Esteem Senator james

ANNAPOLIS. Jan. 20 tAP).
In Maryland there are times
when the name James" is
pronounced with a hiss at the
end.
The occasion usually is an
argument over teachers pay
programs before the Legisla-
ture.
In such emotion charged
discussions proponent of q
plan espoused by parent
teacher groups may refer to the
rival James Committee pro-
gram in tones likely to con-
jure up visions Of an ogre who
devours school children for
breakfast.
Senator william s. James,
Democrat Of Hartford. the
father Of the controversial pro-
gram, is neither Of these.
He is. 1t is widely acknowl-
edged, soft-spoken. modest. un-
assuming. pleasant and one Of
the most diligent workers In
the General Assembly.
HE is an honest, sincere
man." says Delegate Dale w.
Hess. Democrat of Hartford. He
and Mr.. James have not always
been political allies. HE prob
ably spends as much time at

any two other Senators"
Avoided Controversy
Mr.. James. 46. admits he
often prefers q law book to

resists the notion that his years
Of poring over State budgets
have made him an expert on
Maryland money matters.

The county and State will
split the $4,000 cost, providing
