L Official
By BALLOT BOX

The failure of Governor O'Conor
to name the new members of the
Washington County Liquor Board
seems to me to be just another
proof that all is not milk and
honey in Maryland Democratic
circles.
The term of Office of the old
board expired on May 81 and the
Democratic Central Committee for
Washington County, acting in ac-
cordance with the law, submitted
their recommendation to the Gov
ernor several weeks ago. Governor,
O'Conor, however, has failed, so
far, to act on those recommended
tions, nor has he, as far as / have
been able to learn, requested the
Central Committee to submit an
other list of recommendations.
Under the law, of course, the old
board carries on until a new board
is appointed and certified to office.
There is persistent rumor
floating around that one of the
reasons for Governor O'Conor's
failure to name new board, is his
inability to reconcile the fact that
a member of the old board has
been prominently mentioned for ap-
pointment to a judgeship, but yet
is not, according to the rumor,
named by the central committee
for reappointment to the liquor
board
