Tawes Asks Inquiry
On Storm Insurance

ANNAPOLIS, Apr. 2 (AP).-
Gov. Tawes has asked the State
insurance commissioner to
make a full scale inquiry
into the reported refusal of in
surance companies to reim-
burSe property owners for
damage in the recent coastal
storm.
Il have been told that the
companies take the position
that the damage was caused by
water. a hazard not covered
under the usual policies, rath-
er than by wind which is nor
mally insured against" Gov.
TaweS said in a letter to Com
missioner F. Douglass Sears.
Il flew over the disaster area
just after the storm and saw
this unprecedented devastation
with my own eyes. 1t is quite
apparent that the great de-
struction of the beachfront
properties was caused by waves
propelled by high winds break
ing over them or undermining
their foundations.
II have received reports that
the winds approached hurri-
cane force, up TO 60 or 10 miles
per hour, and in some places
winds of this force must have
caused damage to stores, dwell
ings, apartments and other
property.
Therefore, I am requesting
you to investigate this matter
at the earliest possible moment.
Our people want to know
whether their insurance COM
panies will accept all or part
of this loss on behalf of their
policy holders"
Gov. TaweS said that while
the probe is being made by the
insurance commissioner, whose
office licenses and superviSes
companies operating in Mary
land, it would be we'll for beach
property owners to file their
claims promptly. otherwise,
they may find themselves
barred by Limitations clauses
in their policies" he said.

Maryland campaign.
The challenger's main theme
has been the savings and loan
scandals. He also has hit hard
at George Hooker, Maryland
beer-industry lobbyist, who Mr.
| Mahoney calls Maryland's "sec-
ond governor.
Hits MahOney's Tactics
Gov. Tawes said early in the
campaign that he had planned
to ignore Mr.. Mahoney. but the
Mahoney charges apparently
have shaken some Of the con-
fidence of the Tawes camp and
have goaded them into counter
charges.
The Tawes ticket hammers
heavily at Mr.. Mahoney'S "tac-
tics" which they claim have so
divided the Democrats in past
primaries that Republicans won
in the general elections. Mr..
Mahoney has run unsuccess-
fully four times for Statewide
offices.
Saturday, the TaweS forces
opened up in earnest on the
challenger with a statement
asking Mr.. Mahoney to explain
his role in a so-called paving
ring" in Baltimore. This re-
ferred to allegations that Mr.
Mahoney's paving firm and si'
others have monopolized tht
city paving business in Balti.

Tawes Leads Rural Areas
Although members of both
tickets have been making in
dividual forays into Baltimore,
they are waiting until closer to
the end of the campaign for in
tensive drives for the port city's
~ unit votes.
At this point, Mr.. Mahoney
appears to be in good shape in
Baltimore. while Gov. Tawes
seems far ahead in the coun-
ties, particularly the rural ones.
The rural counties have SO
unit votes while Baltimore and
the four suburban counties
have a total Of 66. A majority is
76 unit votes. but with more
than two candidates in the race
the candidate receiving the
greatest number is the winner.
