Smith Contrasts
Qualities In Top
Political Leaders
Almost 300 Fill Cafeteria
Lost Night For Republi-
can RoIly

The great contrast between the
present leaders of the Republican
party and those of the Democratic
party was outlined in detail last
night at an enthusiastic Republican
rally, as George Smith, a public
relations expert from Washington
urged the reelection of President
Eisenhower and Vice President
Nixon.
Mr.. Smith, in a searching po-
litical talk, pointed out Essen
howers outstanding ability in lead
ership, party principles and per-
fOrmance He dWelt at length on
Mr.. Eisenhower's achievements
during his last three and onc-half
years in office and stressed his out
standing military leadership, how
he has maintained the peace, uni
fled the nation and continued to be
a world leader.
He cited his deep religious con-
victions, his essential honesty and
sincerity, and what he had accom-
plished in restoring integrity and
dignity to the White House.
The meeting at Southern High
School, attended by almost 300 Re-
publican supporters in the county,
lacked the usual order Of mud
singing. US. Senator Glenn Beall,
in brief remarks. did read some
quotations about what Democrats
had said about themselves He
quoted a few phrases about what
Stevenson had said about Kefauver,
what Kefauver had said about Ste
venson. and what Truman had said
about both Kefauver and Steven
son. the Democratic candidates.
Mr.. Smith, in explaining the
Democratic candidates., declared
the opposition apparently would
do anything for vote and cited
instances where they had promised
benefits to practically every spe-
cialized group while at the same
time promising big reductions in
taxes. He cited particularly the
foolishness of SteVenson's demand
for abolishing the H-bOmb tests
and the ending of the draft
In his opening remarks he pointed
out what opportunities Garrett
County had as one of the pilot

Construction Of
Ski Slope Begins
Promotion Council Sponsors
Winter Sports Program

Construction on the Marsh Hill
ski slope got under way this week
by the Deep Creek Lake-Garrett
County Promotion Council This is
concerted effort to formulate
program of recreational activities
for the Garrett County area which
will last the year around
The Promotion Council is max
ing an initial investment of about
$4,000 on the project. 1t is con-
structing warming hut, sanitary
facilities, parking facilities and
erecting a 1,000-foOt rope tow.
Workmen are engaged this week
in removing stones and brush,
fences and other distractions from
the site which is located on prop
erty owned by Webster Brenneman,
near the site of the Garrett Coun-
ty summer playhouse. The ski slope
is located on the northeast slope of
Marsh Hill which has vertical
rise of 400 feet The total length
of the slope is about 1000 feet but
Helmuth Heise, president of the
Promotion Council, said they would
limit the tow to 1000 feet this year
on account of limited funds. He
said an additional outlay of $4,000
or more would have been required
to make a tow for the entire length
of the slope The drift width of the
slope is some 500 feet which is
calculated to give plenty of room
for all ski-ers.
Heise said the work should be
completed within three or four
weeks.
The addition of the ski slope will
add one more attraction to the area
in an effort to bring more and more
people here at all seasons of the
year. The possibilities of ice fish
ing, skating and other winter
sports are being investigated The
lake area also is being used as an
autumn vacation spot where all the
summer advantages are still in eff
feet except swimming.

two and a half months of wran-
Cling, a 39-day strike and State

tor Coach Employees, voted yes
terday, 1,248 to 1926, to accept q
Observation-Disclosures contract

and an additional paid holiday.
Ten cents of the raise will be-
come effective as of the date the
employees returned to work after
the State seized the firm, making
the hourly rate So. The other
10 cents is to come in separate
scent increases.
The union members went on
strike January 30 for higher pay
