Mr.. Turnbull said Senator

Mr.. Turnbull wrote to Senator

"Mr. Mahoney has assured me
that he will cooperate fully

two years by introducing the
major share Of his legislative

the end Of the session, TOO late
to be enacted.
Mr.. Prendergast said Mr..
Landlord has been giving Presi-
dent Eisenhower token support,

but the district needs someone
who will vote with the President
more often than that"
Mr.. Presdergast spoke at a
party rally. attended by about
$50 persons, at the Legion Hall
In Greenbelt. Md.
Later, Mr.. Landlord issued a
statement which said:
MY opponent has been meas
uring my record in Congress by
my support Of the Eisenhower
Republican legislative program.
I supported the President when
ever / thought he was acting in
the public interest. / opposed
him when I felt that his pro-
gram was not for the COM
mon good. l would have followed
the same principle had the Pres
ident been a member of my own
party. After all, represent the
people of the 5th Maryland
District in Congress and not the
occupant Of the White House.
MY opponents charge that
introduced legislation too late in
the session for action reveals his
lack Of knowledge Of legislative
procedures. This legislation was
introduced so that the necessary
research and committee work
could be done and these hurdles
would be passed when the next
session of Congress convenes."

By GENE GOODWIN

The Maryland Democratic
campaign committee chairman
yesterday accused Republican
Senator Butler of trying to buy
his way back into the Senate.
Specifically, the Democratic
leader, State Senator John O..
Turnbull, attacked reported
plans of Senator Butler to spend
$4,000 for radio and television
time this fall in his campaign
against Democrat George p.
Mahoney.
Mr.. Turnbull made his attack
in a letter to Senator Gore.
Democrat Of Tennessee. who is
chairman of the Senate Sub
committee on Privileges and
Elections.
The Marylander asked Sem
ator Gore to include the 1856
Butler-Mahoney campaign in
its current investigation Of cam
paign spending.
Fund ALLEGATION Revealed
The ammunition for Mr..
Turnbull's criticism came in
Cumberland earlier last week
when Senator Butler told re-
porters that his finance commit
tee had budgeted $4,000 for ra-
do and television time in a to-
tai budget of about $4,000
Mr.. Turnbull said $4,000 is a
Enthusiastically high" amount to
spend for "a massive brainwash-
ing Of the voters via radio and
television paid advertising"
BY contrast. his letter stated,
Mr.. Mahoney spent only $685.

successful 1852 general election
campaign against Republican
Senator Beall. The letter said

that purpose in the 1852 Demo-
