BALTIMORE, April 26.-Repre-
sentative Beall today renounced
campaign literature urging his
nomination to the Senate.
Not that he's dropped out OF
the Republican primary race. He
just doesn't want to get tied in
with any one of five Republican
candidates for the 9Th District
House seat he is vacating. Mr..
Beall has four opponents for the
senatorial nomination.
George M. Moore of Silver
Spring mailed out post card SAM
pie ballots" with x marks beside
his own name for the House and
that of Mr.. Beall. The card was
headed: Nominate Two Candi-
dates with Congressional Expert

attorney, has been counsel to con-
|gressional committees for several
years.
But Mr.. Beall thinks that the
literature has the earmarks of a
SLATE" and he's courting the votes
of those who favor Mr.. Moore S
opponents as well. He said he is
consulting his lawyers to deter
mine whether to obtain an injunc-

of the cards.

Washington and Lee,
Students Prepare for
Mock Political Farley
SpecioI Disputch to The Stor

LEXINGTON, Va, April 26.
Politics was in the air to the ex-
clusion of anything else in this
small college town today, as stu
dents of Washington and Lee Uni
versity prepared for their presi-
Dental year tradition-a mock
convention of the political party
out of power.
All the hoop-la and color of a
regular convention surrounds the
student event. Activity gets un-
derway at 2::30 p m. Monday, when
the student delegations represent
ing 48 States and five territories
stage a mile-long parade through
the streets of the town.
Senator Carlson. Republican, of
Kansas, is an 11th hour replace
ment for Senator Duff, Republi-
can, of Pennsylvania, as keynote
speaker. Senator Duff's physician
advised him today to take a rest
and not attempt the Lexington
trip. Both Senators are strong
supporters of Gen. Eisenhower.
Voting Begins Tuesday.
Senator Carlson's address,
scheduled for 4::30 pm. Monday,
will be carried by many of the
Virginia radio stations which
have sent crews to the campus
for on-the-spot coverage:
Nominations will begin at 1880
pm. Monday and continue through
Tuesday morning session. Ballot
ing will begin about noon Tues
day, and continue until a candi-
date has been selected.
Although the university sched-
|ule calls for wind up of conven-
ton business Tuesday night and a
return to classes Wednesday
morning, it is not inconceivable
that the convention will still be
deadlocked by that time. If so
administrative permission must
be sought to cancel Wednesdays
classes. This has happened at
least once before, when students
awoke University President Fran
els P. Gaines at 3 am. to obtain
such permission.
Sessions to be TeleviSed.
For the first time, the conven-
tion will be televised. A three
man crew from the Columbia
Broadcasting System is filming
for use on Edward R.
Murrow's Sunday news telecast.
Nearly so representatives of
Virginia and Washington, D. c.,
newspapers, radio stations and
wire services will arrive here to-
morrow and Monday to cover the
convention.
Student politicians have been
right five times in the conven-
tion's 44-year history. They have
gone wrong at the last three
conventions held, however.

New Evidence Cited
In Patuxent HOUSING
Charges by Mahoney
BY J. [. MichoeI
Stor StoH Correspondent

LEONARDTOWN, Md, April
I26.-George P. Mahoney said here
tonight that he has fresh cause
Ito press for an investigation of
housing shortages in the area of
the Patuxent Naval Airbase.
After a personal tour Of the
Lexington Park section, the Dem
ocratic Senatorial candidate said
he has obtained information to
support his charges that "a little
group of men eager for big
profits" have long blocked hous-
ing developments in the critical
defense area.
He identified the group as
friends or associates" of Repre-
sentative Sasscer, his chief oppon-
ent in the May S primary.
The group accomplished the
delays. MIR. Mahoney said, by at
tempting to "gouge" servicemen
and civilians through excessive
charges for water and sewage
services. Mr.. Mahoney said the
group controls the Patuxent Water
Co.. which supplies such services
to parts of Lexington Park.
Sasscer and Others Deny 1t.
Mr.. Sasscer and two of the men
to whom Mr.. Mahoney referred
have denied the charges.
One of them has also denied
another accusation by Mr.. Ma
honey that the same group of men
acquired land near the air station
apparently knowing in advance
of the Governments plans"
Reliable sources" Mr.. Mahoney
said, told me today that this is
true and that all the remarks
have made on these matters are
underStatementS."
Mr.. Mahoney and State Sem
ator Louis N. Phipps, Democrat,
of Anne Arundel County spoke in
the courthouse here after a gum
boot expedition through st. Marys,
one OF the counties. in his column
in his contest two years ago with
Gov. Lane. The speech wound UP
two days Of campaigning in south
ern Maryland.
Mr.. Mahoney was accompanied
today by F. Patrick Ragan, a local
businessman. and j. Otis Watson
of Mt. Rainier. In his rounds in
Charles County yesterday, Mr..
was introduced to voters
by Thomas P. McDonagh of La
Plata and James T. Burroughs of
Waldorf.
Reds and Waste Assailed.
Communism and Governmental
waste also came in for drubbing
in Mr.. Mahoney's speech tonight.
"The Senate watchdog commit
tee has reported" Mr.. Mahoney
said, that $5 billion have been
wasted in purchases of airplane
parts, jeeps and trucks.
although Representative Sass
Ger is member of the Armed
Services Committee and the Naval
Appropriations subcommittee" Mr..
Mahoney declared, "he has never
led a single fight to reduce or
eliminate waste in Government.
Senator Phipps hit at the in
cumbent administration.
People have lost confidence in
the leadership Of the Democratic
party" he said. I am not opposed
to the Democratic party but I am
opposed to the men who run it,"

Wbat Happens
If You Leave No WILL?
b. j HOWARD TOELLE, Professor Of LA
Montana Stare UviOersity

Under The. lille. 'Have You
Made a Will?" in the Feb.
issue Professor Toelle discussed
different kinds of wills and how
10 prepare them. In this article
he summarizes the laws of in
testate succession in Montana.
This is part 2 of the second of
series of five articles TO appear
on estate planning.
WHAT HAPPENS to the property
of a deceased when he leaves no will?
In other words, how does property
descend under the laws of intestate
succession in Montana?
The succession to property in Mon
tana in the absence of a will is
quite definitely set forth in our
statutes. BY the Civil Code, the
widow is endowed of the third part
of all lands whereof her husband
was seized of an Unbeatable estate
at any time during the marriage
unless she relinquished her dover
right in legal form. The husband
cannot defeat this interest by MAX
ing a will, since the wife, by sub
sequent section, may elect whether
she wishes to take or renounce any
provision for her in the will or take
her dover in the husbands land as
provided in the preceding section.
Also, whereas the wife's dover
comes out ahead of the husbands
debts, the wife may, in case the
husband left no children or descend
ants of children, elect to take one
half of all the realty remaining after
| the payment of the husbands debts
In addition to her dover right, the
wife is also an heir of her husband
by Montana law, and under oul
general succession statute is allowed
to share in other property of hel
husband
Husband Is Heir
The husband no longer has tht
common law estate of curtesy il
the wife's real property in case sh,
dies first, this estate having beel
abolished by the Montana Code
However, husband is an heir o
his wife's property under our gen
eral succession rule.
A child is not in the same favore
position as is the wife. Either fathe
or mother could make will cuttin
off entirely the expectant interest {
child. However, by our code,
testator omits to provide for his chi
dren in his will, the children wi
take the same share as on intestac
unless it appears that the omissic
was intentional.
Succession to and distribution
both real and personal property is
Montana regulated by the provision
of our code under the followil
categories:
l. If decedent leaves a spouse al
one child Cor lawful issue of t
child equal shares go to each, or
to the spouse and " to the issue.
2. If. decedent leaves a spouse al
more than one child living, or, o
child living and the lawful issue
one or more deceased children
goes to the spouse, and the REMAND
in equal shares to the children, a
to the lawful issue of any deceas
child by right Of representation
no child is living at the death of
testate, the remainder goes to all
