Byrd Calls McKeIdin

By Alex R. Preston

BALTIMORE. Oct. 2S.-Gov.
McKeldin was accused today Of
displaying a soft attitude to-
ward criminals by committing
the death sentences Of seven
convicted murderers.
The charge was made by DR..
H. C. Byrd, Democrat. who is
attempting to wrest the Gov
ernor's chair from his Republic
can opponent in Tuesdays elec-
ton.
In a statement from his head
quarters, DR.. Byrd implied that
Gov. McKeldin had political mo-
tives when he refrained from
upsetting the death sentences
of the courts little more than
a year before he came up for
reelection.
If elected, the Democrat said,
II will not play politics with law

"Our Maryland courts" DR..
Byrd said, ''have a reputation
for fair administration Of justice
It is inconceivable that, in seven
consecutive murder trials, the
decisions and sentences Of the
courts could have been such
gross miscarriages Of justice as
to call for interference from the
chief executive Of the State.
Gov. McKeldin has made a prac-
tice of substituting his judgment
for those of the courts.

Methodists 10 Form
Another District in
Newport News Area
By Cospor Names
Star Staff Correspondent

RICHMOND, Va, June IS
The Virginia Annual Conference
of the Methodist Church today
voted to form a new district in
the Newport News and Hamp-
ton-Warwick area.
BY it's action the conference
raised the number of its districts
from ii to Is.
The new district, to be known
as the Peninsular District, will
have 26 churches with a mem
bership of 14,142 persons. In
order to form this district, IL
churches will be taken from the
Norfolk District and IA churches
from the Portsmouth Newport
News District. The new designa-
ton will go in effect imme-
diately.
A debate of one hour and Is
minutes preceded the vote. The
delegates accepted the minority
report. The majority report had
recommended that another year
be given over to study of the
problem.
DR.. w. Kenneth Haddock,
superintendent of the Norfolk
district, told the gathering that
time was important since the
peninsula area was growing so
rapidly that churches were hav-
ing difficulty buying land to put
up buildings. He declared the
people of that area were anxious
for the redistricting and had
pledged financial steps toward
defraying the expenses of a dis
trict superintendent salary and
a place for him to live.

Eden Sees MoIotoV
As Geneva Farley
Nears Breakdown
Nv The A,.oeiatsd Pre.s

GENEVA, June 15.-British
Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden
and Russia's v. M. Molotov met
in a hurriedly arranged private
session today as the Geneva
Conference appeared moving
rapidly toward a breakdown.
The Soviet foreign minister
requested the meeting as the 16
nations which fought in Korea
on the U. N. side drafted a dec
laration saying further talks on
Korean unification were useless
at this time. Authoritative
quarters said they agreed unani-
mously this morning that to-
days session would be the final
one on Korea.
The Is planned to present the
statement at a session of the
19-nation Korean Conference
this afternoon. The U. N. allies
want to refer the Korean issue
back to the international organi-
zation.
The Indo-China phase of the
conference was in recess until
tomorrow, when it will take up
the Western demands that Com
munist-led Wet Mimi forces get
out of Laos and Cambodia.
Western sources said Commu-
mist reaction to these demands
on Laos and Cambodia would
determine whether the Indo-
China talks will continue.
Mr.. Eden made this fact clear
at a secret session yesterday. He
told the nine-party meeting that
the Indo-China conference had
made but one solid achievement
in its seven weeks OF delibera-
tion-the start of military dis
cussions between representatives
of the French Union and the
Communicated Wet Mini.
Mr.. Eden was understood to
have added that if the parley
fails to make progress tomorrow
en- the problem of Laos and
Cambodia, he was not sure it
would be worthwhile to continue
debate. ...s.-
This stand was regarded as
particularly significant, since
Mr.. Eden in the earlier stages
of the conference had been the
most patient of the Western
leaders.
