Opposition, however, came
from both Democrats and Re-
publicanS in Prince Georges,
which is slated to combine with
Howard in formation of the
new district.
Strongest support of the
drive, aimed at referring the
matter to a Statewide vote,
was developing in Montgomery
County where two party Of
ficialS yesterday added their
weight to the campaign.
Mrs. Margaret Carpenter and
Ray v. Murphy, members of
the Democratic State Central
Committee, said they would
ask the seven-man committee
for precinct-level participation
in the drive for 10000 sigma
lures.
The group is scheduled to
take action Thursday in Rock
vile.
There are more than 900, 900
people in the 9Th district
(Which includes Montgomery
who are not adequately rep
resented in Congress-" Mr..
Murphy said.
County Republican Chairman
Gilbert Guide and Democrat
Blair Lee III, chairman of the
county legislation delegation,
pledged similar support earlier
in the week.
Chairman of Democratic and
Republican State Central Com
mittees in Howard County yes

lost their fight in the Legisla-
ture to avoid being placed in
the new District with Prince
Georges.
William B. Dorsey. Demo-
cratic chairman, and Howard
E. Crist. jr., Republican chair
man, said Howard County
should not be linked to Prince
Georges.
Mr.. Dorsey said he would like
to see Howard put back in the
Fifth district, which now COM
prises Anne Arundel, Calvert,
Charles, and st. Mary's coun-
ties. He said that while he per-
sonally would be willing to work
for the Montgomery movement,
his committee has not acted.
Mr.. Crist said he has in
formed Montgomery leaders of
his committees willingness to
work for the petitions.
"All the Republicans here
and two-thirds of the Dem
ocratS would vote for the refer
endum." Mr.. Crist predicted.
His own rediStricting idea is
to tie Howard with Anne Arun-

Democratic State Central Com
mittee, said there is nothing his
group can do to try to block
the petitions. But if propon-
entS succeed his committee will
be obligated to campaign
against the referendum" he
added.
He said that if the petitions
are successful, the resulting
CongreSSman-at-large will not
solve redistricting but merely
give Baltimore City another
seat in the House of Repre-
sentatives.
Any congressional candi-
date who has to run on a
Statewide basis is going to be
elected by the area with the
most votes. Mr.. Sothoron said,
Mrs. Laura Mulrooney,
chairman Of the Prince

mittee said earlier she sup
ported the new Eighth District.
Herbert w. Reichelt, vice
chairman Of the Prince Georges
County Commissioners and a
leading contender for the DEM
ocratic congressional nomina-
ton, said he would have to
think twice about running if
redistricting also is on the bal
lot in 1862.
Among the deciding factors,
he said, would be the financing
of a Statewide campaign and
the edge the Baltimore bloc
would have on the election.
Mrs. Bess B. Lavine, chair
man of the Prince Georges
Chapter of the Committee for
Fair Representation, said she
personally felt the 9th district
is fair, but that the rest of the
