That the natural facilities in
Maryland afford innumerable rea-
sons and attractions for the estab-
lishment OF industries.
That such being the the case the
reason for the non-establishment
of industries here must be due to
made situation and condi-
ton.
1t developed during the discus
sion Of the plans for action that all
three of the men thought that Bal
timore was unsurpassed as to its
natural facilities, notably its water
and rail transportation, labor and
accessibility. The Chesapeake
Bay, the great railroads and the
innumerable other smaller methods
of transportation offer an unlimited
field in that respect.
Regarding labor, it was stated
during the discussion, that condi-
tions in Maryland are pronounced
the best for the reason that the
operatives of plants are of better
class. live under better social con-
ditions and are useful citizens of
the State. Maryland's accessible
ity is patent, a look at the map
being sufficient.
With this hopeful outlook as to
natural advantages to offer the
commission then talked of the bur

afternoon. State Senator Charles
P. Coady is chairman.
Gov. Crothers was unable to at
tend the meeting because of an en-
gagement in Annapolis, but ex-
pressed great interest in the work
of the commission and will wait
for its recommendations.
Mr.. DeWarren H. REYNOLDS, of
Cumberland, and Mr.. Thomas G..
Boggs, secretary of the Merchants
and Manufacturers Association
were the only other members of
the commission present, but the
work was taken up vigorously and
definite results are expected.
Senator Coady told the commits
sion that he thought aside from
the main point of bringing new
industries to Maryland the prop
osition of fostering those that are
here should not be forgotten. In
this he met with the approval of
his colleagues. 1t was stated that
the best scheme practicable would
be to amend laws to meet present
conditions making Maryland S
plants the models of their kind.
The following definite ideas
we're formulated as a basis on
which to work:

den of taxation, freight rates and
other expenses which corporation
would have to bear in this State in
comparison to that in other States.
1t was agreed that Maryland repels
industries by its system of taxa
ton.
While it is entirely too early to
forecast what recommendations
the commission may make, it is
thought that the most serious one
will be that of outlining an entire
ly new system of taxation which
will make it attractive to firms to
settle here.
