If his driving record is such that
the Commissioner of Motor Vehic-
les feels it is in the best interest
of the public to require proof of
future financial responsibility.
Effective Out of Md.
Under certain circumstances, the
law also affects residents Of Mary
land while operating cars in other
States or in Canada. For instance,
if resident Of Maryland is con
victed of certain offenses such as
drunken or reckless driving, or has
judgment taken against him in
any other State or in Canada, upon
receipt of notice Of this fact the
Department Of Motor Vehicles is
required to proceed in the same
manner as though the occurrence
were in this State. All provisions
of the act also apply to non-resi-
dent owners and operators using
the streets and highways of Mary
land under the same circumstances
as they would apply to resident.

O'ConOr Initiates
Move To Lower
State Income Tax
Governor Declares All Levels
Of Government Should Seek
To Reduce Levies

In a move looking toward pos
sible reduction of State taxes, and
the income tax in particular, Gov
ernor Herbert r. O'Conor has ask
ed the Board of Public Works to
give first consideration to such
tax reduction in deciding upon the
disposition of expected surplus
funds likely to accrue to the State
during the remainder of the fiscal
year of 1915.
Legal authority is vested in the
Board of Public Works, Governor
O'Conor pointed out, to utilize any
surplus in the States general
funds, in excess of the working
fund of $2,OOO,0OO prescribed by
law, for any of the following pur-
poses:
"a Reduction in income tax
(2) Reduction in property tax
(3) ALLEGATION of surplus to
postwar construction purposes
While expressing a sympathetic
interest in all three possible uses
of any surplus funds, Governor
O'Conor declared that he felt
strongly that the utmost consider
alton was due the tax payers who
helped create any surplus that
may accrue. He pointed to the re-
cent transfer of 1920, 900 from
surplus to the postwar construc-
ton fund as indication of the de-
STABILITY for programming great
part of this new construction from
funds in hand. At the same time,
he called attention to the fact that
much of this construction cannot
be undertaken Immediately be-
cause Of existing conditions.
The Governor has asked the
Board of Public Works to review
present revenues and estimates of
tnicipated receipts in the hope that
a further reduction may be made
in taxes affecting 1945 calendar
year incomes.
Such move, Governor O'Conor
asserted, is thoroughly in line with
his belief that tax reductions
should be attempted by all levels
of government to stimulate bust
ness and private enterprise, and to
relieve in some measure the heavy
tax load brought about by the war.

Motor Vehicle Safety Responsibility Lav

The new Motor Vehicle Safety
responsibility Law, passed at the
last session of the Legislature, be-
comes effective January /, 1916.
Because it directly concerns more
than 100000 licensed motor vehicle
owners and operators of Maryland,
and indirectly every citizSh, w.
Lee Elgin, Commissioner of Motor
Vehicles is directing a Statewide
Educational Program to acquaint
the public with this most impor-
tant statute.
Two General Aims
AS its title indicates, the law
has two general aims: First to
establish financial responsibility
on the highways by requiring that
anyone who owns or operates car
shall pay for damages he causes
to others or forfeit his driving
license and registration plates;
secondly, to serve as an incentive
for better driving by Increasing
the motorists stake in safety and
placing premium on good driv-
ing records.

For we did our stretch in He'll.

For our cooks to burn our beans
We have stood a million guard

We have cleaned up our latrines
We have waded through the

Of million tons of mud,
We have Killed a million insects
That have tried to suck our

And we lay aside life's cares
When we stand that last

The Angels then will welcome u.
