Gov Albert C Ritchie told the Senate campaign funds committee he has not mounted a national bid and does not expect to be nominated. He expects Maryland to instruct delegates for him at the May 22 convention and would seek outside help if friendly delegates arise.

The panel plans further hearings in Annapolis and New York to question Ritchie and Gov Smith about delegate support.
