BILL TO REDRAFT MARY
LANDS CONSTITUTION

Governor Richie has directed
Attorney General w. Preston Lane,
ST., to draft a bill to call a convention
to act on redrafting the State Consti-
tuition The measure would be
presented to the General Assembly
as soon as completed.
The Governors action follows the
controversy over whether or not the
vote on the convention, taken at the
November election was sufficient un-
der the law, to convene the body for
consideration Of the constitution.
The executive said that the bill
would be drawn, and any opposition
to calling the convention would have
to be taken to the courts. for a de-
cision on legality Of the vote,
The measure, which probably will
be ready for presentation to the
assembly next week, will provide
the election Of delegates to the con-
vention, selection of a meeting place,
probably in either Baltimore or An
napois, and a .datesfor the gathering.

Why Heavy Timbers in
Colonial Frame Houses

Every American feels his interest
kindled when he espies a historical
frame dwelling whose construction
date may go back $50 to 200 years
to some early Colonial period. Com
ments upon the soundness of the con.
struction methods Of those early days
are made frequently without the
speaker knowing in what ways they
differ from today.
The braced timber frame was in
variably used along the North At
lantic coast. The early colonists did
not set out to invent this frame. They
brought with them tradition of heavy
half-timber construction from the
mother country. There was a great
abundance of standing timber. cutting
by hand was laborious, and timbers
were used which were much stronger
than required for strength. Posts
and girts were eight and ten-inch
square-hewn timbers. - Philadelphia
