Mahoney's Food Gift
To Garrett Stirs Row.;
McKeIdin Asks Data
BY the Associated Press

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Feb. S.
George P. Mohoney's gift of
potatoes and flour to needy in
Garrett County yesterday pro-
voked cries of politics and dis
agreement over seriousness of
the unemployment situation.
! Gov. McKeldin decided to have
Thomas j. S. Waxter. State well
fare director. check the condi-
tions and give him report.
That was after the three
Republican Garrett delegates
told the Governor they felt
things weren't as bad as reported.
Senator Friend, also a Repub-
lican, in speech on the floor
said it was the opinion of every
one he spoke to that the reports
'have been exaggerated by a few
individuals for the purpose of
making political capital for
themselves"
He claimed that while unem-
ployment compensation figures
might indicate there are several
hundred out of work in Garrett.
this wouldn't be quite true
picture"
He said many of them are
farmers who once also had jobs
in industry.
"They have farms, homes,
flour in the bin, meat in the
smokehouse and potatoes in the
basement he said.
I'm sure they don't want to

become the objects of some one
else's charity.
There is no serious condition
in Garrett County that would
warrant the collection of food.
We have people in Garrett
County who are just as humane
and sympathetic as people else
where. Our people in Garrett
County will see that no one UP
there goes hungry"
MI. Mahoney, who dramatized
the unemployment situation by
taking 300 50-pound bags of po-
tatoes and 600-10-pound bags Of
flour to Oakland, denied any po-
lltical intent.
This is non- partisan, assure
you" he said.
Il am not a candidate for any,
thing and to imply this defeats
my purpose of helping people in
need"
he noted that the three coun-
ty commissioners who accepted
the food from him for distribu-
ton are Republicans.
Mayor Joseph Hinebaugh Of
Oakland took issue with Senator
Friend.
He said the most distressed
persons are coal miners and
lumbermen out of work whe
don't own farms.
There people are definitely
in need Of food" the Mayor
said. And officials in Garrett
County are not in a position to
help them because we just don't
have the funds"

another group of nations in
cluding the United States.
Thus. since the question has
been raised whether this is
an internal or international
crisis, it should be solved for
he benefit of peace by bring
ng it before the U. N.
Unfortunately. the U. N.
members are acting in the
iame manner as those Of the
old League of Nations which
was killed not by the interna-
tional lawbreakers but by the
great powers themselves which
preferred to compromise and
do nothing when the japanese
in 1881 and the Italian F'as-
cists five years later committed
International brigandage.
There is a similar tendency
mong the remaining world
powers now. The Security
Council is looking about hope
lessly for elegant solutions"
after it was kicked in the
teeth by the Peiping regime.
There are conversations be-
tween the U. N. representa-
tives in New York and more
active conversations between
the Commonwealth prime
ministers in London. The lat
ter seem to be dominated by
Chou En-lai's great friend
and admirer, India's Premier
Nehru.
The reaction to Chou's un-
oelievable arrogance was typi-
cal of the present frame OF
mind of some of our allies.
Instead of acting in keeping
with the U. N. Charter provi-
sionS, they are seeking a way
out by suggesting the sending
of some emissary, such as
Nehru. to beg the Peiping
Communist leaders to please
reconsider their terms. Our
fellow members in the Secu-
rity Council seem to overlook
the fact that the present crisis
was handmade by the Com
munists themselves and fol-
lows a definite and obvious
pattern.

Replacement Sought
For Liberty Ships
BY the Asseeiatsd Press

A new Freedom" ship. de-
signed to replace the aging
World War II Liberty" cargo
vessel, was described to Con-
gress yesterday.
j. j. McMullen, chief of the
Maritime Administrators Of
flee of Ship Construction and
Repair, told the House Mer-
chant Marine Committee that
the planned vessel would cruise
along at 1918 knots-compared
with around 10 for the Liberty
ship-and has other features
valuable in event of all-out mo-
bilization.
Mr.. McMullen described six
other ship designs, ranging
from cargo vessels to a ship to
carry truck trailers, which the
Government agency would like
to see as replacements for the
present United States merchant
fleet.
The Freedom ship would be
AIT feet long at waterlipe, would
cost about Sc million and carry
$500 cargo tons.

Bandit Locks 9 in Vault,

By the Assoeiafed Press

LAMONT, Iowa, Feb. 5.-A
two-gun bandit, who herded nine
persons into the vault of the
Lamont bank and escaped with
about $4,000 was still at large
today.
The holdup occurred just be-
fore closing time yesterday in
the Lamont Office Of the Farmers
State Savings Bank of Inde-
pendence. Bank officials said the
amount of loot had not been
determined.
The unmasked gunman chewed
an unlighted cigar as he forced
the bank manager, cashier and
seven patrons into the vault. The
imprisoned persons were re-
leased about a half-hour later.

New Faces in Congress
New Faces in Congress
Landlords Rise in Politics
Began as Campaign Manager
By Gene Goodwin

Richard Estep Lankford, the
new Democratic Representative
from Maryland's 5th congress
sional district has had a quick
climb up the political ladder.
A graying and bespectacled 40
today. Mr.. Lankford broke into
politics only eight years ago as
an assistant campaign manager
| in his own Anne Arundel County.
He had just returned from four
years with the Navy and had re-
opened his law Office in An
napolis.
| His work in that 1946 cam
paign impressed Democratic par
| ty leaders. When a vacancy arose
! in the Anne Arundel County dele
cation to the Maryland House of
Delegates. the county Demo-
cratic Central Committee recon-
mended Mr.. Lankford for the ap-
pointment and Gov. w. Preston
Lane made it official.
Won Election.
In 1850 Mr.. Landlord stood for
election and was returned to the
Maryland House with little diff
f1culty.
Two years later he made his
first bid for Congress when form
er Representative Lansdale G.
Sasscer of Upper Marlboro re-
cieded to give up his seat in the
House to attempt to win elec-
ton to the United States Senate.
That decision by man who had
represented his district in Con-
gress for IA consecutive years
sparked wide-open primary fights
in both parties for the choice
of his successor.
Mr.. Lankford became one of
eight candidates seeking the
nomination in his party. The
Republicans turned up with 10
candidates. When the dust of
that wild primary had settled.
| Mr.. Lankford held the prize as
the Democratic nominee and
Frank Small, jr,, of Clinton won
the Republican nomination.
Mr.. Small, of course. was the
victor in the general election
that followed, but he defeated
the Annapolis attorney by only
1,039 votes. Their campaign was
the most spirited the district had
seen in many years.
Back in legislature.
Mr.. Lankford said then that
he would run again in 1854. In
the meantime he returned to
serve out his four-year term in
the Maryland legislature, where,
because of his good showing
against Mr.. Small. he quickly
became one of the recognized
Democratic leaders.
His second congressional pri-
mary fight last June was less of
a trial than the first. He only
had to defeat two other con-
tenders this time-Walter L.
Green of Hyattsville. and Paul
Menk IF University Park. He
won the nomination and came
up against Mr.. Small again in
Evening star., 1955-02-05

The pocketbook nerve, when
pinched, eventually reacts. The
screech often is echoed here.
That explains the outburst
here from Representative Sid
ney Yates, Democrat, of Illinois.
He echoed a complaint from
constituents back home about
an increase in natural gas
prices that will cost nearly a
million and a half consumers
of Chicago and II northern Il
linois counties some $5,216.000.
The Peoples Gas and Light
Co., which was allowed the
increase, blamed it on higher
prices it must pay for natural
gas.
Mr.. Yates, in turn, traced the
higher prices for natural gas
to a decision several months
ago by the Federal Power Com
mission here. the now famous
Panhandle Eastern Pipeline
case, which changed the basis
for rate making from cost of
production to fair field price"
The Illinois Congressman in
troduced a bill in the House to
change the rate base back to
actual legitimate cost.
What is happening in Mr..
Yates constituency, and what
is happening similarly else
where, should not be surpris-
ing. Such increases were fore
cast at the time of the decision
by Senator Paul Douglas, Dem
ocrat, of Illinois, among others.
who predicted price increases
of several million dollars in
Chicago and northern Illinois
in a Senate speech nearly a
year ago, in March, 1854.
We may expect a rising
crescendo of protests from
consumers all over as they get
the bite" and "the business"
This is perhaps lucky. For
once alert. maybe consumers
will get on to another project
which big oil and affiliated
natural gas interests are about
to spring and try to get
through Congress. This will
add still more to the higher
costs already caused by the
Panhandle Eastern Pipeline
decision.
Behind this project is the

1850. They came near a mill
tary disaster which they
avoided only because Of the
weakened policies Of our
U. N. associates in the Korean
campaign. AS soon as they
averted the disaster and OBJ
tanned an armistice on their
own terms they directed their
attention to Indo- China. They
reinforced Ho Chi Mini suffi-
GENTLY to defeat the weak and
demoralized French-Viet Nam
forces. The Geneva surrender
of last summer followed.
Before the ink was dry on
the Geneva document the die
tators in Peiping announced to
the world where their next
aggression would be: Formosa
and the Pescadores Islands. AS
a preliminary step toward in
vasion of these islands they
must seize the Nationalist
held Tachen, Matsu and Que
moy Islands, and they proceed
ed to this by concentrating a
force estimated at some l mil
lion men and some 1000
planes. Can there be any doubt
in the minds of any right
thinking government as to
who the aggressor is?
Our Government has frankly
and positively announced that
we will defend Formosa and
the Pescadores and probably
other strategically important
islands. But we don't want to
fight unless we are actually
forced into battle. We enthusi-
astically agreed to placing the
whole matter before the U. N.
We voted to bring the
Chinese Reds to New York to
press their charges and Incl
dentally pledged ourselves not
toraise the matter of the Amer
ican military men held in Chi
nese jails. The answer Of the
men in Peiping should con-
vince the U. N. that unless it
wants to go the way of the
League of Nations it had bet
ter assert its powers.
The lessons of the past show
that wars have erupted in re-
cent history only when the
democracies were afraid to
stand UP to the dictators.

Reneging Is Charged
To Some Legislators
On Press Freedom
BY tn. As.oeiofsd Pres.

5.-Some members of Congress
say one thing and practice an
other on the issue of freedom of
the press. a Tampa newsman told
the National Editorial Associa-
ton here today.
v. M. Newton. jr., managing
editor of the Tampa Tribune and
chairman of Sigma Delta Chi's
National Committee for Ad-
vancement of Freedom of Infor-
nation, began quizzing Senators
and Representatives after learn
ing that A per cent Of all con-
gressional committee meetings
in 1853 were held behind closed
doors.
Later he found that Al per
cent of the 1854 meetings were
cloSed.)
Mr.. Newton wrote to all active
Senators at the time asking if
they favored open meetings.
Sixty-two answered, only 35 of
these being unreservedly in favor
of open meetings.
Favored by Jenner.
One of these. Mr.. Newton said.
was Republican Senator Jenner
of Indiana, chairman of the
Senate Rules Committee then
conducting hearings on proposed
changes in Senate rules which
allowed secret proceedings.
However. Mr.. Newton said.
most of those who testified be-
fore Senator Jenner's committee
were politicians.
Furthermore. mo representa-
tive of the free press has yet
testified before Senator Jenner's
committee on the right of the
American people to know all the
facts of their government. and
the committee is still holding
secret sessions" the Tampa
editor said
what kind of political mind
Is this?" Mr.. Newton asked. Can
it be that this is an example Of
senatorial talking out of both
sides of the mouth?"
Mr.. Newton said he agreed
with President Truman and
President Eisenhower that in
formation which might endanger
national security should be with
held, but that the presidential
directiveS are being abused.
Wiley Gives His Views.
He said Senator Wiley of Wis
consin. a Republican. then chair
man of the Senate Foreign Rela-
tions Committee, had written
him:
Il have often found a cloak
Of secrecy and mystery being
arbitrarily spread over informa-
ton which should have been
made completely public. mas
much as it did not in the slight
est infringe upon the security of
the United States"
Senator Humphrey, Mime
sofa Democrat, wrote: I'm my
opinion, it's time to break down
this marble curtain of closed
door sessions of the Senate For
eign Relations Committee and
deal squarely and openly with
the American people through the
medium of the American press"
Mr.. Newton recalled that last
year, after secret negotiations at
Geneva over Indo-C China, Secre-
tary of State Dulles returned
home and discussed the situa-
ton with our congressional lead
ers, in secret.
All Mr.. Dulles told the press
after this meeting, Mr.. Newton
said, was that lit is terrible
situation"
Now is the time to insist that
all of our diplomatic negotia-
tionS be conducted on top of the
table for all to see and for the
force of American public opinion
to be exerted on the rest of the
world in behalf of free govern
ment and the dignity of man."

biggest propaganda campaign
of its sort-and one of the most
expensive-seen by this city or
the country since that Of the
electric utilities several years
ago to try to avoid regulation
of abuses turned up during in
vestigations of the Hoover and
Roosevelt administrations.
The objective is enactment
of a bill to repeal" a recent
Supreme Court decision in the
long-drawn-out Phillips Petro-
leum case. In its decision, the
court ruled that the Federal
Power Commission must include
natural gas producers and
gatherers in investigations and
calculations relative to fixing
rates.
The proposed bill would ex-
empt producers and thus pre-
vent the FPC from getting all
the necessary facts for deci-
sions and weaken it as regu-
latory agency. In the Phillips
case, the FPC tried to free it
self of such authority over
producers; but the Supreme
Court held it must embrace
them. The proposed bill would
do what was the aim of the
Kerr bill passed by the Repub-
lican 80th Congress, but killed
by President Truman's veto.
The prime movers in this
new drive to break down the
FPC's regulatory authority are.
of course, the big oil companies
that own the bulk of natural
gas reserves. They are follow
ing pattern which is becom-
ing almost too familiar here
for the public good. That is,
if you are overruled by the
Supreme Court, then you 60 to
Congress and get 8 law passed
to overrule the Supreme

Court had ruled they belonged
