Delegate Edwards Can't Serve
as Grantsville Mayor

Members of the House of Delegates
receive daily wage for the time thy
put in during regular and special ses-
sions of the Maryland Assembly
plus mileage for travelling expenses
to and from Annapolis.
In their spare time, while not max.
ing or revising laws, they are permit
ted to engage in business or work at
their respective trades-but they can
not hold any other Office of profit or
trust.
So Harry c. Edwards, Grantsville,
member of the House, will have to
cast aside any hope of being mayor
of Grantsville while he is member of
the Legislature. He recently asked
Attorney-General Herbert R. O'Conor
for an opinion in the matter, and was
informed that he could not hold both
positions at the same time.
Edwards was recently elected
mayor of Grantsville without opposi-
ton. The salary of the Grantsville
mayor is $40 year.
