the purse has been the target of
several highly critical statements
issued by former Senator Tydings.
who says the amount involved is
$1,000.
Won't Name Donors.
Mr.. McKeldin would not say
how much he received, nor would
he name the donors as Mr..
Tydings demanded.
Mr.. Tydings, a Democrat who
lost his Senate seat in 1850,
pointed out that the Governor has
been one Of the most vocal critics
of members of President Truman'S
staff who accepted deep freezers
and mink coats as presents.
He observed that $1,000 would
buy mink coat or two or several
deep freezefs.
Gov. McKeldin said the gifts
were from "old friends" and that
mo strings were attached" He
said some had indicated that at
least part of the money should
be used for campaign purposes
and others thought Gov. Nc
/, Keldin should buy needed items
foy the Government House.
Cites Spirit Of the Law.
Mr.. McKeldin said he hadn't
decided how the money was to
be used, but took note of the
law which states that sources of
campaign contributions must be
made public.
1T might contravene the spirit,
If not the letter, of the law if
the (campaign donations were
made in my name" the Governor
wrote in a letter to Mr.. Brown.
There was certainly nothing
to justify criticism, although
it is perhaps too much to expect
that some one would not take ad-
vantage of the opportunity to
make demagogic capital out of it, !"
he said. z---.-
