than an hour at the Senate
Office Building today, but in
sisted later that they did not
discuss politics in general or the
1856 election In particular.
The party chairman said the

Mr.. Nixon was to discuss the pos

make a series Of speeches which
the Vice President had planned
in various parts of the country
during October. Mr.. Hall added
that naturally Mr.. Nixon will

the time being"
When Mr.. Nixon left his Office

Congress ct It's coming session
may be asked to clear up an i'm
lportant problem growing out Of
the heart attack suffered by
President Eisenhower.
It is: Who shall decide that q
President of the United States
lis unable. under the Constitution,
Ito discharge his presidential
duties, which then would devolve
on the Vice President, and what
standards should be used?
A corollary question is: Who
shall determine when the disa-
,bility Of a President has ended
and he shall return to the con-
duct OF his Office as Chief Ex-
lecutive.
The Supreme Court. as inter-
prefer of the Constitution. also
may have something to say on
these questions. Through all OF
american history they have
never been answered specifically
and the Constitution is not clear
on these points.
Although two Presidents--Gar-
field and Wilsofl--were incapaci-
Itated for long periods. in neither
case did the Vice President as
sumo any of the powers Of the
President or act for him.

On Road Lund

The Maryland State Roads
Commissions first legal action
against alleged right OF : way
speculation in Montgomery
County was thrown out Of court
yesterday by Circuit Judge Kath-
ryn ]. Lawlor.
The commission had brought
suit against Mr.. and Mrs. John
B. Hudson Of 54l2 Fourteenth
place, Michigan Park Hills,
Hyattsville, charging them with
Misrepresentation in Kensing-
ton property deal.
The Hudsons sold a house in
Kensington to the commission
last November for $26.500. Tax
stamps indicated the house had
been bought by them for $22.500.
The commission alleged that 1t
agreed to the $26,500 price after
the Hudsons claimed they had
another contract for sale at $685.
600. The commission said 1t
later discovered no such con-
tract existed at the time Of its
negotiation with the Hudsons.
Judge Lawlor said the States
claim of Misrepresentation is not
q statement Of fact showing
how the alleged misrepresenta-
ton was established"
The l4,700-square-foot tract
was purchased for the widening
Of Connecticut avenue in Kens-
ington.
The Hudson lot was purchased
for the State by Ben Du Pre- Of
Bethesda, former assistant right
of-way engineer for the COM
mission who was accused of
leaking information about high
way plans to land SPECTATORS.
When it was brought out at q
hearing last July that Mr.. Du

signed.
