Lloyd Balderston, chairman Of the
resolution committee, presented the
following resolutions, which were
unanimously adopted:
The Cecil County Farm Bureau as
sembled at its annual banquet de-
sires TO express its appreciation for
the present law advocated by our
State Farm Bureau, which put our
County road system under the super
vision of the State Highway Depart
ment, and financed by proceeds from
the gasoline tax. This measure has
greatly helped us as farmers, by CIV
ing us much lower taxes and also
improved roads and bridges.
And whereas the State law was
enacted for only two years, ana does
soon expire, therefore, Be 1t Resolv-
ed, that we now express our unani-
nous opinion that this law be con-
tinued.
Be 1t further Resolved that we
also oppose the use of any of the
gasoline tax proceeds for other pur-
poses than those connected with the
building and care of our highway
system andsall lateral roads.
And be it further Resolved that
our Senator and Representatives be
informed Of our action.
Whereas, Cecil County, for many
years before the passage of the 18th
Amendment, had the opportunity to
vote at regular intervals in regard to
the sale of intoxicants.
Therefore, Be it Resolved, that the
Cecil County Farm Bureau assembled
now in its annual session, encourage
our Representatives and Senator to
introduce and work for the passage
of new law similar to the old one.
