Sothoron Says 6. o. P
Hurts Small Business

L. Harold Sothoron, Washing
ton attorney seeking to unseat
Representative Landlord in the
May 7 Democratic primary in
Maryland, last night charged the
Republicans with neglecting
small business interests.
There is a widespread fable. y
he told the Southern Prince
Georges County Board of Trade,
that Republicans are better for
business than Democrats. Per-
Ihaps this is true for big business,
but from 1948 to 1852, the
number of new businesses grew
at the rate of $4,000 a year. From
1852 through 1855, the number
grew at the rate Of only $500 q
year."

The Prince Georges Demo-
cratic organization announced
today that it is refunding Rep
|resentative Landlord. Democrat
OF Maryland. $234.06 of the So
900 he contributed to the county
1854 campaign fund.
But Mr.. Landlord won't take
lit.
His Office issued a counter-an-
|nouncement, stating that the
House member is sending the
check back to the county or
ganization because he did not
ask for it.
The request originated with
the Prince Georges County Citi-
zen's Committee for Landlord,
which Saturday asked that "at
least half" of the balance of $4,-
447.16 remaining after the 1854
county campaign be refunded to
them. Otherwise, the congress-
mans own money would be used
against him in this years cam
Ipaign.
Mr.. Landlord was supported
by the Prince Georges Demo-
cratic organization in 1854. But
this year that group is backing
u. Harold Sothoron for the 5th
district nomination in the May
a Democratic primary.
The $234.06 represents Mr..
Landlords ,proportionate share
of what was left from the 1854
fund, according to William L.
Kahler, campaig n committee
chairman.
Mr.. Kahler didn't say so, but
1924. 06 is about 5 per cent of the
balance.
In a letter to Mr.. Landlord,
Mr.. Kahler said he was amazed
at the citizens committee re-
quest. The money which Mr..
Landlord and others contributed
in 1854. Mr.. Kahler said. was
used for brochures. newspaper
ads, television programs, placards
and the like, from which the
CONGRESSMAN benefited.

Girl Dies From
Shotgun Blast

An 18-year-old Negro high school
girl died in Milford Memorial Hos
pital last Saturday morning of
shotgun wounds police said were
apparently self-inflicted
The victim, identified by state
police as Dorothy McEachin of
Houston, was quoted as telling an
ambulance driver she shot herself
because she was tired of living" P"
Miss McEachin lived with Mr.
and Mrs. John Cooper, who are un-
derstood to be relatives. Mr.. Coop
er found her lying in a pool of
blood in chicken house at his
place when he investigated the
sound of shot.
Nearby, state police at the
Georgetown troop said, was a
single-barrel, bolt-action, 12-gauge
shotgun. Mr.. Cooper summoned
state police and the Milford ambu-
lance.
The girl, wounded in the lower
chest, died at $3.50 a. m. DR.. S. S.
Bjornsson, the state medical ex-
aminer, was scheduled to perform
an autopsy.
Ambulance driver Oscar Maloney

self. State police said powder burns
on her body led them to the same
conclusion, but they have not
closed their investigation.

student at the Benjamin Banneker
