Byrd Denies Making
Deal With PoIIack
BY the Assoeioted Press

BALTIMORE, March 81
Lyman Pressman. incessant
critic of public officials and those
who want to be, asked DR.. H. c..
Byrd today to disclose 1.-The terms
of your deal" with James H.
(Jack) Pollock, Baltimore politi-
cal leader.
Mr.. FRESHMAN, Baltimore attor-
ney. said in a letter to DR.. Byrd
he had word that YOU have
promised to deliver all State
patronage in the city of Balti-
more" to Mr.. Pollack if Mr.. Pol
lack would back DR.. Byrd for the
Democratic nomination for Gov
ernor.
DR.. Byrd replied:
IT would not have any part in
setting up any one man to con-
troll the political life in Baltimore.
The only deal that I shall have
with regard to State patronage
in Baltimore is that any person
who wishes may recommend any
person for any position, but that !
reserve the right to appoint the
best qualified man for any posi-
ton that may be OPEN"
Election time is approaching, "
said Mr.. Pollack, land it is
normal for the air to become pol
luted by wild and irresponsible
political statements-and this is
merely another example Of such
political pollution"
"There is no basis or founda-
ton for hot-air- hackneyed
hyinie's statement"
Mr.. Pressman said his letter
could not be interpreted as in
dorsement of George P. Mahoney.
DR.. Byrd's opponent in the
Democratic gubernatorial race.
The Baltimore attorney has
filed about a dozen taxpayers
suits against public officials and
agencies in what he describes as
a campaign for better govern
ment.

Attorney General today with a
blast at party enemies of George

Certain members Of the State

Mr.. Dorsey declared, "are once

he added, els to recapture the
governorship from the Republic

demonstrated that he is the man
who can do it,"
Mr.. Dorsey. SO. would not

ferred but observers here believe
his chief target was E. Brooke
Lee. Montgomery County party
leader who is directing the June

Deer Tracks Identified.
We. did not see any deer but
the naturalists in the party
identified deer tracks again and
again through the mountains. I
was surprised at the number of
ducks still on the river, not only
the black ducks, but mallards,
teals, red heads. and bald pates.
There are quite q few very
comfortable sportsmen's clubs
through the mountain areas.
The opposition of their members
to parkway bringing thousands
of automobiles through their
paradise is understandable.
One thing Is certain. Hiking
along at 20-mile a day rate is
no way to enjoy the natural
beauties Of the valley. It was q
stunt. It called attention to a
valuable property owned by the
people of the United States. But
it is likely To whet their appetite
for its enjoyment-by riding
