Whether the current charter
drive in Prince Georges County
wins a sazable block of support
hinges on a meeting scheduled
for Thursday by the League of
Women Voters
The Prince Georges chapter
Of the league has set its meet
ing for 8:15 pm. in the North
western High School cafeteria.
Representatives from SIS civic,
service, religious and municipal
groups have been invited to
express their views on senti-
ment toward charter.
The league has dorSe d
charter government in princi-
Iple. The women, however, did
not go so far as to vote approval
of the Project Marlboro Re-
port, compiled by a committee
of the Prince Georges Civic
Federation.
In addition to urging charter
government, Project Marlboro
advocates an electe d county
executive and council, plus a
hired administrator.
Left to Board
The league feels the structure
of any new charter government
should be left to the discretion
of the charter board, to be
elected in the November gener-
al election if the charter refer
endum goes on the ballot. The
10000 signatures that will put

all local ticket candidates They
said discussions with candi-
dates proved there were few
basic differences between them,
although several Of them had
been on opposing ends of the

The platform itself is a mix

top men of the ticket, and a
detailed set of aims for candi-
dates running in Montgomery
Montgomery Platform
In the latter category, the
platform pledges the candidates
to work for the following:
l. In education: "A contin-
ued high level of financial sup

pansion Of the county's junior
college program and support
of quality education pro-
grams" including special
classes for gifted children.
The platform gave notice to
some criticism of school costs
in the county and suggested a
new formula Of State aid to
local schools. The ticket sug-
gested that State school money
should be shared with the
counties in proportion to the
amount these counties collected
for their own school needs.

Organization Democrats in
Prince Georges County, cam
paigning to retain control of
local offices, last night fired
their first salvo at the indie
pendent faction.
John j. McBurney, candidate
for the House of Delegates, at
tackled independent charges
that the organization is ruled
by bosses, tainted with conflicts
of interest, and has been lax
in attracting research indus
tries to the county.
Mr.. McBurney, speaking to
the Riggs Democratic Club,
charged that each of the indie
pendent candidates was hand
picked by either the insurgent
chairman, William Stanley, jr.,
or W. Earl Griffin, a leader of
the faction.
Other Course Cited
Organization candidates, on
the other hand. were selected
by the local State Central Com
mittee after consultation with
the County Council of Demo-
cratic Clubs representing more
than so Democratic clubs in
Prince Georges, he said.
Referring to an independent
charge that the committee
chairman, L. Harold Sothoron,
lobbied in the 1861 Maryland
General Assembly for a natural
gas storage bill, Mr.. McBurney
stated that Mr.. Griffin also
was an active lobbyist for the
county liquor store dealers.
Mr.. McBurney said that if
Mr.. Sothoron did pressure

From Seclusion
To Play Baseball

HAVANA, Feb. 26 (AP). -
Looking healthy and happy,
Fidel Castro emerged from IL
days of silence and seclusion
yesterday for a baseball and
television appearance.
The Cuban Prime Minister
lined out two hits-one with
two strikes against him-after
making an unannounced ap-
pearance at a double-header in
Latino Americana" stadium.
The crowd of $4,000 cheered
and the nation's television audi
ence watched as Mr.. Castro
accepted the challenge Of two
pitchers to strike him out.
Mr.. Castro drove a grounder
through shortstop with the
count at two balls and two
strikes, then nit a single into
centerfield off the second
pitcher after taking one strike
Castro's disappearance from
the public eye set a variety OF
rumorS to flying. One was that
he had gone to Moscow, an
other that he had taken asylum
in the Mexican Embassy.
The Communist party News
paper Hoy published yesterda!
a long communique over MI
Castro's name charging tn
United States was plotting al
invasion and thanking the So
Wet Union for pledging supper

DAYID LAWKENIE
The Kennedy Conflict of Interest

mentor and political man
ager in the four years before
j. F. X. was elected Presi-
dent. He knew how to line
up delegations for the con-
vention. He mastermined the
strategy of the whole presi-
dential-election campaign.
The President himself hap
pens to have been raised in
the school of practical pol
itics where a service like this
doesn't go unrewarded.
A related question is: What
is a Presidents brother to do
if he has political ambitions?
Shall he take himself COM
pletely out of the Democratic
administration that is in
power and wait a few years
til after his brother Is out of
the White House before en-
barking on a political career
on his own?
The question answers it
self. Bobby Kennedy is right
from his own standpoint to
take advantage of every OPP
portunity to become nation
ally and internationally
known.
But the President himself
hasn't such an easy out. He
must face the judgment of
the American people some
day as to whether it was
right to pick as an unofficial
envoy at a critical time in
history a younger brother
who had no previous expert
ence or special qualifications
for the ambassadors role he
now adopts.
1t is being asked on Capitol
Hill why the Vice President
of the United States, Lyndon
johnson, wasn't given the
assignment, since the coun-
try had already witnessed
his successful missions
abroad in the IS months
that the present administra-
ton has been in office.
Was it in the public in
terest not to take advantage
of an opportunity to train
a Vice President for possible
emergencies, or was it more
important to reward his
brothers political service and
aid him in his ambition for
higher office? That's the
conflict of interest" which
President Kennedy faced in
this unprecedented case.

Voice of America Marks Birthdo,

At least, Mr.. Minow said, it
might be available to educa-
tional television.
These roses were CRATE
fully received but cautiously
fielded by old hands who
had felt the thorns of past
encounters in the political
propaganda field.
Congress has never wanted
USIA, including the Voice, to
propaganda Americans; in
deed, it forbids it with some
few exceptions. 1t is ma
tural that Congress should.
whatever it's political COM
plexion, be wary of executive
activity of this kind. Much
past criticism, incidentally,
was less along party lines
than a matter of theological
division.
The trade unions also have
done their part to keep USIA
and the Voice strictly for ex-
port. They protest it would
put their members in compe-
tition with too much free
talent.
VOA officials point out
that British officials do not
criticize the overseas doingS
Of the British Broadcasting
Company but accept it, warts
and all, as a patriotic opera
ton, loyal to king and
country. They recognize that
total restraint would be a lot
to ask here.
Meanwhile they are plenty
busy under Director Henry
LOOMS, broadcasting in SO
languages a total of TIC
hours a week. Using 81
transmitters here and abroad,
the Voice speaks with power
equal in strength to that of
more than 200 top CONNER
cial stations, and more pro-
jects are on the way. The
new wattage will improve the
VOA signal in Latin America,
Africa, Russia and the Near
East.

DAVID LAWRENCE

A curious kind of conflict
of interest" arises in the
cases of Bobby and Ted Ken
nedy as they tour the world
with the aura of their
brothers presidency sur
rounding them wherever they
go. Two questions are being
asked: Are they trading on
the position and prestige of
a distinguished relative?
Should they be disqualified
from doing what comes ma
turally in their respective
careers just because they
happen to have a brother
who Is President of the United
States?
There is only one instance
In which a close relative of
a President has later become
the chief executive. John
Adams, the second President,
had been out of office "a
years and was 80 years old
when his son. John Quincy
Adams, was elected the sixth
President. But this doesn't
mean that relatives of sew
eral other Presidents haven't
tried for the presidency-as,
for instance, the sons of
Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin
D. Roosevelt, and William
Howard Taft.
1t was not until 80 years
after Mr.. Taft became Presi-
dent that his son, Robert A.
Taft, was elected United
States Senator and began his
unsuccessful drive for the
Republican presidential nom
ination.
The controversy over the
Kennedys differs somewhat
from any similar question
raised heretofore. No Presi-
dent has ever given his
brother a post in the cabinet
and then sent him abroad
in the role of unofficial en-
voy or good will" ambassa-
dor.

OF President Eisenhower, was
designated as a special envoy

about which he had excep-
tional knowledge, but he VOL
