To Miller Draft
Maryland Leaders
Reported in Accord

Maryland's Republican lead
ers last night were reported
about to draft Representative
Edward 7. Miller as their
candidate for Governor in
1885,
Top-level @. o. p. sources
report that leaders Of both the
liberal and old-line factions
have gotten together on the
popular Eastern Shore repre-
sentative to seek the once the
Republicans have held for the
last eight years.
James P. s. Devereux. Repre-
sentative Of the End District
who has long been considered
as a leading contender for the
Republican gubernatorial NOM
nation, however. could upset
the agreement.
Devereux Has Support
The old-line faction led by
Senator Butler and Jacob
France. former Republican Ma
tional Committeeman, probably
would support Mr.. Devereux II
he decides to seek the nominal
ton.
Mr.. Miller long has been con-
sidered a middle-of-the- roadeT
and as such repeatedly can
have the backing Of both the
Butler-France faction and the
liberal group headed by Gov.
McKeldin.
One source reported that the
@. O.P. feels Mr.. Devereux
would be hard to replace as q
candidate for the I'd District
congressional seat.
Adkins Favored
II Mr.. Miller Is the guberna-
torial candidate, it is reported
the likely candidate for the
Shores congressional seat would
be E. Dale Adkins, former Cir
cult Court Judge, Of Wicomicc
County.
When asked about the re-
ported agreement, Mr.. Miller
said:
II am for Jim (Mr. Deve-
reux) II he wants to run. II
he does not run and the big
brass wants me then I will be
q candidate"
The agreement which has
been reported by several lead
ers Of the two major factions
would mean that the Republic
cans again would be tying
their nomination up in q neat
package while the Democrats
appear headed for another
rough-and-tumble primary that
has plagued the party for the
last decade.
Representative Miller is serv-
ing his sixth term in Congress.
He Is a lawyer IN Easton In
Talbot County. He is 81.

UAWUrgesCui
In Car Prices as
Initiation Curb
Offers to Modify
Its New Contract
Demands in 1858

DETROIT. Aug. II CH-The
United Auto Workers Union
has proposed to the Big Three
Of the automobile industry that
they cut prices on 1858 models
by an average Of at least 500
per car and in return the JAW
will modify its new contract
demands next year in q joint
move to combat imitation.
Walter p. Reuther, president
Of the JAW. disclosed the pro-
posal today in making public
letters sent yesterday to Gem
eral Motors Corp. Ford Motor
Co. and Chrysler Corp.
There was no immediate COM
ment from the,auto firms.
Mr.. Reuther said the pro-
posal was based on the unan-
imous action Of the JAW In
ternational Executive Board.
He said he was suggesting -
positive and practical proposal
for making an effective Begin
ming in stopping and reversing
the infiationary trend" He
noted that President Eisen-
hover has asked management
and labor to exercise restraint
in price and wage policies.
1858 Models Would Be Cut
Mr.. Reuther's proposal would
mean cuts in the price tags Of
1858 models upon their intro
duction this fall. He proposed
an impartial review panel to-
pass on the question If it de-
veloped during negotiations
that the companies felt that
all or part Of the price reduce
ton should be restored to meet
union demands. The proposed
three-member panel would take
testimony at public hearings.
Declaring that neither cor
poration profits nor union "as-
pirationS" were paramount, Mr.
Reuther told presidents Of the
Big Three:
"Transcending both by far
are the interests Of the Amer
lean people as q whole In q
stable price level. For that rea-
son, we are confident our meme
bers win be willing to take the
consequences In collective bar
gaining II the price reductions
We propose make it impossible
to meet all Of their Just de-
mands and stiIl maintain 81
reasonable rate Of profit"
Mr.. Reuther added. in other
words. we are not asking you
to take any risk that we are
not prepared to share"
Contracts Rnn Out in Spring
The JAWS contracts with
the Big Three run out next
spring around June /.
The union has announced
that its top goal in new contract
negotiations win be a shorter
work week and a substantial in
crease in take home pay.
Earlier this year Mr.. Reuther
proposed to the heads Of the
auto companies that they get
together with the union in sep
arate management-union talks
to explore the idea Of a shorter
work week before the start Of
bargaining sessions. The COM
panies turned down the pro-
posal.
Reminding the companies
that the union is now getting
ready for 1858 contract negotia-
tons. Mr.. Reuther said:
This coming January, 5000
delegates representing our local
unions throughout the United
States and Canada. viii meet

9 Billion
Seen as Top
Figure on Aid
Strong Opposition
Expected to Pleas
To Restore Cuts
By ROBERT X. WALSH

I
A mutual security funds bill
providing between $2.e and $40
billion in new money is the
oest the Eisenhower administra-
ton can realistically expect be-
fore Congress adjourns. several
Senate and House members
said yesterday.
The administration hopes for
at least $3.3 billion and is send
ling three top-level officials to
present its case to the Senate
Appropriations Committee to-
morrow.
Secretary Of State Dulles,
Admiral Arthur w. Radford. re-
firing chairman Of the Joint
Chiefs Of STAFF, and John B.
HOLSTER, retiring as Interna-
ton Cooperation Administra-
ton director, will ask the Sem
ate group to restore most Of the
5000 million cut by the House
last week.
Strong Opposition Seen
But their pleas and argu-
ments will encounter strong OPP
position and close questioning.
The committee is expected to
recommend more than the S2.5
billion Of new money appropri-
|ated in the House bill passed
last week for military and eco
|nomic assistance to friendly
foreign countries.
Public as well as private COM
ments by various Senators,
however. indicated the commit
tee would not favor even as
much as So billion. This led to
predictions that an eventual
House-Senate conference would
agree on considerably less.
A group Of Southern Sena-
tors. repeatedly headed by Sem
ator Russell Of Georgia. second
ranking Democrat on the APP
preparations Committee, plan
to support most Of the House
cuts. Senator Ellender, DEM
ocrat Of louisiana. q commit
tee member. made clear in e.
weekend letter to his constitu-
ents that he believes the House
did a good job. He promised
Ito continue my fight to bring
some degree Of realism into our
foreign aid program"
Tough Fight Predicted
A committee member from q
Northern State said he doubted
that the new money figure
would exceed $2.9 billion. al
though he said he personally
would advocate about $3.l bill
lion at the committee session.
Another member said he
would join q special effort to-
restore most Of the $3.50 million
which the House cut from the
military assistance item. He
said there might be some way
Of reducing less essential items
to a corresponding degree.
Senator Mansfield, Demo-
crat Of Montana. a member
Of the Foreign Affairs Commit
tee which several weeks ago
recommended a $50 billion CELL
ing on foreign aid appropria-
tons for the present fiscal year.

District Prison
Rate IopsU.S.
Rctio Here Twice
National Average
By MIRIAM OTTENBERG

The District jammed its pris-
on with more adults In proper
ton to population than any
State in the country, the Fed
eral Bureau Of Prisons reported
last night.
At years end, its proportion
was more than twice as high
as the national average.
The dubious distinction Of
leading the Nation in rate Of
prison population came at q
time when the adult prisoners
in State and Federal instituI
tons throughout the United
States hit an all-time high.
Per Cent Increase
A total Of 1SS.730 prisoners
were confined in State and
Federal prisons on December
81, 1856. This was an overall
2 per cent increase over the
year.
The Federal Bureau Of Pris-
ons said, however, that the pro-
portion Of prisoners to popula-
ton did not 60 up. Like the two
previous years. there were about
ia persons per 100000 civilian
population serving sentences In
State and Federal prisons at
years end.
For state prisons alone, there
we're 102 adult prisoners per
100000 population.
That's where the District
stood out like a sore thumb.
