PRESIDENT CAMPBELL HAS
BILL FOR A CEMETERY
Senator Calls Attention 10 Unkempt
Conditions of Many of the Grave
yards of the Would
Improve Conditions

Scathing criticism of the way in
which practically all of the Gene
teries of the State are kept, is includ-
ed in bill introduced in the Senate
last night by President Campbell. The
bill creates q cemetery commission
and calls for the establishment by the
State of a cemetery accessible to all
sections of the State and beyond all
danger of encroachment from any
city, the State to provide for perpetual
care thereof, so that original pur-
chasers of plots cannot be eXhumed
and thrust aside by subsequent heirs
to make room for later generations.
In the preamble to his bill Presi-
dent Campbell states: at is a mat
ter of common knowledge that there is
widespread and lamentable neglect
of burial places in this State, it mat
tiers not whether the Maryland Gene
teries be controlled by corporations as
means of making money or whether
well-intended cooperative organiza.
lions institute them or whether vari-
GUS church bodies or religious socie-
ties establish them"
After referring to the fact that many
cemeteries have had TO give way 10
city encroachments he asserts tnat
many men are now living. who have
seen collins protTuding, with their
CHASTITY remains out of the hillsides
OF a once beautiful cemetery on JEFF
ferson street in Baltimore. q few
blocks east of Broadway, while others
are living who played with skulls that
came from the ground now occupied
by Johns Hopkins Hospital.
The bill calls. for the appointment Of
commission consisting one member
from the First Congressional District:
two from the second, three from the
third, three from the fourth. one from
the fifth, and two from the sixth. The
commission is to be named by the Gov
ernor and is to report with a bill sug-
costing sites, land, prices and other
information
