Rev Neal Succumbs at 82 KILLER of Ktt4i mA S111 By JOHN WOODFIELD ANNAPOLIS MD (AP) Gov Spiro "Ted" Agnew of Maryland the Republican vice presidential nomine has changed his political thinking over the years The 49-year-old candidate switched from the Democrats to the GOP in post-World War II days In the past six months he has gone through a re-evaluation period which he changed from moderate to conservative from Gov Nelson A Rockefeller to Richard Nixon and from a position as an emphatic noncandidate to the second spot on the Republican ticket Agnew has more than two years remaining of his four-year gubernatorial term He swept past Democrat George Mahoney in 1966 by nearly 100000 votes on a liberal platform that included at open-occupancy plank THE LIBERAL stance was not new to the son of a Greek immigrant whose father changed his name from Anagnostopoulos It was during his administration as Baltimore County executive that the county became one of the first in the country to enact a law banning racial discrimination in public accommodations "Let's keep Maryland in the mainstream of America" he asked voters during his successful bid for governor in 1966 as he called Mahoney a "bigot racist incompetent menace to Maryland" Mahoney campaigned on a platform deploring crime in the streets and with a slogan "Your home is your castle protect it" BUT AGNEWS political posture changed slowly but radically in the last six months although he told reporters shortly before leaving for Miami Beach "I haven 't changed" "I'm standing still it's just that others are moving more to the left" he said The switch became evident last April when Agnew rebuked Baltimore Negro leaders following the riots touched off by the assassination of Dr Martin Luther King Jr AGNEW CHARGED that they stood silent while outside militants fanned the flames of insurrection "And you ran You agreed that you would not openly criticize any black spokesman regardless of the content of his remarks You were beguiled by the rationalization of unity you were intimidated by veiled threats you were stung by insinuations that you were Mr Charlie's boy by epithets like 'Uncle Tom' "Somewhere the objectives of the civil rights movement have been obscured in a surge of emotional oversimplification Somewhere the goal of equal opportunity has been replaced by the goal of instantaneous economic equality "THE FICTION that Negroes lack any opportunity in this country is dispelled by the status of those of you in this room" the governor told them Half of them stalked angrily from the meeting All condemned the speech but letters poured in by the thousands praising the governor And just a week ago at his last news conference before leaving for Miami Beach he said that police should not hestiate to shoot looters who will not surrender "IF THE general public gets used to the idea that as long as you can out-leg a police officer you can get away scot free the whole system of law and order will break down" he said AGNEW ONE of the earliest advocates of Rockefeller's candidacy for the GOP nomination began to re-evaluate that position in late March Obviously disenchanted by the New York governor's on-again off-again statements on his candidacy and privately miffed because Rockefeller did not let him know in advance of his March 21 news conference that he would again disavow any interest in the presidential nomination Agnew began leaning more and more toward Nixon "He my number two choice for the Republican presidential nomination" he said in early April HE HASTENED to add however that "I still think Gov Rockefeller is the best candidate the Republican party can offer the electorate in November But having someone who is not willing to become a candidate be the best candidate is no way to elect anybody So I'm in the process of revising and waiting and watching to see what's going to happen" He denied reports that he was playing politics with possibly the vice presidency or a Cabinet post as his goal In an interview with The Associated Press during the Republican State Convention that named him as a favorite-son candidate the Maryland governor said he would not "under any circumstances" leave his present office "until at least after the 212 years remaining in my term of office have expired" BUT HE indicated privately that changing events might change his mind Agnew announced his support of Nixon at Miami Beach and made his nominating speech 0 At a news conference in Miami Beach Thursday shortly after Nixon announced his choice of Agnew the Maryland governor said he was stunned "I HAD no idea that this was going to happen It came as a bolt out of the blue" But he said he welcomed "the chance at this crucial moment in American history to be part of a campaign team to put America on a new level of progress" Agnew who stands 6-foot-2 and weighs 194 pounds is an SAVE UP TO Itim 4BUGS' I MID-SUMMER CLEARANCE!
