Although tides remain higher
than normal and parts Of the
stricken area remain covered
with flood waters, the Weather
Bureau reports no further
storms in the region this week
end.
Winds along the coast were
from the northeast at 10 to
Is miles an hour. A low pres

the battered coastal resorts with
another storm today was re-

N. c., and moving out to sea.
No new disturbances were in
sight.
Some Power Restored
Some electric power was
finally restored in the town of
Chincoteague, at the center of
the island, last night and some
water was being brought in
from the mainland. Heat
what little there was-came
from kitchen stoves. Telephone
communication with the main-
land was restored late yester-
day.
Although 20 school buses
were on hand to ferry the is
landers across the damaged
cauSeway to WallopS Station,
the National AeronauticS and

inhabitants were reluctant to
leave.
One man, sitting in his

No Martial Law Plans
Officials, however, said there
are no plans to declare martial

rect the situation. He volun-
teered that the enlisted man
conducting the information
program since has received Sc
curity clearance.
Gen. Medaris, in his state
ment, said the experience of
American soldiers in Korea
bore out his contention that a
soldier must be educated Ito
the evils Of theology" before he
is drafted into service. A num-
Der of American fighting men
in Korea became "turncoats'
when captured by the Chinese
Communists.
The retired general Endorsed
review of speeches by military
leaders warning of the dangers
Of communism.
Unfortunately" he said, "the
banner of anti-communism in
this country is carried in the
main by extremist organiza-
tionS. For that reason, I believe
that national policy should be
clearly spelled out to military
commanders"
He said it was up to citizens
and their elected representa-
tives to see that official state
ments of opposition to COM
munism and all it's methods
are fortnight and effective. -
There can be no excuse, he
added, "for translation of ma
tional policy into personal
opinion by any government Of
ficial."
A military man, the general
said, must surrender some of
his rights to freedom of speech
so that what he says will con-
form to national policy. He
emphasized that complete free
dom of speech for one in the
military could weaken the ma
tons defense structure.
In addition to the Fort Bel
voir situation. Senator Thur
mond and Gen. Dodge and one
of Gen. Dodge's assistants,
tilted over whether the Army
had called in recorded tapes
by 1t. Col. William T. Mayer,
"a military doctor stationed in
Texas.
Order Acknowledged
Col. Mayer has made num-
erous speeches throughout the
country discussing Communist
brainwashing of American
troops captured in Korea.
The Army men acknowledged
that an order had gone out
to major commands requesting
that tapes recorded by Col.
Mayer be sent to the Pentagon.
But they insisted that they
merely wanted to know what
the doctor was saying and that
his tapes were still being used
in training programs.
Senator Thurmond was un-
able to develop who was &C
tually behind the order re-
queSting copies Of what the
colonel had said.
Col. Mayer will be a witness
later in the hearings.

some 5000 party faithful are
expected to assemble for a
three-fold purpose:
To raise money. 100000 OF
so, judging by advance sales;
to put on a show of party amity
in a State with increasing Re-
publican strength, and to
launch Senator Smathres on his
reelection campaign.
The dinner is a testimonial
to Senator Smathers, an old
friend Of Mr.. Kennedy's, who
is seeking his third term in the
Senate.
Meanwhile, the opulent re
sort city buzzed with talk of pos
sible demonstrations by Cuban
refugees.
Would Show Thanks
Leaders of the thousands of
anti-Castro refugees in the Mi
ami area have urged them to
put on a demonstration to show
their thanks for United States
assistance and sympathy.
But most sources last night
discounted reports that $4,000
or more refugees would mass
in front of the beachfront
hotel where the banquet will
be held.
However. police acted to head
off the risk of any trouble. Two
hundred officers were on duty
and warnings have gone out
that anyone starting a dis
turbance will be arrested.
The President is staying at
the home of the Late Mrs.
Harriet E, Young on the Bis
cayne Bay side of Miami Beach.
Mr.. Kennedy occupied a
second-floor bedroom overlook

were against reapportionment
legislation.
IF ever there was a glarine
example of the need for reap
portionment, it was in the vote
tonight" Delegate Carlton r
Sickles, Democrat of Prince
Georges, told reporters after
the session.
But it was not only the
Eastern Shore which opposed
the bill. Fifteen of Baltimore
City's SO lawmakers votec
against it.
Delegate Barbee of Mont
gomery took the floor to pro-
test that the bill was an in
vasion of the right of a pro-
prietor to choose his custom
ers. He said Montgomery al
ready has integrated. He &C.
cused the Federal Government
Of putting pressure on the
State to pass public accommo-
dations legislation.
President Kennedy and the
State Department urged Mary
land legislative action last year
after several African diplomats
were refused service at Route
40 restaurants.
Delegate Machen of Prince
Georges said he was opposed to
passing the legislation for part
OF the State and leaving such
a big section out. He said he
would vote for it, however, had
it included the Route 40 cor
ridor.
NAACP Action Deplored
Mr.. Machen also protested
against the tactics of the Mary
land National Association for
the Advancement of Colored
People in writing the telegram
to President Kennedy.
Several delegates said they
thought the telegram had con-
siderable effect on the issue.
Gov. Tawes told reporters
afterwards that he thought il
was unfortunate" that the
telegram was sent and that it
became a conversation piece
in the corridors" He said il
might have influenced some
delegates. Photostats of a story
about the telegram were circu-
lated among delegates yester-
day.
In a separate action, the AS
sembly killed a bill which three
Eastern Shore counties tried to
get through to sharply increase
the penalties for trespass vio-
lations. This was aimed at free
dom riders who have been dem
onstrating weekly at restau-
rants on the Eastern Shore.

Senator Thurmond said the

magazines for his material fol
his lecture on anti-communism
before hundreds of Fort Bel

tested that one of the maya
sines used was The Nation
which he criticized as leftist.
Neither the name of the pri-
vate nor the Fort Belvoir in
formation officer who as
signed him to the indoctrina-
ton program, a major, were
identified at the hearing. Sen

not challenging their motiva-

lands last week submitted to
Governor ~Paiewonsky and to
the President of the Legisla-
ture, an urgent proposal for
the greater security of the PEG

proposal urged immediate

ficient to supplement stocks
on hand for thirty days in the
event of war-caused disasters,
hurricane, quakes or man
made disasters such as a ship
ping Or plane strike, which

ports Our studies indi-
cate approximately only two
weeks supply of food are on

far too little for safety. So per

must be imported"
