Maryland Democrats engineered
their biggest landslide in eighteen
years Tuesday but failed to bury
Republican Senator j. Glenn Beall
AS Democratic candidates swept
the governorship for the first time
since 1850 and all seven House
seats for the first time since 1910,
Beall won reelection by dealing
Democrat Thomas D'Alesandro his
first defeat in "a political contests.
Tawes, state comptroller who had
spent most of his ga years in the
political shadows, emerged as the
new governor by defeating James P.
DevereuX. The Republicans also
suffered startling reverses in the
General Assembly. The Democrats
upped their margin from 21-8 to
1858 in the State Senate and from
1926 to 1867 in the House of Dele
gates.
They also gave Louis l.. Goldstein
a big margin over Republican John
A. Derr for State comptroller and

Snow Fences Being
Erected in County

Crews of the State Roads Com
mission and the County Roads de-
partment have been at work the
past two weeks or more erecting
snow fences.
All of the snow-fighting equip
ment used to keep highways open
this winter will be ready for action
by the middle of the month.
Erecting the snow fences is a
major task. The State Roads crews
are erecting 283,O25 feet of snow
fences to help keep 158 miles of
highway open to traffic. The Coun-
ty Roads department is erecting
some 40 or so miles of snow fence
in an effort to keep its $50 miles
of county roads open.
Salt and cinders, major weapons
against ice and snow are stored at
strategic points along the high
ways or in warehouses. G. Bates
Charles, district engineer, said
the State Roads commission would
use a lot of salt and calcium chlor-
ide again this year.
Last year the SRC used 842 tons
of salt to keep Garrett County
roads open. Some $500 cubic yards
of sand and cinders we're used
chiefly on steep portions of the
highways.

Farm Bureau Calls
For Economy Trend

Directors and several interested
members of the Garrett County
Farm Bureau took a stand for
economy in government last Wed
nesday evening by passing a resolu-
ton that will be presented to the

reasonable measure of economy be
employed by our national govern
