2 Thursday, October 19, 1961 SENTINEL ’STS. Bill on Unemployment Is Criticized by Hume David Hume, candidate for the Democratic nomina tion for governor of Maryland, has criticized Gov. Millard Tawes for having signed an unemployment compensation bill containing “more holes than a piece of Swiss cheese.” Speaking before the District of Columbia Central La- bor Council in Washington, Hume said: “The unemployment compen sation bill passed by the State Assembly and signed by Gover nor Tawes is a rigged bill de signed not to achieve and worthy purpose of helping un employed workers survive un til they can be gainfully em ployed through a revived econ omy, but to get a few special interests protected for years to come. “S.B. 19, as passed and signed, has more holes than a piece of Swiss cheese, and the effort of organized labor in Maryland to defeat this legislative atrocity by a referendum of the voters deserves the support of right thinking people. “After listening too long and too attentively to the special in terest pleading of certain sel fish short-sighted pleaders, the legislature and the governor produced a bill that makes it "BSNNIKS" BEST SERVICE 24 HRS.

To sweeten this sour brew, the bill raises the benefits of a few eli gible unemlpoyed but single improvement scarcely balances the many few weak nesses in the unemployment compensation program. “In this new era, Maryland needs better leadership in order to produce more jobs and to diminish the rigors of unem ployment for those who have no jobs. Above all, we must rec ognize that a decent unemploy ment compensation bill is in the interest not only of those unem ployed, not only of organized labor, not only of the business community, but of the whole State itself. As governor of Maryland, I will provide that kind of new era leadership to the Free State."

In recommending the removal of 12 “well-used" metered park ing spaces in the 900 block of Pershing dr. between Georgia ave. and Fenton it, to accom modate the stand, the Council overrode objections that it will create a serious traffic problem and that it will take parking spaces from both shoppers and I IT MAKES SENSE I J DOLLARS WITH I AWMSHERWIN-i EgiriWtowsj ■ IfWj I FARM PAINTS I duality paints for homes, barns, implements, tractors, roofs and metal buildings MOUSI FAINTi (•Urlil COMMON* Keepeqvlpinent I* cendl.

Speaking in favor of the stand were the county’s Direc tor of Public Works, Joseph C. Kordella and attorney John P. Moore, representing the Yellow Cab Co. of Silver Spring. Mr. Moore is chairman of the Traf fic Committee of the SUver Spring Board of Trade. Moore told the Council it would be serving the public con yenience and necessity by au thorizing the public stand, since, he said, there is not suf ficient taxi service in the area at the present time, especially during peak travel periods. He added, however, that it might be advisable to withdraw the parking authority during such heavy shopping periods as the Christmas season, in which the Council concurred. Under questioning by Coun cil member Joe M. Kyle, he said that the 12 metered parking spaces to be released by the cab stand had been “well-used," but added that property own ers in the area had agreed the parking should be removed.
