Beall Urges Return To FormerRole a letter to Gerald Ford, Senator J. Glenn Beall Jr. (R-Md.) says it is essential for the United States to return to its "tra- ditional role of iirm" evenhand- nue subway.

By making Bowen Changeslii South End Suggested Two major traffic. 1 changes in the South End have been recommended by Chief of Police E. Shank to Commis sioner of. Fire and Police W. Lewis in a.

letter dated August 16. The traffic pattern recom mendations will improve traffic safety in that area, the chief indicates. He recommended that: "Springdale Street, front First Street to the Industrial Boulevard West, be made one way south from First Street toward the Industrial Boulevard. The entire length of this street is actually too narrow to permit two lanes of traffic and one lane of parking. It is my opinion, there is not adequate off-street parking to have parking' remov- ed from this street.

"This has been a bottleneck for sometime and could be a dangerous situation, if a fire truck were to be caught pro- ceeding in either direction on Springdale Street and be met by a vehicle in the op- posite direction. "The second area that I fee! is necessary to be changed to a one-way flow of traffic is the first block of Bowen Street from Virginia Avenue LaFayette Avenue. This should be made one-way in this direc- tion, and King Street or Offutt Street should be made one way in the first block LaFayette Avenue to Virginia Avenue. "The intersection at King Street or Offutt Street, and Virginia Avenue will be signaliz- ed as soon as a controller is made available to this depart- ment, and that should "be shortly. After scheduled for new controls installation at other intersections are installed, the old controller would then ae used there." The chief said four controllers have been contracted for and an additional three devices wil! be requested in the near future.

Another traffic change recom- mended by the chief is Bowen Street which now carries two- vay traffic. His recommenda- tion continues: 'Bowen Street traffic presents ja real danger when being used as a two-way street. Traffic at- tempts to come out on Virginia Avenue and is met by traffic coming out of the Virginia Av.e edness in-disputes between our allies." Beall says the U.S. must yVise all the at its disposal about a total and complete cease-fire on the island, of -Cyprus, and that the process of gradual aggression which the Turkish forces have engaged in during "the past lew weeks must be brought to a Sen. Beail says the stability of the new civilian government in Greece must be of special importance as the U.S.

Sen. Beall wrote the Presi- dent, "A United States policy of evenhandedness, fairly and firmly, applied, can best achieve these goals and thus serve our national interests in the Eastern Mediterranean." The Maryland Senator told Mr. Ford that he strongly sup- ports the President's recent call for immediate compliance with the United Nations cease-fjjp resolution, and has called on the President to do everything in his power to bring the con- flict to a conclusion. prompt and just Street one-way west' (toward LaFayette Avenue) this danger would eliminated and 1 also would effect a smoother flow of traffic in that area." The chief also indicated in his letter to Commissioner Lewis that he would b'e willing to meet with the Mayor and City Council io explain his recommedations in Order that the city's govern- ing body could i whether or not to support his suggestions.

Left to right officers Democrats To Furnish Donor List The treasurer of the Allegany County Democratic State Cen- tral Committee said last night he 'will send a complete list of donors to the state election board in explanation of a $2,500 contribution made in the com- mittee's name for- a Governor Mandel fund raiser. J. Frederick Sharer, the trea- surer, made statement fol- lowing appearance, of a story in The Baltimore Sun yesterday alleging that the contribution apparently conceals donations by several individuals. Last night, Mr. Sharer said that there are more than several contributors involved in the donation, and he will send the list of donors names to Williard A.

Morris of the state election board. The contributions were made for the "Four Star Salute" held in May of 1973. The Sun reported that the con- tribution was in one check total- ing 52,500, however, Mr. Sharer said there were four or five checks sent to the fund raising unit, with the sum being In fact, the central committee actually sent funds totaling 2600, which is $100 over the limit, and $100 of that was re- turned. Mr.

Sharer said when the money was returned he realized that the contribution was being accepted by the fund raising unit in the name of the central committee, rather than on behalf of individual contribu- tors themselves. Daniel F. McMullen III, a member of the central commit- tee, told the newspaper that "There was nothing illegal, just a bad judgment error," in the way contributions were submit- ted. Both Mr. McMullen and Mr.

Sharer said the S2.500 donation represented individual cash and check donations all of them for S100. State law requires making public any donation to a political campaign which exceeds $51, along with the name and address of the donor. The contributions de- posited in the central commit- tee's bank account, "purely as a convenience." Mr. Sharer said. In turn, checks for the total amount were forwarded to Donald E.

Webster, treasurer of the "Four Star Salute" fund raiser. Along with the checks went a list of the names and ad- dresses of i i i a con- tributors and an exlanation of why the local check was drawn on the local committee's count. Sharer "said in an inter- view with The Sun that he did not have a copy of the list and that only Mr. Webster had the information. Mr.

Webster has been unavailable for comment. Mr. Sharer said it was conin- 0 dental that the check totaled highway 2 000 the largest amount should be the number one! for a campaign contribution (1-A); Cas Taylor Cumberland, (2-A); Kav Morgan, club treasurer, and R. Donald Shaffer, this city, (1-B). RETIRES William A.

Noting that counsel for the litigants had cited many cases in support of their intentions, Judge Getty said the court was dismayed to find that overlooked was "Hileniah vs: Hulver 243 Maryland 527, decided July 21, 1966, where the precise question presented here was decided by his same court, affirmed by the Court of Appeals and involv- ed the same BO Federal Credit Union, an identical passbook legend, and same officer of the credit union as a principal witness. A more relevant prece- dent would be difficult to envi- sion," the court added. He then assimilated facts pro- duced by parties to suit and applied i the law in the' case cited as enunciated by Judge Wilson K. Barnes.

Judge Getty said there was I no evidence to support testi-l mony the account passbook gi-l ven to Albert J.
