"One hundred years ago men
preached defiance of law which
ended in secession and civil war.
Pray God. we may have courage
to be moderate in our time" said
Mr.. Smoot.
Defending himself on the Tex

said. II will plead guilty If I am

schools to maintain segregation.
when my opponent promises
you both segregation and public
schools under the law of this
land. he is promising you an
IimpoSsibility," said Mr.. Smoot.
Mr.. Thomson was a leader in
the passage Of current State
legislation designed to maintain
segregation. 1T took the in

law this way and I, for one, am
ready to fight 80 years to reverse
it," he said.
Mr.. Thomson also said his
opponent. through his pupil
assignment plan, was willing
to discriminate against the more
|uneducated Negro. He is going
to let the smart ones into the
white schools"
Massive Resistance"
The incumbent recalled that
Mr.. Smoot managed campaigns
for Gov. Stanley and Senator
Byrd, leaders in the massive
resistance" against the Supreme
Courts desegregation decision in

Mr.. Smoot replied that the
price Of supporting these gen.

Court UphoIds
Case

ANNAPOLIS, June Is (R.-
The Court Of Appeals yesterday
refused to overthrow a bookmak-
ling conviction on grounds that
evidence was obtained by unlaw-
full overlapping.
The high. court affirmed q
Baltimore County Circuit Court
decision under which Charles w
Manager and Morris Schwartz
were fined 81 900 each and sem
fenced to one year In the House
|of Correction.
Manager and Schwartz con-
tended that overlapping led
police to the home in Pikesville
where they were arrested. A 1856
law requires a court order to tap
wires to obtain evidence.
The State admitted wires were
tapped but said only the book
making equipment seized at the
scene was admitted into evidence.
Attorneys for Manger and
Schwartz argued that the 1856
law not only bars admission Of
a conversation overheard I'M
lawfully but also any evidence
obtained as a result of such q
wire tap.
But the high court said its in
depreciation. Of the 1856 wire tap
law Is that II would not bar the
introduction Of the fruits Of an
intercepted conversation against
one who was not a participant
in the conversation"
Maryland has long applied
the common law rule that evil
dence is admissible against one
accused Of crime even
though 1t was obtained unlaw-
fully" the opinion said.
