Governor O'Conor
Says No New Taxes

Co-incident with the conven1ng
of the 1916 session Of the Maryland
General Assembly in the State
House at Annapolis on Wednesday,
Governor Herbert Il. O'Conor issu-
ed statement pledging that no new
taxes would be asked during the
present session and that policy of
gradual elimination of the real
estate tax would be pressed
Financially, Governor O'Conor
pointed out, the State has never
been in a sounder position, its cred
II ranking with the highest among
the States of the Country. The pres
ent bonded debt of the state, of
$27, 100000, reflects total reduce
ton under his administration of
more than $21 100000, Governor
O'Conor emphasized. At the same
time, he pointed out the present real
estate and property tax rate is the
lowest IL has been since the Civil
War and that the State has been
operating on a balanced budget
throughout the six years of his adj
ministration.
More Than S6,3OO,OOO Saved
Emergency expenditures arising
as the result Of the States parti-
cipation in the war effort have add
ed substantially to the total cost of
administration, the Governor added,
but declared that this had been off
set largely by reversions to the
State Treasury resulting from econ.
omies and savings effected in other
activities of the State. Each year
it was pointed out at the Execu-
tive Offices, efforts for economy in
operation of the various depart
ments, agencies and institutions
have kept expenditures below the
amounts appropriated, so that tot
al of more than $6,3O0,00O has beer
reverted to the State Treasury dur.
ing the six years.
With a healthy surplus assured
for the end of the fiscal year OF
June 30, Governor OConor has in
dictated that he will ask the Legis
lRture to "earmark" a substantial
portion Of the unencumbered funds
for postwar construction purposes
to add to the approximately $4,000,
900 already allotted for this purpose
and to which the balance Of thu

Mayor Anon, in winding ur
his term which ended fourteen
years of service as mayor of Ken
newick, related the status of sew
eral of the projects which the
city had under way but uncom-
pleted.
He called attention to the fact
that during the lean years the
Garden Tracts had paid city taxes
on their small acreages and had
as yet not received other facili-
ties which the rest of the city
enjoys, particularly sewer sys-
tenn. He pointed out that since
the recent building boom, the
logical development of a resi-.
Dental area would now undoubt.
eddy move nearer the river. This
development, he added, would be
greatly accelerated if sewers were
available in that district and urged
the council to keep this develop
ment well in mind during the
early post war era.
Attorney Powell, called upon
for his "swan song" made an ex-
cellent little speech in which he
said that his. ten years of work
as city attorney had been pleas
ant in every respect. He said that
a small town council was the
very foundation of democracy
and that he had found that in the
ten years there had been no
single incident wherein each rep
resentative had failed to act for
the best interests of the commun-
ity as he had seen proper.
Following the inauguration
ceremonies, simple swearing in of
the new officers, the new organi-
cation, under the direction of
the new mayor, Immediately tack
led the unfinished business of
the evening. He announced a
delay in naming the councilmen
to their committees until the next
regular meeting.
AS the police department-and
soon the fire department are un-
der civil regulations, there are
no changes contemplated :. in the
personnel of either department.
