Maryland lawmakers urged President Eisenhower to proclaim 24 hour flag display at Francis Scott Key birth site in Carroll County and Key's grave in Olivet Cemetery Frederick but the request was rejected. Senators Marshall Butler and J Glenn Beal and Reps Devereux and Hyde sponsored the appeal noting the Flag Code limits display to sunrise to sunset unless the President permits changes.
