Both Steers,
SickIes Back
Ban on Slots

Maryland's candidates for
Representative at large agree
that slot machines should be
banned from the State.
Democrat Carlton r. Sickles,
at q tapping Of the teleVision
program City Side, said there
are widespread reports Of 'in-
fluence Of racketeers and gang
sters" and that the operation
Of slots mars the image Of
the State"
Republican Newton I. Steers,
who follows Mr.. Sickles on the
program at noon today. said
he agreed that slots should be
abolished.
Mr.. Sickles. who commented
on gambling In greater detail
than his opponent, said Prince
Georges County also has a
problem Of illegal payoffs on
pinball machines" Slots and
pinball machines which pay off
in money are legal only in
Anne Arundel, Calvert, st.
Marys and Charles Counties.
Democratic Gov. Tawes has
announced he favors abolition
of slots.
Disagree On Cuba
Mr.. Sickles said he was not
opposed to horseracing in
Maryland which he said is
controlled by the State. He said
he is not opposed to gambling
as such and that "it is good
to have some gambling OUT
let"
The two candidates disagree
on whether President Kennedy
is taking the proper approach
to Cuba.
Mr.. Steers said he favors a
"stiffer attitude" toward the
communist buildup in Cuba.
''I feel we should try to avoid
war but I think we have car
ried it a bit too far" said Mr..
Steers. He said the Kennedy
administration has muffed op-
portunities to do something
about Cuba.
Mr.. Sickles said the respon-
sibility for dealing with Cuba
lies with the President and
that other people do not have
the information on the situa-
ton possessed by the President.
Criticizes Kennedy
Mr.. Steers called Mr.. Sickles
an extreme liberal" and de-
scribed himself as a middle
of-the-roader."
On civil rights, the Republi-
can candidate said he would
support any legislation on the
Federal level to eliminate racial
discrimination. He said he IA
vors a State law to eliminate
racial discrimination In hotels
and restaurants.
He criticized President Ken
nedy for not signing an order
eliminating racial discrimina-
tion in Federally financed
housing.
"The President said all II
would take Is the stroke Of the
Ipen. So far that stroke hasn't
occurred" Mr.. Steers said.

MEET mr. TAXPAYER
Hymon Pressmon, GodfIy
BALTTMoRE. Sent. q tAP6

BALTIMORE, Sept. 20 CAPS.
- When an angry politician
! told Attorney lyman Pressman
last month he was going to
sock him in the nose, Mr.. Press
man wasn't particularly sur
prised.
It wasn't too long ago that
an irate land anonymouS)
telephone caller threatened to
: blow Mr. Pressman into Balti-
more's inner harbor.
Most Baltimoreans don't feel
that way about Mr.. Pressman.
He often Is called Baltimore's
political watchdog or some
times 'Mr. Taxpayer"
The politician who said he
was going to punch Mr.. Press
mans nose was attending q
meeting Of a clique of the
Baltimore City Democratic
State Central Committee. The
committee was choosing some
one to run for city prosecutor,
or States attorney as it Is
called here, at the same hour
the winner Of the earlier Demo-
cratic nomination, who died of
a heart attack. was being
buried.
Mr.. PresSman objected to
more than the haste. His other
reasons became apparent later
when a grand Jury indicted two
members Of the committee on
charges Of perjury. The State
Attorney General said the two
had lost their right to vote be-
cause they we're convicted
criminals and so we're ineligible
to serve on the committee.
Instituted 50 Suits
Mr.. Pressman's suit chal-
lenging the committees nom
ination is still pending.
1t isn't the first time Mr..
Pressman has taken to court
someone he thinks has mis-
handled the public trust. One
Of his favorite weapons is q
taxpayers suit. He has used It
: more than so times.
! In 1856. for instance. when
city officials voted themselves
handsome pay raise, Mr..
Pressman went all the way to
the Maryland Court Of Appeals
to nullify what he called a pay
grab.
Then he filed another suit
and made the city officials
return $4,000 they had re-
ceived In increased pay.
He used the taxpayers suit |
to reverse the award of a road |
contract in adjacent Anne
Arundel County so that it went
instead to the lowest bidder. |
BattIed Corruption
One Of Mr.. Pressman's most
notable victories came 10 years
ago, when he challenged a
100000 city parking garage
contract. He said the builder
was initiating costs to use public
funds for operating expenses
during construction.
He accused also the parking
commissioner Of improperly
awarding another garage cen
tract to a relative. Finally,
Mayor Thomas D'Alesandro
ordered an investigation.
