DR.. H. c. Byrd, Democratic
candidate for Governor of Mary
land. hurled another implication
of irregularities at Republican
Gov. McKeldin today, only a few
hours after the Governor had
answered the challenger's last
blast.
In his latest attack, DR.. Byrd
demanded that the Governor
tell how much law and bonding
business had been done with the
State through his private law
office.
Only last night Gov. McKeldin
told a Prince Frederick rally that
a charge of connivance In con-
nection with the $143 million
Baltimore harbor tunnel was
absolutely untrue" Today DR..
Byrd said the public is entitled
to know more about the Gov

Representative Broyhill, Re-

after the November 2 election he
plans to contest the listing of
candidates on the Fairfax County

would invalidate the outcome
there.
AS an incumbent, his name

but Fairfax election officials
placed the name of the challen-
ger, John Webb, Democrat, first.
Mr.. Broyhill said he would not

issue, but after the election he
planned a court contest unless
such a challenge would invali-
date the results in Fairfax-re-

There still are differences be-
tween him and Collins, such as
the milk issue, Oldham said. He
put it another way: 1--WE haven't
crawled into bed and there have
been no deals between u.s."
But, said Oldham, he and Col
Inns are seeking the same thing
out of government and their basic
concepts of how the state should
be run are the same.
Oldham said 81 could never in
good conscience vote for the now
acting governor :. The crowd that
is supporting him is the crowd
that's been the. most selfish for
years."
At another point Oldham said
''I'm almost sick at my stomach
at the deals the acting governor is
making"
Collins first words after Oldham
introduced him were: II thank
Bradley Oldham from the bottom
of my heart"
Then he introduced from the au-

was John McCarty, brother Of
Dan.

that charges Of machine politics

The Tallahassee senator said the
first example Of machine politics
was Johns firing of 16 McCarty

He added that Johns has said
he is for the little man, but "some
of his little supporters are driving

Collins referred to what he called
