Points From Retiring Governors
Message.

The States finances. at the end
of the fiscal year, September 80,
1919. after all outstanding obliga-
tions Of every kind, both special
and general, are paid. there will
be shown to be in the treasury to
the credit Of the State SITS, ,692.33.
and, according to the estimate OF
the Comptroller, there will be a
net surplus Of s1,O2s,04O.33 at the
end OF the fiscal year. September
SO 1920, notwithstanding the fact
that the public schools received
for 1919-1s2O s250,O0O more than
ever before as a regular appropiia-
tion, and s15O.O00 as a special ap-
preparation cut Of the general
treasury. and that 100000 addi-
tlonal appropriation was made for
State aid to roads and 100000
more to meet the upkeep and
maintenance of State roads.
Maryland's budget system is the
model for most OF the State
budgets and its main principles
are proposed for the national
budget. 1t should be strength
ened, not weakened. The abolish
ing of continuing appropriations
and the adoption OF the executive
budget system have been vital in
Maryiaud's fiscal system.
My experience has taught me "
believe more strongly than eyfr
in the parole system"
The Governor advocated larger
salaries for school teachers.
We must continue our good
roads system. 1t is the pride Of
our Stale. We have today in
Maryland about 1.2OO miles Of
State roads, about 463 miles of
state-aided roads and about 500
miles Of improved or semi-im-
proved county roads
The cost Of legislative expenses
decreased by $4,000. Some of.
fees consolidated. others aboi-
ished and some $4,000 saved.
State printing reduced by one
half.
State Law Department created.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

New York, Jan. 10.-The New York
Evening Sun financial review today
said:
Trading in today's short session of
the stock market was neither very ac-
tive nor broad, and such as 1t
was was largely confined to the
Industrial list. The rails We're quite
severely left alone. Trading from the
outset was obviously professional in
character and mainly confined to COW
ering operations against next weeks
possible results as to Qualification of
the treaty situation. The steels were
again the most consistently strong fea-
lures with gains of fraction to two
points or more.
At the beginning of the second hour
prices yielded to some extent but again
stiffened before the closing.
