Stating that he was speaking
as alumnus Of the university,
Mr.. McKeldin said he is in
formed that publication of the
full report from the accreditating
committee Of the Middle States

damage" on the institution.
Apparently agreeing with the
recent decision of the Board of
Regents not to release the full
report at this time, Mr.. Nc
Keldin declared:
"The Byrd administration has
ended; therefore loyal alumni
are free to emphasize the fair
prospect that lies before the
university rather than dwell
upon the errors in its past.
I'm convinced, too, that the
people of the State are capable
of making an accurate estimate
of the character of the candidate
CDR. Byrd without learning
distressing details that might
react unfavorable on an instltu-
ton now happily free from his
control. The very fact that the
regents seem to have found the
report so shocking that they
deemed their duty to the uni
versity to keep it under lock ard
key, is eloquent.
With DR.. Byrd gone, the way
is now open for the development
of the University of Maryland

McKedn Takes Campaign Southern Maryland Counties Today
Renews BIust
At Byrd Rule
Of University
By Gene Goodwin
Stor Stoff Correspondent

LEONARDTOWN, Oct. 20. -
Continuing his bombardment of
DR.. H. c. Byrd's 18-year presi-
dency of the University of Mary
land, Republican Gov. McKeldin
today shifted his reelection
campaign to Southern Maryland.
The Governor, seeking to be-
come the first of his party ever
to win reelection to Maryland'S
highest Office, planned to tour
St. Marys County this afternoon
and keynote a rally in the court
house at Leonardtown tonight.
He was scheduled to be here
this morning but he Cancelled the
morning portion of the tour to
do some fence-mending in cru
cial Baltimore city, which he
predicts he will carry by better
than $4,000 votes.
Heavily Democratic.
The Governor of late has been
inclined to spend more and more
time in the city. He seems to feel
that If the segregation issue
raised by his Democratic oppo-
nent turns Southern Maryland
and the Eastern Shore against
him, he will need to carry the
city in order to win. Registra-
ton in the city is about 3 to /
Democratic.
Yesterday. Mr.. McKeldin be-
came a flying candidate in order
to speak and campaign in Cam
/ bridge, Baltimore and Talbot
County all in one day. He char
tered plane to carry him across
Chesapeake Bay and back for a
Baltimore luncheon address.
In his speech at poorly at
! tended rally in Easton last night,
after tour of Talbot County
the Governor suggested that the

appeared before the city commits
sion last night to tender an Off
cial invitation to visit his city when
the Key West Cuba ferry goes

In a brief address before the

that the start of ferry service will
be of benefit, not only to Cuba,
but to Key West. Your city has been
well-known to Cubans for genera

the first work for Cuban indepen-
dence was done here. We consider
all Key Westers to be Cubans," Co

Colina is en-route to Miami to
confer with officials of the ferry
company. He said that plans are
underway for a celebration to
mark the first voyage of the ship,

vessel is scheduled to dock at Car

Colina said that at the present,
there are 400 hotel rooms avail

addition of 1900 rooms, he added.

|CarageOwner
Complains OF
Discrimination

The city manager and the
! police chief were instructed
by the. city commission last
night to confer with local
garage owners TO deterrine
the feasibility of rotating
towing business arising from
accidents on city streets.
They took that action after the
wife of local garage owner, Mrs.
Erina Caraballo, complained that
police had refused to call her hus-
bands wrecker, even though the
car owner requested it.
Accident Cited
She cited an accident which &C.
CURED recently at Virginia and
Varela Streets. The owner of one
of the cars, she said, asked that
his car be towed to Franks Ser
vice Station, Eaton Street. But,
Mrs. Caraballo added, the motorist
was told by police that Jesus Cara
ballo, Simonton Street garage own
er, had the city contract for tow.
ing.
Jesus Caraballo recently under
bid his brother, Police Sgt. Frank
Caraballo, on the city towing con-
tract by agreeing to perform that
service at no cost.
However, it was brought out last
night that the contract is only for
cars towed away because they are
illegally parked or abandoned.
Motorists involved in accidents still
have the perogative of selecting
the garage to which they want their
cars lowed.
Rotation Suggested
Mrs. Caraballo suggested last
night that the city agree to a pol
icy of rotating the towing business
between the three local garages
interested in the service on a
monthly basis.
There is enough business in
town for all of U.S. said Mrs. Cara
ballo.
After discussion, the matter was
referred to the city manager and
the police chief with instructions
to make it clear that police should
be told that the owner of cars
towed away still have the choice
of which garage they shall be TAX
en- to.

While three members of the COM
mission were very definite in their
approval of the proposal, they de-
cided to ask that local residents
be allowed to vote on the question.
The state health department has
asked that the city and county
commissioners endorse fluoridation
before it gets underway here.
"Then they can't say that we
are trying to ram it down their
throats," said DR.. Delio Cobo, who
has been outspoken in advocating
controlled fluoridation of the water
supply.
Adverse Publicity
Cobo added that adverse news
paper publicity has ''put fear into
the public" concerning fluoridation.
DR.. Cobo and commissioner Jack
Delaney both said that their chill
dren are being treated with flu.
bride with no harmful effects. Co.
DO also pointed out that a couple
of years ago several hundred chill,
dren were treated at Truman
School, with none of the dire re.

that the Florida Keys Aqueduct

question. He said that he was per

from their dentist.
Certainly not" replied DR.. Co.
DO, "fluoridation of the water is
the best means. Oral application is
expensive and not everybody can
afford it."
DR.. Cobo pointed out that huori-
dation of the water supply would
cost just seven cents per year for

Rubin, according to an
Associated Press dispatch
also warned of similar action
against Commies in seven
other Florida areas as part
of a statewide drive.
Rubin said "action is definitely
planned" in Miami, Tampa, Jack.
sonville, Orlando, Fort Lauderdalc,
Lakeland, Key West and Daytona
Beach.
Paul Crouch, former member Of
the Communist Party and an un,
dercover agent for IL years, told
a conference of Miami officials
that there are at least 200 active
Communists" IN tthe state andi that
they are ''only the hard core" of
Red forces in Florida.
Small Cells
He said the 200 or more who
still pay dues are broken down
into cells of three members each
and hold meetings in moving au-
tomobiles instead Of regular plac-
es.
None of them carries a party
membership card any more" he
added. That's too risky. The or.
ganization keeps no written rec
ords, either, for fear they may
fall into the hands of the wrong
people"
Crouch said the menace is econ
siderable at all times" because
South Florida is only a step from
"a very hot situation in Cuba and
because Florida is the gateway to
Latin America, also dangerous
these days because of Communist
activities.
Rubin said Communists who
have been identified with the party
and who have recently left the
group should make the fact known
before "they get caught in the
statewide drive"
Warning Promised

munists in Florida really are, -

ing that the port facilities would
be suilt on the city property.
Commissioner Delaney said: ST
think we entered into this lease
too hastily, but if we hadn't signed
1t, the public would have cut our
throats."
City Attorney Porter then took
the floor to give his side Of the
controversy.
He prefaced his remarks with
the ocular comment that ''I have
some idea of how the Christians
felt when they were led into the
arena"
Porter said that his part in the
negotiations began when he was in
structed to draw up a lease assign.
ment in which Joe Sirugo, former
holder Of the lease, gave 1t back
to the CITY,.
Concessions Made
When talks between the city and
Caribbean Ferry Systems got under
way, he said that he was told to
draw up supplementary agree
ment covering additional concess-
ions asked by the ferry company.
They were:
1. The term of the lease would
be increased from 20 to rs years.
z. The company would have the
privilege of building on either the
city property or the adjacent lands
owned BY the Gulf Oil Co.
8. An option allowing the COM
pany touy the property immed.
The city commission agreed to
the first two conditions" Porter
said, "and ! drew up the final
lease and 1t was read in full and

Porter added that on August
8, he was contacted by Joseph r.
Church, secretary of the ferry
company, and a naval architect.
The three of them, Porter said,
went to the Simonton Street
property and surveyed it. The
ferry officials tentatively decide
to place the dock at that site.
