After killing three amendments Of
fered to the measure, the Senate
passed to its third reading the bill
providing for the sale of National
Guard property in Baltimore and the
use of funds for erecting armories in
Cumberland, Hagerstown, Centerville
and Silver Spring The bill is the one
approved by Acknowledgement Reck-
ord. The lot at North and Maryland
avenues is to be sold, $4,000 being
the estimated proceeds.
Amendments were offered by Sen
ators Mcdaniel and Robins to obtain
armories, respectively, for Talbot and
Somerset counties from any excess
funds. Majority Floor Leader Nc
Intosh urged that the easiest way to
settle the dispute between the two
counties was to allow the bill to stand
as originally offered. A further amend
ment offered by Senator Parran to de-
vote any excess funds for schools also
was voted down.
Following consideration of this bill,
the Senate killed by vote of % to S
the Prick bill to devote all the funds
to improving National Guard armories
in Baltimore.

A new departure in public hygiene
is proposed by bill presented in the
House by Delegate Grammar, which
provides that the State shall place in
each polling booth in Maryland a re-
ceptacle for the collection of funds to
relieve sufferers from tuberculosis.
To handle the funds thus resulting
from voluntary contributions the bill
would create a committee at each
polling place consisting of seven men
and three women, who would distri-
butte the proceeds to hospitals and in
dividuals according to their best judy
ment, but in such fashion that no one
religious set shall receive more than
another. Negro patients shall share
in the distribution. These committees
shall make reports to the Governor as
to their operations.
