Southern Democrats Attack Truman In Bitter Session
In Washington on April 28 Southern Democrats accused President Truman of tying votes on repealing Taft Hartley to patronage. The House erupted with Southern lawmakers denouncing Truman’s pledge that votes on repeal would affect patronage, as Rankin and Hebert led protests. The heated session adjourned with a key test vote expected next day on Wood and Lesinski bills. Also reported: Cumberland death of bull dozer operator Osborne Moore from injuries after a falling tree near Barton.

Opinion In Case Modified Routzahns Win Land Dispute
The Maryland Court of Appeals denied a reargument by the Routzahns and Potomac Edison after modifying the original opinion on their suit over land used for a trolley power line. The case involved easement rights and dates surrounding 1913 consolidations and prior franchise actions, with the court noting the power business was active well before 1913 and the motion moved too late. Also a note on lima bean popularity cites colonial settlers and warm summers in the South.
