BALTIMORE. Nov. Free.
Swinging George P. Mahoney last
might charged his Republican op.
ponent with voting against can.
Ger research and said that any.
one who did so sis not a human
being"
Mr.. Mahoney, in one of the
most unbridled speeches of his
campaign. dashed out repeatedly
at Senator Butler in an appear.
ance at the Young Mems Bohe-
milan Democratic Club here.
Referring to Senator Butler:
vote for the natural gas bill, Mr.
Mahoney said ut would have in
creased gas bills in Maryland
25 to SO per cent"
Mr.. Mahoney, questioning Sen
ator Buffers reasons for voting
for the bill, said:
II have sneaky feeling why
he did it, but it isn't for me to
accuse him."
Then referring to Senator But
ller's 1850 campaign contributions
from Texas. Mr.. Mahoney con-
tinued:
Il don't say he is dishonest
but I do say he turned his back
on you"
Charging that Senator Butler
voted against cancer research
Mr.. Mahoney said:
THAT makes me real sore
anyone who votes against funds
for cancer is not a human being. =
Urging the audience to bring
him their problems, such as "a
letter from the Federal Govern
ment that frightens you"
Mr.. Mahoney blasted Senator
Butler for closing his Office in
Baltimore and said he did SO "be-
cause it was a nuisance to him. "
Mr.. Mahoney also had praise
for Mayor D'Alesandro, former
Solicitor General Philip Perlman
and former Senator Herbert r.
O'Conor., who took to television
last night to urge his election.
Mayor D'Alesandro and Mr.
Perlman this summer did their
best to prevent Mr.. Mahoney
from getting the senatorial nom
nation after former Senator
Willard E. Tydings had to with
draw because of illness.
Mr.. Perlman called Senator
Butler "the friend of Senator
McCarthy of Wisconsin and
other reactionary elements of
the Republican Party in the
Senate of the United States"
Mayor D'AleSandro admitted
that II have been at odds polit-
ically upon occasion in the past
with George Mahoney," but said:
Those who understand poll
tics realize that these differences
are not personal, but for the
most part, represent different
approaches to the same prob
lens"

HOW TO WRITE IN VOTES
! Strict Rules important
] In Machine BoIIotino

For most residents of the
Washington Metropolitan Area
outside Of the voteless District
voting for candidates of their
choice involves only the manipu-
lation of levers and pointers on
the mechanical voting machines.
4 But even inside the curtained
enclosures of the machines, the
voters may have occasion to use
pens, pencils or special stickers.
These old-fashioned balloting
utensils will be used by citizens
who desire to cast write-in bal
lots for candidates not listed on
the voting machine panels.
Election officials in nearby
Maryland and in Arlington
County, areas where the ma
chimes will record next Tuesdays
votes. have urged supporters of
Erite-in candidates to comply
with the rules imposed by the
voting contraptions.
No Minor Parties Listed
In Montgomery and Prince
Georges Counties, the machine
ballot lists, in the presidential
and vice presidential race, only
the two Republican candidates
and the two Democratic candi-
dates.
In nearby Maryland, there
fore, to cast a presidential and
vice-presidential ballot for can
didates other than Eisenhower
and Nixon or Stevenson and Ke-
fauver, the voter must record
his choice in a rectangular slot
near the top Of the voting ma
chine, on the left side, above
the names Of the listed presi-
Dental candidates.
A write-in ballot for a presi-
Dental ticket will be allowed
only If the names Of the candi-
dates nine electors are written
in the slot. A sticker on which
the electors names are printed
may be used.
Smaller Slots
incidentally, to expose a writ
ing Cor sticking) surface in the
top-row slot or window, a metal
panel covering the slot must be
lifted. Once raised. the voter
cannot flick the pointers directly
beneath for the listed candidates.

quick review Of the situation in
preparation for critical question:
ing by the Senate Foreign Rela-
tions Committee.
Informants said one issue at
which Mr.. Dulles will take a new
look is Israel's request, pending
since last November. for $50
million worth of weapons to
counter Egypt's arms purchases
from Communist Czechoslovakia.
There is considerable specula-
ton in the State Department
that Mr.. Dulles may soon decide,
subject to approval by President
Eisenhower, to sell Israel some
defensive weapons such as anti
aircraft guns or jet fighter
planes.
No Change in Policy
However, informed officials
said this question is still open.
They said there has been no
change in the policy OF delaying
a decision on the request while
seeking by diplomacy to ease
Arab-Israeli tension.
On his return from the BAHIA
mas Islands yesterday, Mr..
Dulles said he first learned of
the uproar over the shipment
Of tanks to Saudi Arabia when
he reached Miami and began to

Russia dangled a tempting
offer Of technical aid before
Lebanon today in renewed eff
forts to stimulate trade with the
Arab state and keep it out of the
western camp.
A six-man economic develop
ment commission has begun an
intensive two-week campaign to
boost Soviet trade with the Leb-
anese before launching similar
drives in Syria. Egypt and other
Arab states.
Soviet Minister S. P. Kiktev
called on pro-western President
Camille Glamour shortly after
the mission arrived yesterday.
The Russian repeatedly offered
Soviet technicians and equip
ment to build up Lebanon's trade
with the Communist bloc and
further her development prof.
ects.
The aid offer was said to in
volve road building. hydroelec-
trio dams, irrigation. railway and
seaport improvements.
The Russians launched their
latest economic campaign at a
time when the Arab states are
bitter against western support of
Israel.
Already intrigued over the
prospects Of real Soviet techni-
cal aid, many Arab leaders are
expected to grab the chance to
play Soviet offers against Ameri-
can aid programs.
Syria, which has moved to the
left over the past year. is ex-
pected to welcome the Soviet
mission. Czechoslovakia and
Russia already are bidding
against western companies to
build a giant oil refinery in
Syria.

House Group
Starts Study Of
District Budget
BY DON S. WARREN

A five-man House Appropria-
ton subcommittee today began a
searching examination of the
proposals of the District Com
Imissioners to spend at least
I$182.8 million in the fiscal year
beginning July /.
If the financing is arranged,
through new loads of taxes and
a higher Federal payment, the
city heads will submit an addi-
Itional budget of 1872 million for
public works projects. This would
raise the grand total to $l96
million.
The added layer has been held
back pending congressional ac-
Ition on new revenue measure,
now awaiting final action by the
fiscal subcommittee Of the
House and Senate District Com
mittees. This joint group hopes
to write up its revenue bill at a
session next Monday.
Makeup Of Subcommittee
The House Appropriations sub
committee is headed by Repre-
sentative Rabaut. Democrat of
Michigan. The others are Rep
lresentative Passman Of Louisi-
ana and hatcher of Kentucky.
Democrats, and Wilson Of In
diana and James of Pennsyl-
vania, Republicans.
All served on the same sub
committe last year when some
heavy cuts in the city's SPEND
ing plans were recommended to
the House and approved there.
AS the first session began to-
day. with the press and public
excluded. in keeping with the
custom of the House Appropria-
Itions Committee. Chairman Ra-
baut was asked for a general
comment, and was he looking
for economies. His answer was:
I'VE are beginning a general
study of the whole budget plan.
with a view of being as gracious
Ias possible"
On Capitol Hill there is no
lodging the fact that the Dis
Itrict not only again has a A.
financial crisis but that it appears
more formidable than before.
Depends on Federal Share
The whole plan of the city
heads is based not only on a
proposed $10.1-million increase
in city taxes, but also on an in
crease in the Federal payment.
Under present law the Federal
payment is supposed to be 500
million. Last year the House
called for a 81 million reduction
lin this, later compromising with
the Senate on a Federal share OF
I$l8 million.
The pending budget calls for
Ia Federal payment of $22 million.
Also before the House Appropri-
atoms Committee is a Budget
Bureau-District request to re-
store the 50 million in the Fed
Ieral share that was lost last year.
This financial picture is ex-
pected to be explored in the
opening days of the Rabaut sub
committee hearings. Among the
first witnesses to be heard in the
Executive sessions were James L.
Martin. city finance officer and
assessor. and Schuyler Lowe,
director Of General Administra-
ton. The Commissioners and
other officials will be questioned
on the same theme.
If past practices are followed,
as is expected. taxpayer and
other civic groups will be heard
by the Rabaut subcommittee at
an open hearing before the sub
committee sits down to write up
Its own bill.
