SECURITY
BILL WIDELY
OPPOSED

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Dec. O.
Patronage loomed today as the
major obstacle to enactment Of a
social security act for Maryland,
for which a special session Of the
general assembly was called by
Gov. Harry w. Nice.
The legislature went into ses-
sion yesterday and heard mes
sage from the governor in which
he asked speedy action on the
draft of the act drawn by a COM
mittee appointed by him some few
weeks ago.
A special session was necessary
to enact a law acceptable to Fed
eral authorities, so Maryland
would not lose benefits paid by
employees and employers before
the regular session begins, Jan
uary /.
Bill in Both Houses
Yesterday a bill was introduced
AL GAI6 1GOubC Wy 0PCdACA G144AoAAACA
Gorfine CD of Baltimore, and in
the senate by Senator j. Allan
Coad Cd, st. Mary's county, ma
jority floor leader, which had been
drafted by the Nice committee.
Coad informed the senate that
he introduced the bill, but that
he strongly opposed many of its
provisions. House leaders said the
bill is far from acceptable.
While there is contention over
rate to be paid by those whom it
affects and other features, the
main fight appeared to be over
patronage.
Under the provisions Of the
measure as introduced, Governor
Harry w. Nice, q Republican,
would name q commission of
three to administer the act. The
chairman would receive $4,000 a
year and his two associates
would be paid $500 each.

There are hundreds of anxious
parents with no extra money to
put aside for Christmas. And
when their children ask, "IS
Santa Claus going to remember
us this year." it is no wonder that
these mothers sit down and write
such pitiful letters begging some
one to remember their children.
Many of these unfortunates are
depending solely on the Good Fei-
