PRINCE FREDERICK. Nd.
June 1.-THE Byrd Democrats
are coming to town."
That electrically amplified an
nouncement echoed through
Calvert County yesterday. as
State Senator Louis L. Goldstein,
like q mobilized Pied Piper. led
DR.. H. c. Byrd and his running
mates on a speedy Handwriting
tour Of II communities and
points in between.
Afterward. DR.. Byrd oozed
confidence mot only in regard
to the acceptance Of his guber-
Material candidacy here, but
throughout the State.
The "real truth" Of the mat
ter. he told q supper Of support
ers at Chesapeake Beach. Is that
his opponent for the Democratic
gubernatorial nomination. George
p. Mahoney, "can not state with
confidence that any single polit-
ical unit in this State is in his
column"
Sees Need Of Economy.
DR.. Byrd added, however. that
perhaps some of the reports he
has from the field are somewhat
optimistic and Mr.. Mahoney
may carry two or three"
He said the cost of govern
ment must be kept as low as pos
sible. because Marylanders are
faced with the dilemma Of rising
taxes and decreasing incomes.
He pointed to two problems
which he said ARE going to tax
our ingenuity segregation and
juvenile delinquency.
Senator GOldstein. who is ma
jority leader Of the Senate. is ex-
pected to deliver Calvert's three
unit votes to DR.. Byrd in Mon
days primary. The Senator
himself is unopposed Monday,
and the Republicans have put
no one up against him In the
general election in November.
With the Byrd tour yesterday
were c. Ferdinand Sybert, his
running mate for attorney gen.
eral: Richard +. Landlord Of An
napOlis, running with Byrd sup
port for the 5th Maryland dis
trict congressional nomination,
and q host Of local leaders and
candidates.
Loudspeaker Greetings.
Shouting greetings through
the loudspeaker on his car ia
persons he passed on the road.
Senator Goldstein introduced
DR.. Byrd, Mr.. Sybert and MIR.
Landlord to scores of persons in
Prince Frederick and the Solo
mons area. The Senator seemed
to know most Of them by their
first names.
At the Solomons Yacht Basin.
Mr.. GoldStein led his parade to
q rear screened porch, where
they came on q woman doing
her ironing.
That's why I go in the back
way" the indefatigable Senator
remarked. you never meet
anybody In q living room on q
day like today"
DR.. Byrd, who was football
coach at Maryland before he
became president, got perhaps
his biggest thrill Of. the day
when he ran into q husky young
man wearing q T-shirt with the
words ''McDonogh School" print
ed across the front.
"You play football. SOM" DR.,
Byrd asked.
The young man said he played
tackle and that he weighed 225
pounds.
"You going to Maryland when
you graduate?" the candidate
said.
II sure am" the young husky
replied.
Good boy" said DR.. Byrd
patting the youngster on his
muscular shoulder and breaking
out into a smile that lasted the
rest Of the day.

These are impressive words and
ought to be read by every union
man. The present hostility Of the
bosses toward the President does
not greatly disturb the Republic

course, be agreeable to the bosses
to have a man in the White House

THE RUMEN STORY

Purina research men, like a
lot Of other scientists, have
been studying the effect of diff
ferent rations on bacterial ac-
tivity in the rumen The rumen
is the first stomach of cattle
and sheep, and serves as a fer
mentation vat for grains and
rOughages.
Some supplements stimulate
bacterial growth others do
not. Bacteria work in the rumen
to release nutrients from grains
and rOughages. For this reason
some rations produce more
meat, milk and wool than others.
Based on Purina's research
work with the rumen, the com
pany has produced a color
movie, The Rumen Story You
won't want to miss this film.
