TWO PRISONERS
MAY STAY IN u. S.

MIAMI, Fla, July 20 (AP)-
Invasion prisoners paroled by
Fidel Castro may be two men
short when they return to
Cuba. But they don't expect to
go back empty-handed from
their quest for tractor purchase
funds to ransom fellow cap
tives.
Two prisoners, Reynaldo Pico
and Milton COLLAGE, were quoted
by another as saying they may
not return to Cuba with the
other eight who planned to
leave Monday.
No reason was given by Mr..
Pico and Mr., Collazo for pos
sibly remaining behind, said
prisoner Luis Morse. The two
men themselves could not be
reached for comment.
Mr.. Morse said he did not
think Castro would deal harsh
ly with the prisoners who OBJ
served their parole by returning
to captivity in Cuba.
Mr.. Morse disclosed that he
received a check for $4,000
from Arturo Torano, president
of a Tampa Cuban Tractors for
Freedom Committee.
A similar committee of Gu
bans has been attempting to
raise tractor purchase funds at
Miami.

Mr.. Reilly, however, said he

Mr.. Reilly, who receives a

during his service with the
Army Engineers during World
War I, salvaged some of the
lumber from his house and
would like to rebuild about so
yards farther up the hillside,
which would command a view
of passing beltway traffic.
But he says he has no saw
ings to use for building a new
house, no occupation, and no
place to stay except the great
outdoors while waiting for
something to happen. He said
he has looked unsuccessfully
everywhere" for a place to
stay since bulldozers WedneS-

The idea of swapping tractors
for Cuban invasion prisoners

a small scale.
L. B. Maloney, jr., an Inter

in Silver Spring, Md, said yes

$4,000 sale of five farm trac-
tors to two Cubans identified as
Jose Manuel Reboso, 81, and
Felipe de Diego. 33.
They said they we're survivors
of the unsuccessful April inva-
sion of Cuba.
Mr.. Maloney said the two
told him they hope to ship the
tractors to Havana to obtain
the release of some of the sick
or injured among the 1900
rebels who were captured by
the Cuban defenders.

Lee Asked
To Drop
Senate Goal
Would Clear Way
For Brewster
To Be Cundidute
BY JAMES B. ROWLAND
Star Staff Writer


Delegate Blair Lee III, of
Montgomery County, has been
asked to switch his immediate
political goal from the United
States Senate to Congressman
at-large on a ticket headed by
Gov. TaweS.
The Senate candidacy then
would fall to Representative
Brewster. of Baltimore County,
who repeatedly has accepted
State Democratic support in a
bid for the Senate seat now
held by Senator Butler, a Re-
publican.
Official announcement by
Gov Tawes for a second term,
and Representative Brewster
for the Senate are expected be-
fore the end of the summer.
Reported Considering
Mr.. Lee today would say only
that his present concern is for
the Senate, for which he an
nounced his candidacy last
month. But he is understood to
be considering the changeover
to the lower House as request
ed by State Democratic leaders.
The Congressman : at large
seat was created last month
when petitions were filed chal-
lenging the Prince Georges
Howard Counties Congressional
District formed earlier this year
by the Maryland General As
Sembly. The petitions forced
the matter to a referendum on
the 1862 ballot, and created a
Congressman-at-large seat.
Mr.. Brewster's reported ac-
ceptance of support from Tawes
forces plus a change of plans
by Mr.. Lee would scuttle a new
era" ticket mapped out earlier
by Democrats seeking new
spirit and leadership in their
party.
Lineup Was Different
The new era" ticket was to
have Mr.. Brewster running for
Governor, Mr.. Lee for the Sen
ate, State Senator Harry R.
Hughes, of Caroline County for
Attorney General, and James j.
Lacy, president of the Balti-
more Fire Board, for Controller.
Mr.. Lee has never been a
close ally of Gov. Tawes, since
the Montgomery County dele
gate had differed on several
occasions with administration
bills in the Maryland Assembly.
In some cases opposition spear
headed by Mr.. Lee has lead to
the death of a Tawes-backed
bill.
If Mr.. Lee should decide not
TO JOIN raves forces, ne would
be left to choose between David
Hume, a party maverick who
has already announced his gu
bernatorial candidacy, and
probably George P. Mahoney,
of Baltimore, who is expected to
make another try for the gov
ernorship.
BY running for the at-large
seat, Mr.. Lee would have a
chance to test his vote-getting
appeal on a statewide basis
in preparation for a Senate
candidacy in 1864 when the
stein, Controller, and Thomas
B. Finan, attorney general.
Rounding out the Tawes-
Brewster ticket are expected to
be incumbentS Louis B. Gold
stein andThomas B. Finan, at
torney general.
