bates.
As two Of four political
playwrights and authors who
spoke yesterday ct q Women's
National Press Club lunch
con, the pair - authors Of

playing ct Arena Stage
agreed that the debates
have fiopped dramatically.
Mr.. Lawrence began by
saying he was concerned mot
so much with politics in
drama as the drama Of poll
tics, and ] wish they would
dramatic things more"

The historic television en-
counters Of Kennedy and

Mr.. Lawrence added, I'D
prefer Robert Sherwood in
my corner than Max Factor.
The word is more important
than the pancake"
Later Mr.. Lee said the
Quemoy-Matsu issue was es-
sentially dramatic, as were
other issues in the campaign.
but we could have written
q much better scene" (He
grinned.) There's plenty Of
material there. he explained.
''hut how you project 1t is
what counts" In his opinion
the debates have lacked
form, the almost sacred"
form essential to drama.
Asked which political party
they think is the more
dramatic. Mr.. Lawrence re-
piled. with something like Q
partisan wink, There u
much more drama In progress
than in stasis."
But Mr.. Lee added. Both
parties are divided into
progress and stasis groups.
This division within them is
healthy in that 1t is dra-
matte. and I would like to
see It brought up more"
The two other political
writer's on the program were

Parties Divide
On Referenda
In MARYLAND

The Democratic organization
in Prince Georges County /:
urging its members to vote fol-
g Of the is State referendum
questions on the ballot next
Tuesday. Republican leaders
indorse eight and oppose four.
The Democrats have not rec
commended any reflections.
Among those opposed by the
COP. is the constitutional
amendment, providing for q
Maryland Virginia compact on
the Potomac River. The pro-
posal for Joint regulation and
control Of the river has been
vigorously fought by the
party's 5th district candidate
for Congress, Carlyle j. Lam
caster.
Both parties in Prince
Georges plan to hand out sam
pie ballots at the polls stating
their respective views on the
10 proposed constitutional
amendments.
Both parties favor the fol-
lowing:
Creation OF a municipal
court in Baltimore, a change
In the procedure for electing
Peoples Court judges In Balti-
more, and revision Of rules
concerning succession to the
office Of Governor.
The two parties, along with
the Chamber Of Commerce
board Of directors, favor
amendments adding two judges
to the Prince Georges Circuit
Court, increasing the court of
appeals from five to seven
judges and permitting the leg
islature to provide that land
actively devoted to farm or
agricultural use shall be as
sessed on the basis of such use
and not at subdivision rates.
Democrats also indorse the
amendment adding circuit court
judges in Montgomery County,
and in the second and fourth
circuits.

Tawes said that the people who
are criticizing the compact
"just don't understand it."
Opponents have charged that
the compact is a "giveaway" to
Virginia. They also claim that
the compact should include an
agreement for control Of fish,
ing in the Chesapeake Bay as
well as the Potomac River.
"The statement that this
compact Is a giveaway is just
untrue" Gov. Tawes said. "Vir-
ginia is getting nothing she
did not have already and is
agreeing to cooperate in po-
licing and conservation mat
ters."
Warns Of Dreaming"
Anyone who thinks we can
get a Potomac River and
Chesapeake. Bay agreement at
the same time are just dream
ing" Gov. Tawes added.
He maintained that rejec-
ton OF the Potomac River COM
pact, which is on the Novem-
ber 8 ballot, is likely to set
back chances Of reaching an
agreement on Chesapeake Bay.
Gov. Almond (of Virginia)
has told me he will appoint a
commission to study the lower
Chesapeake Bay" Gov. Tawes
said. But Gov. Tawes added
that rejection Of the Potomac
compact by Maryland voters
probably would kill chances of
reaching a Chesapeake Bay
agreement anytime soon.

BALTIMORE, Nov. ! (AP).-
The Department Of Education
says 1874 elementary school
children of Baltimore are at
tending classes on part-time
schedules this fall because Of q
shortage Of buildings.
The part-time students make
up about 13 per cent Of the
elementary school enrolment,
and they receive four hours in
struction daily instead of the
usual five.
Baltimore voters next week
will be asked to approve a $22

"He (Senator Kennedy
failed to vote IS per cent of
the time in the United States
Senate" Mr.. Matthias said.
Mr.. Foley said Mr.. Matthias
plan for private loans for COL
lege students had been studied
and scrapped as impractical.
"A stale. rejected idea." said
Mr.. Foley.
Mr.. Matthias argued that CT
loans had worked before and
reasoned that private educa-
tion loans could assist students
who soon will be pounding on
college gates.
Another Matthias proposal
Mr.. Foley said was stale" was
the idea Of tax deductions for
teachers who take graduate
work.
Mr.. Matthias said the present
law dealing with this needs
"clariflcation." He said teach
ers should have the same right
to deduct the cost of advanced
training as doctors, lawyers and
other professional people.
Pleads for Vote
Asking voters point blank to
"vote for me" Mr.. Foley pointed
out that IL of the bills he
sponsored became law. includ-
ing one authorizing the WASH
ington M etropolitan n Area
Transit Commission and an
other preserving the Antietam
Battlefield. .
He said he fought and
fought hard" for Capper-Cram-
ton funds, which the House.
turned down, and plans a
renewed effort to obtain crea-
tion of a Gao Canal park.
Mr.. Matthias, equally direct in
his plea for ballot-box support,
said he proposes Western Mary
land economic development and
natural stimulation of business
through tax reforms rather
than pump-priming."
The Republican candidate
said he favors loans, rather
than grants. for undeveloped
countries and firm and con-
sistent defense policy" rather
than over-appropriation in of
years and budget cuts in elec-
ton years.
