House Group
Plans Study Of
State Budget
Maryland Governor
To Ask for Record
$l90 Million Quito,
By the Assoeioted Pres.

BALTIMORE. Jan. 26.-For
the first time in q decade, q
House committee will take its
own close look at budget sub
mitted by a Maryland Governor.
The change starts tonight,
when Gov. McKeldin lays a doc.
ument, expected to involve more
than $3.50 million. before the
Legislature at Annapolis.
He is expected to deliver the
budget message at a joint meet
ing Of the House and Senate.
beginning at 8 pm. The antici-
pated $3.50 million spending
would exceed last years record
outlay by $13 million.
Delegate Logan of Caroline
County, now chairman of the
House Ways and Means Com
mittee. said his 30-member
group will give the budget a fine
screening.
The last time House COM
mittee took such plains was 10
years ago, when Speaker Luber
was majority floor leader.
Left to Senate Before.
Recently, the lower chamber
left the job pretty much in the
hands of the Senate Finance
Committee, with a few members
of the House group sitting in on
hearings and reporting back to
their fellow delegates.
Mr.. Logan said the House
committee plans to go further
than merely conducting its own
hearings.
1--WE also are considering, he
said. picking out the depart
ments with the biggest appropri-
ations and sending subcommit-
tees to review their performance
per dollar"
This would have been impos-
sible in former years, when the
budget indicated only what items
or salaries were covered by ex-
penditures. Under a new form,
it now is required to show the
purposes of expenditures.
In addition, the Legislature
has reserved the right to call
for copy of the budget in the
old form as well.
Road Hearings to Open.
Besides its plan for a detailed
study of the budget, the Ways
and Means Committee faces an
other big assignment tomorrow,
when it opens hearings on the
controversial 12-year highways
proposal of the State Roads
Commission.
Although the commission de-
scribes the plan as a $568 million
proposal, opponents at a pre-
legislative hearing. said it ac-
tually would involve the spend
ing Of almost twice that amount.
The Senate Finance Commit
tee will come to grips with q
potentially explosive phase of the
budget Thursday, when it takes
up the question of raises for
school teachers.
Gov. McKeldin has said he
would provide in his budget for
a $1,172.000 outlay to finance
increases up to $500 for the first
year.
