SAN FANCISCO - I found a
bright and fascinating world in the
ocean.
1t was a world of vivid color,
fantastic shapes and constant mo-
tion--a world more remindful of
some wild setting for a stellar
space movie than of the familiar
solid earth.
had gone to Santa Barbara for
a weekend visit to the California
Fish and Game Department abalone
research project. I was logged out
in a rubber suit, with 100 pounds
or SO of lead hung on me, and in
an iron hat went prowling around
with the fish and seaweed. :.
Pressure Troublesome
My first surprise was that when
/ started down I began to feel the
effects of the water pressure.
Hardly was my helmet under the
surface when the water began
squeezing air out the safety valve
and the heavy rubber suit chung
to me like underwear.
About Is feet down, / got the
first real jolt when the pressure
hit my ears. It was like all the
devils in the world poking pins
in my ear drums. / yelled on the
inter-com - which connects the
helment with the crew above-for
Glenn Bickford, tending the lines
to pull me up bit. / got my ears
adjusted and went on down. Final
ly, was on the bottom.
The solid, gently sloping sand
was gone-replaced by a moving
semi-fluid cushion which seemed
to float away as you stepped
through it to the hardness beneath.
l was in world of constant move
ment, of vivid spectral color and
of huge, unearthly shapes. I
quickly learned that there is no
real quiet in the ocean. And no
matter how gently it may seem,
that movement is accompanied by
irresistible force. / started to
climb over a house-SiZed boulder.
Just as I reached the top, the
gently swaying current changed
and gently but irresistably lifted
me off my rock and floated me
back to the bottom.
But with all the motion, and the
weird surprising shapes, still it
was the color which was most
impressive and unearthly. The
prismatic effect of the sun rays
cutting through the water gave
everything a luminous and vivid.
glow. Seaweed, a rope like,
stringy, dull brown stuff on the
surface, took on rich and varying
shapes of green and purplish
brown as the great strands con-
stantly writhed and twisted in
seemingly tortured movement
Great featherly ropes, apparently
swinging out of nowhere. shed a
pale green cast over the deeper
chasms.
AT 40 feet down, the weight OF
the 25-pound lead sandals and the
70 pounds of weights laced to the
breastplate were gone, nulified
by the pressure. To enter a chasm
you simply stepped in watery
space and floated gently down.
Starfish, which we know on the
beaches as fairly dull looking

out specific legislative sanction.
The second amendment proposed
by the Commission would prohibit
enactment of local laws by the
Legislature which affect the gov
eminent, powers and duties of the
2S counties and aBltimore City.
Counties and Baltimore City now
have a grant of home rule power
available in the Constitution which
is similar to that proposed by the
Sobeloff Commission for cities and
towns. Only Baltimore City and
Montgomery County, however. have
adopted home rule charters. Under
the Sobeloff Commissions proposal,
counties not adopting home rule
charters would gain no additional
right to enact their own laws. They
would operate under general laws
regulating their powers and duties
enacted by the General Assembly.
Legislative Duty
At present, the organization,
powers and duties of most counties
and municipalities are prescribed
by the General Assembly through
local laws which usually apply
only to one county or municipality.
Maryland is one of the fe W
states where majority of bills
passed by the legislature still af-
feet only individual local govern
ments rather than the State as a
whole, the Commission said.
The Commission estimated that
if the two recommended constitu-
tional amendments are adopted,
about so per cent of the bills now
handled each session by the Gen
eral Assembly would disappear.
1t was stated further that the
constitutional changes would give
Legislators more time to consider
matters of Statewide importance
and would free them from excessive
concern over purely local matters.
Further, the Commission added,
responsibility for local matters
would be placed on local officials
rather than on the county delega-
tons in the State legislature.
