Votes for Charter Rule

for a charter board which will
draft a newly proposed govern
mental structure.
Before the vote last night,
discussion was punctuated with
cries of "railroading" and
charges that freedom of speech
was being denied.
In spite of outbursts from
among $50 persons assembled
in the Hyattsville Elementary
School, Walter F. Mulligan, 81
year-old federation president,
remained stern and calm as he
ordered nondelegates to sit
down and be quiet, ruled on
voice votes, and decided whom
to recognize from the floor.
The two recommendations in
the Project Marlboro are con-
sidered its backbone and were
moved to a vote by Walter H.
Maloney, president of the
Eighth Precinct Club of Chill
lum. His motion was seconded
by James F. Vance. an author
of Project Marlboro.
A voice vote grew into a
believing contest, and gave
way to the standing vote. Bal
lots then were taken for count
ing later. Mr.. Mulligan said
they will serve merely as a

The Democratic candidates
are Representative Brewster of

Mr.. Lee said Senator Buffers

gates to the federation.
This brought a sharp retort
from Graham Lewis of Upper
Marlboro, who charged the
procedure was done in "a con-
trolled manner"
MI. Lewis, a director of the
Prince Georges Volunteer Fire
mans Association but speaking
only as an individual, said the
vote represented only the views
Of a few. The federation is COM
posed Of nearly 80 civic associa-
tions. each with five voting
delegates.
Through the volunteer fire

declared.

Mulligan. a charter supporter.
Supporting his resolution, Mr..
Malcney said charter govern
ment would permit passage of
many local public laws in the
county council instead of by
the Legislature.

but still only a voice."
DIR. Eisenhower Mentioned
A number of Maryland Re-
publicans have expressed the
hope that DR.. Milton S. Eisen-
hover, president of Johns Hop
kins University and brother of
the former President, could be
induced to run for the Senate.
DR.. Eisenhower's office, how
ever, said yesterday that he
would not consider running un-
der any circumstances - that

estS lie in education.
Rogers Morton of Easton,
brother of former Republican
National Chairman Thruston b.
Morton, Senator from Ken
lucky. and Representative
Matthias, Republican of Mary
land, also have figured in spec
ulation.
Mr.. Morton said yesterday,
just before his departure for
Texas. he had not considered
running for the Senate and Mr..
Matthias declined comment.
Another possibility mentioned
was former Representative Ed
ward Miller of the lSt district.

Death Sentence
COMMITTED for
Martin Brother

RICHMOND. Dec. 8 CAP).-
The death sentence of a Fair
fax County man convicted for
the murder of an elderly Spot
sylvania County man last year
was commuted to life imprison-
ment yesterday by Gov. Almond
Ralph C. Martin, 33, was sen-
fenced to die for the murder OF
Ben T. Hall, 85, on October IL,
1860. His execution date was
January IL, 1862.
His brother, Lewis Martin,
35, also of Fairfax, was SEN
fenced to life Imprisonment in
the Staying and given an addi-
tional so years for robbery.
In committing the sentence
Gov. Almond noted that Lewis
was perhaps more guilty of the
crime than his brother because
he planned the robbery, per-
suaded his brother to join him
and initiated the physical
violence.
The actual death blows were
dealt by Ralph with a blunt in
strument.
The brothers were sentenced
in Spotsylvania County Circuit
Court after separate trials ear
lier this year.

BALTIMORE. Dec. 8 (AP).-
The Maryland Republican
party lost a stalwart candidate
in John Marshall Butler, who
in a surprise move decided not
to seek reelection next year
to the Senate.
At the same time, it gained
hope for a strong candidate
for Governor in Theodore R.
McKeldin.
In the first reaction to Sen
ator Buffers withdrawal, spec
ulators thought of Mr.. Nc
Keldin, a former two-term
Governor, as a potential re-
placement.
NO" said McKeldin without
hesitation.
IF the time is right and
there is a demand for me, I
would run for Governor" he
said.
The withdrawal of the Ga
year-old Senator Butler from
the Maryland political scene
apparently ends a meteoric
career.
First Ran in 1850
He ran for office for the first
time in 1850 and defeated the
late Millard E. Tydings, a
Democratic Senator for "a
years.
The late and controversial
Wisconsin Senator, Joseph Nc
Carthy, actively participated in
Buffers campaign. A COM
posite photograph linking Tyd-
ings with Earl Browder, former
Communist leader. figured
prominently in the campaign.
Senator Tydings had been
nominated to oppose Senator
Butler again in 1856 but he had
to withdraw because of illness.
George P. Mahoney was named
instead and lost 472,059 to
419,108.

Candidacy
Action Voted
By Teachers

Opposition to a controversial
resolution encouraging the po-
litical candidacy of a Kensing-
ton teacher was defeated yes
terday by the Delegate Assem-
bly, of the Montgomery County
Education Association.
The resolution, adopted a.
month ago, urged the teacher,
Richard P. Abel, to present
himself" to the public as a can
didate for the Maryland House
of Delegates next year. Mr..
Abel announced his candidacy
last month.
Changes Defeated
: At yesterdays meeting, the
delegates reaffirmed the orig
inal resolution by defeating
motions to change it or to re-
scind it.
, Arthur D. Simonds, jr., execu-
tive secretary of the associa-
ton, said today that the action
was taken before a packed
house" He said the action came
amid a swirl of parliamentary
motions, amendments and'reso-
lutions.
When the original resolution
was adopted last month,
group of Rockville teachers at
tackled it as a violation of the
associations constitution, which
