Observance or Violation?
By H. S. Douglas

Much has been said and written about the violation of
the State of Marylands o-caIed Blue Lawas by the way
which also apply to Washington County
But right the question whether should should
have Sunday the question whether should
should have Sunday automobile the question
form of entertainment Sunday in Washington County The
question before the people the minute very simple
and here is:
Are entertainment promoters to be permitted fagrantly
violate existing laws? these laws be honestly
ey enforced by the county law enforcement officers such
they repealed by the State Legislature by
to be unconstitutional?
my understanding that after violators of the laws
the old Blue Law have been than county
law enforcement officers then apply the an
junction any further violation remains to be
whether this action will will not be taken.
Personally I'm sick and having the Ministerial Asso
caton the Council of Churches religious group
being blamed for something that any a-abidng citizen should
back the h and that the fragrant the laws on
the books personally violate any of of Wash
ngton County the State of Maryland expect pay penalty
And whether think that Sunday good
whether think that ping pong Sunday good
bad, is beside the point
This whole question confronting this fragrant
of existing laws and what the law enforcement officers
to do about it!
