Alabama and Ohio
Contests Feature Five
State Primaries TODAY
BY the Asseeieisd Press

Five States hold primaries
today, with national attention
focused primarily on Alabama.
where Democratic Senator John
M. Sparkman's political future
is at stake, and on Ohio, where
Representative George H. Ben
der seeks the Republican Senate
nomination.
Mr.. Bender, whose home is in
Cleveland. is opposed by William
Saxbe of MechanicSburg, speaker
of the Ohio House Of Represent
atives, for the Republican nom
ination for the remaining two
years of the term of the late
Senator Robert A. Taft.
Senator Thomas A. Burke,
former Cleveland Mayor now
holding Mr.. Taft's former seat
by appointment, has no opposi-
ton for the Democratic nomina-
ton. He will face the Bender
Saxbe winner in the November
general election.
Senator Sparkman is facing
the voters for the first time since
he was running mate of Adlai E.
Stevenson on the National Dem
ocratic ticket in 1852. Repre-
sentative Laurie Battlen, who
gave up his House seat to chal-
lenge Senator Sparkman, has
accused the Senator of seeking
to carry water on both Shoul-
ders" on the civil rights issue.
Others in the race include re-
tired Admiral John G. Grom-
melin, a central figure in an Air
Force-Navy row in Washington
several years ago.
Former Gov. James E. Chg
Jim) Folsom is trying to win the
Democratic gubernatorial nomi-
nation in a comeback against
seven opponents. Also at stake
in Alabama are three contested
congressional nominations and
q number of State Offices.
Contest in Florida.
Indiana voters were choosing
nominees for II House seats and
for State offices.
In Florida, there was a con-
test for the nomination for Gov
ernor, to fill an unexpired term
Of the late Gov. Dan McCarty,
and for eight House seats and a
number of State Offices.
In New Mexico, Republicans
were choosing nominees for Gov
ernor and for two House seats.
Chief attention in Indiana
centered on an intra-party con-
test for control of the State Re-
publican organization now domi-
mated by Senators Homer Cape
hart and William E. Jenner.
Gov. George N. Craig, chal-
lenging that control. hoped to
win enough friendly precinct
committeeman to pave the way
for eventual control of the State
organization.
AS far as House seats go, the
chief interest was on the fight
In the 9th district, where Rep
resentative Earl Wilson faces
State Senator Ed Whitcomb for
the G. o. P. nomination.

New Gas Wells May
Offset Decline In
County Production

The gradual decline in the pro-
duction of natural gas in Garrett
county may be offset by recent
new wells which seem to be pro
ductivc.
Two of them are in the Red
House area and there arc reports
of large daily capacity. The re-
ports arc unconfirmed, however
and will not be known definitely
until pipcd into the lines. The two
wells are located on the Arnold
farm and the Lee Shaffcr farm
The we'll on the Arnold farm is
said to be the larger of the two.
Another well is expected to come
in momentarily in the Accident
area. This one is located on the
Miller farm near that town,

Barrels of Sand
For The Skidders

During the Indian Summer peri
Cd which seems to be about at an
end, the town has been making
preparations to case the tension of
automobile drivers, slipping and
sliding in a sudden storm.
The town of Oakland has pro-
vided several barrels Of salt and
sand placed strategically to aid
motorists who are caught on par
ticularly slippery areas before the
town truck has had an opportunity
to make the rounds.
They have been placed at the
corner Of Third and Center, Alder
and Third, the Third street bridge
over the railroad, and the railroad
crossing area on Second street. The
State also has a similar container
at the overhead bridge on Oak
street.
Having this material will keep
many cars from getting stuck
when the streets become icy with
out warning. Henry Arnold, police
chief, said it would also enable
him to get around in his police car
to these spots and sand the roads
temporarily until the city truck
arrives to do the job more thor
oughly.
