Fight Over Annexation.

IT is expected that the fights over
annexation of sections of Baltimore
county and Anne Arundel county to
Baltimore city, statutory prohibition
for Maryland, ratification of the fed
eral prohibition amendment and over
race tracks will start almost as soon
as the members are comfortably fixed
in their seats. Some of the Baltimore
city men concerned in the fight for
annexation are insisting that the Nom
Partisan Annexation Leagues bill be
introduced Immediately. that it be re-
ferred either to a special committee
or to the judiciary committee, supple
mented by representatives of Baltimore
city and of Anne Arundel and Balti-
more counties. and that limited time
say fifteen days, be allowed for the
committees hearings and deliberations,
after which it shall be reported on the
floor and forced to an issue.
There is no doubt that the Anti-Sa-
loon League people will force the fight
ing on both phases of the prohibition
issue, right from the start, and that
every effort will be made to block them
right from the start. These fights will
be without quarter and in total disre-
gard of the amenities. So with the
race track issue.
