Butler Blasts
|Mdhoneyo on
Foreign Policy

! BALTIMORE. Oct. % (P).-
Republican Senator John Mar.
shall Butler courted the Balti.
more Negro vote yesterday anc
blasted the foreign policy pro-
Inouncements of his opponent
Democrat George P. Mahoney.
Today, Senator Butler contin.
ued to campaign in Baltimore
City where he plans to spenc
the week. Mr.. Mahoney is max
ing a Howard County tour which
will be climaxed with a rally al
West Friendship Heights tonight
The Republican, in a statement
issued by his Washington head
quarters, derided Mr.. Mahoney'S
Sunday statement that observ-
lers generally "agree that the So
Wet troubles in Poland grow out
of the Yugoslavs' continued show
Iof independence toward the
Kremlin."
View Reflects Ignorance"
Mr.. Mahoney credited this in
dependence to a Democratic
policy, which he said was con-
Itinued by President Eisenhower
Iof giving aid to Tito.
Senator Butler said, 1T must
be obvious to Marylanders that
such a statement reflects igno.
rance Of the true situation. Tito
detected years ago and nothing
happened in Poland or the other
Soviet satellites.
THE real cause of the current
satellite movements against Rus
Isia was the down-grading OF
Stain. 1t brought the release
from prisons of anti-Stalin and
Ipro-nationalist leaders in the
smaller countries behind the
Iron Curtain"
Raps Other Stands
Now that we find Mr.. Ma
honey publicly championing
Tito !" said Senator Butler
'it would be appropriate for him
to tell the people whether he
also Endorses Adlai Stevenson
proposal to dangerously weaken
American defenses by ending
the draft and the hydrogen
bomb tests"
The Senator also said Mr.. Ma
honey has apparently swallowed
the Dean Acheson appeasement
line on foreign policy"
While campaigning in Balti-
more, Senator Butler defended
his civil rights record at a meet
ing in a Negro church.
The audience of 81 ministers
responded with an Endorsement
of Senator Butler and the entire
Republican ticket.

strong characters.
And like a nut he got
cracked" Mr.. Acheson said.
Perhaps then. what we need
is a strong character represent
ing Maryland in the Senate.
Whatever has been said about
George P. Mahoney. no one has
ever said he is a weak character"
Talks in Prince Georges
Mr.. Acheson apparently re-
ferred to a recent statement by
Senator Butler that in 1850 he
was caught between "the two
strong characters" of former
Democratic Senator Willard
lTydings and Senator Mccarthy,
Republican of Wisconsin. Sena-
tor Butler defeated Mr.. Tydings
for the Senate seat he is now
seeking to retain over the oppo-
Isition of Mr.. Mahoney.
Mr.. Acheson, who lives in the
Sandy Spring section of Mont
gomery County. spoke to some
500 Democrats at a $25-a-plate
banquet in Prince Georges
County.
He said, Every single Demo-
Icrat in Montgomery County is
for Mr.. Mahoney" and noted
that sit embarasses him a little
for me to say critical things
about his opponent"
proves He's a Fool"
The man who has been a Nc
Carthy target even more than
/ Mr.. Tydings recalled that three
weeks ago in a Montgomery
County speech he had referred
to Senator Buffers 1850 cam
lpaign as contemplate"
This seemed to be offensive
to Mr.. Mahoney's opponent, 3"
Mr.. Acheson said. In his tele-
vision reply last week. he tSena-
tor Butler, went considerably out
of his way to prove that he is a
fool. All we had suggested is
that he was a rascal"
Mr.. Acheson told his Prince
Georges Country Club audience
that the 9Th congressional dis
Itrlct. where he lives, has been
asking Democratic Representa-
tive Landlord long enough to
represent the 9Th as well as his
own 5th district.
Were going to elect Demo-
crat ourselves this year" he
added, because, after all, Mr..
Landlord is only being paid to
represent one district"
The 9Th district is repre-
sented by Republican Repre-
sentative Hyde. who is being OPP
posed by Democrat John R.
Foley.
Hits Butler Record
Mr.. Mahoney,. in his speech,
said Senator Butler has been
in the forefront of every back
ward measure introduced in the

ing an addition to the Sherwood
Elementary School in Sandy
Spring, Md.
Mrs. Helen Scharf, board chair
man, said the total cost of the
school of 5000, 400 will cover the
cost of a kitchen in the project
despite the fact that the county
council in it's annual appropria-
ton for school construction con-
templated the deletion of a
kitchen after it slashed funds
for the project.

$40 million operating budget and
an enrolment of $1,000 pupils.
Despite record breaking out
lay of $45 million in the past
seven years for new. school con-
Istruction, the school system will
have to spend IS million a year
for the next four years to keep
pace with constantly mounting
enrolment, DR.. Norris said.
Even if it were possible to
hold per capita costs stationary"
he said, I'VE would still face an
increase in operation cost of at
least SIS million per year be-
cause of increased enrolment"
NOrthwOOd Problems
The board, after receiving the
report, occupied much of its
Ifour-hour meeting with prob
lens arising from the opening of
the new $2.3 million Northwood
IJunior-Senior High School on
Old Bladensburg road.
The board heard a protest
from a group of parents from the
Argyle Club Estates and Sunset
Hills subdivisions, which are off
the Sligo Creek parkway near
Forrest Glen road.
Myer Koonin, spokesman for
the group, protested the lack of
school bus transportation for
INorthwood students living in the
subdivision He claimed that
many of them can reach the
school only by hazardous routes.
Parents Apprehensive
Mr.. Koonin said that parents
are apprehensive about letting
the children walk through Sligo
Creek Park and also are fearful
of the heavy traffic off Old
Bladensburg road.
A board member, Wylie Bar
row. criticized members of the
school staff when it was re-
vealed that the lockers in the
school up to now have lacked
locks with the result, Mr.. Bar
row said, that children have to
carry lunches all over the school.
Another snarl at the school
was revealed when James C.
Sheldon, supervisor of construc-
ton for the school system, pre-
sented a request for the pur-
chase of $4,000 worth of hard
ware for the school. Mr.. Shell
don explained that a typograph-
ical error in drawing original
specifications resulted in an al
lowance of only $3.50 for hard
ware in the big new school.

Senator John Marshall Butler
and Representative Dewitt S
Hyde.
Mr.. Hyde based his own talk
on assailing his Democratic OPP
ponent, John R. Foley, as an
apparent mouthpiece of the
AFL-CIO Committee on Political
Education,
Mr.. Hyde strongly defended
his own voting record and said
that despite false propaganda
being spread about me- the rec
ord will show he represented all
the people and not any one
particular segment.
my opponent says that 1 am
the tool of big business, but OF
course he fails to mention my
work to strengthen the anti

also accused Mr.. Foley of twist
ing and distorting" his vote
for such workingman's benefits
as unemployment compensation
improved social security, mini
mum wage increases and postal
pay raises and failed to mention
votes he made for Federal pay
and retirement annuity in
