GEkTLEAAENs AGREEMENT?
Sons Of Opposing Porty Leaders Run in AIlegony

In Washington County, DEM
ocratic State Senator George
E. Snyder looks like an easy
winner over D. Keller Ride
nour.
In both Garrett and Allegany
counties, Democrats may have
a struggle to hold onto the four
seats they captured in the
House of Delegates in 1858,
With Mr. Walsh trying for the
State Senate, only one incum-
bent Democrat is running for
reelection to the House in Al
legany. and only one of two
Democratic incumbents is run
ming in Garrett County.
The Democrats seem to have
a good chance in Washington
County of holding onto all six
of the House seats which they
swept in 1858 for the first time.
In Frederick County, home
of Republican Representative
Matthias, the Democrats have
fielded a strong slate of candi-
dates for the House of Dele
gates However, the Republicans
think they can hang onto their
single House seat held by Jo-
seph B. Payne, who is running
for reelection, and perhaps
pick up one or two Of the five
other places.

Court Blocks
Sucker Plan
By CORE

District Court Judge Alexan-
der Holtzoff today granted a
preliminary injunction to block
a plan by the Congress on Ra-
cial Equality to paste stickers
on electric utility bills in the
District.
CORE has been under a tenn
porary restraining order for the
last 10 days which has pre-
vented it from going through
with the plan to demonstrate
| its dissatisfaction with hiring
policies of the Potomac Electric
g. Power Co.
CORE had printed up some
100000 merit hiring" stamps
which it had planned to dis
tribute to PEPCO's customers.
The stamps were to be placed
on electricity bills so that they
would block the IBM punch
holes used by PEPCO in its
accounting.
TeStifying in a hearing be-
fore Judge Holtzoff today.
Charles L. Carr, vice president
and controller of PEPCO, said
the stamps would disrupt the
company's entire billing pro-
cedure.
He said that of PEPCO's
800, 900 customers. some 100000
are billed with the IBM punch
cards and some $4,000 stubs
are returned to PEPCO daily.
In issuing the temporary re-
straining order against CORE
earlier this month, Judge Holtz-
off recognized that the racial
organization had a right to
distribute the stamps but that
in placing them on PEPCO's
bills they would be guilty Of
defacing other peoples prop
erty.
CORE officials contend that
the electric company discrimi-
mates against Negroes in en-
ployment and promotion prac-
tees. PEPCO officials say they
give equal consideration to
all applicants"

him to cool Off"
If that doesn't work, "wai1

"When it is felt that the

act; group action usually Is
more effective than a cor

I was happy to find, also,
that there are "diSadvan-

behavior problems.
For one thing, "the en-

Grafton in the 1868 legislature.
A poll of candidates showed
both the Senate and House
might take the step.
However, the proposal would
have to provide for easing of
the financial impact on the
local budgets for legislators to
override the feelings of law
makers from the slot machine
counties.
Favorable Responses
The poll by the Associated
Press in conjunction with men,
Der newspapers in Maryland
and Washington yielded Is af-
firmative responses from both
Democratic and Republican
candidates for the Senate on
Statewide abolition of slots.
There are 90 members of the
Senate and Is votes are needed
for passage of a bill.
Five Democrats and six Re-
publicans opposed any such
move, leaving IL Democrats
and 10 Republicans undecided.
Most of those on the fence
said they wanted first to see
a concrete proposal before
committing themselves. But
some of them indicated they
would vote to abolish the ma
chimes if the counties affected
were given a change to make
up for loss of revenue over a
period of years.
Among candidates for the
House, 81 Democrats and 81
Republicans said they we're
ready to go ahead on State
legislation. There will be 142
members in the reapportioned
House and 70 will be needed for
a majority.

candidates, a great number Of

they would not be adverse to
having the people in their
county vote for or against
keeping the slots.
In Baltimore City and the
big suburban counties of Balti-
more, Montgomery and Prince

ing for the Senate and seven
Republicans went on record
against the slots.
There are 70 House seats at

HEW announced compile
ton of the first national

ago and said the results had
been collected in the work,
"Plankton Population Dy-
namics."
I went over to get a copy
from the superintendent of

North Capitol. I've always
been interested in plankton,
microscopic plants that drift
aimlessly in water largely
because they have no means
Of locomotion. But I've never
had any idea how many
there were.
The superintendent has a
charming book store and I
wandered around examining
various documents put out

are reasonably priced-5
cents and up-and take up
such subjects as "How to

Before asking one Of the
clerks at the counter for
"Plankton Population Dy-
namics" I wanted a little
more time to practice saying
the title and presently I
came across a pamphlet en-
titled, Pursuit Driving"
1t had been prepared by
the Internal Revenue Service
and was beamed at law en-
forcement officers and, I
suppose, tax collectors. 1t
was going for IS cents.
To accomplish the quick
get-after, the document said:
"From a stopped position,

ton is more important than
