that these little organisms

BY JOSEPHINE LOWMAN

Without planning to do so
the average woman allows
multitudinous petty obliga-
tons contacts and activities
to clutter up her life. These
attach themselves to her in
weak moments and then cling
for dear life.
Most women do not realize
that this has happened to them
and wonder why they have no
time for all of those things
they have wanted to do for so
long. They take the clutter for
granted as though there is no
such thing as individual choice.
It takes a lot Of nerve and a
lot Of determination to clear
your life of time-and-energy-
demanding activities which
leave you frustrated rather
than vibrant What inspires

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Mar. 10
The Maryland House of Dele
gates has tentatively approved
legislation to outlaw the sale
of crime and sex comic books to
persons under IS.
The lower chamber probably
will take it's final vote on the
measure Monday.
It accepted a favorable report
of its Judiciary Committee on
the matter yesterday, on a voice
vote.
The bill is the second dealing
with comic books to be put be-
fore this session of the Leg
islature. The Judiciary Com
mittee decided to kill the first
one because its language was
thought to be unenforceable.
The new bill was drawn up by
a Judiciary subcommittee in COL
laboration with the Attorney
Generals Office.

Bill to Bon Crime Comic Books

The new measure makes it
unlawful to sell comic books that
exploit actual or fictional deeds
Of violence, bloodshed, lust or
immortality, or which, for a

are obscene, lewd, lascivious,
filthy, indecent or disgusting. -"
Violators would be subject to
fines of from $25 to 5000, Jail
sentences of from 10 days to six
months, or both.
A section of the new bill is
designed to protect the right Of

Meeting for Accord
On Reorganization Of
Planning Unit Set
BY Charles [. Hoffman
stor staff Correspondent

ANNAPOLIS. Mar. l9.-The
Montgomery and Prince Georges
delegations are slated to get to-
gether Monday to iron out pro-
posals for reorganization Of the
Maryland-National Capital Park
and Planning Commission.
Montgomery delegates. still
smarting under bitter attacks
made on their legislative pro-
gram and admittedly trying te
placate those who seek to abolish
the commission. met last night
to seek agreement on proposed
changes.
Chances are-barring a COM
plete turnabout-the delegation
will retain the bi-county regional
character of the commission
while turning over strong control
of the commissions members
from Montgomery to the County
Council.
1--WE ran on a platform Of re-
tanning the bi-county structure
while putting as much control
as possible in the County Coun-
Gil" Delegation Chairman Blail
Lee III said.
Retort to GUIDE
Mr.. Lees statement was q
retort to a proposal from Dele
gate Gilbert Guide, the only Re-
publican on the delegation who
in a formal letter to the chair.
man, said he wanted separate
planning commission exclusively
for Montgomery County.
The delegation last night
agreed on several changes. in
Guiding one that would exclude
not only Rockville but also
Gaithersburg and Washington
Grove from jurisdiction of the
proposed expanded area Of the
commission.
Other towns that sought the
exclusion so they could handle
their own planning and coming
will get this authority under the
agreement.
Another major change would
direct the council to set the ad-
ministrative tax rate in April
instead of during the legislative
month Of May. as originally pro-
posed.
Emergency States Probable
This proposal probably will be
made emergency legislation sc
that the planning commission
will have to submit its presen.
proposed budget calling for q
Scent tax rate to the County
Council next month before it,
fiscal year begins May /.
Other changes would permit
the council to amend subdivision
regulations on its own volition
and to direct the Montgomery
members to act as planning
arm for the Council without
direction from the full bi-county
commission.
The delegation is holding of
a decision as to whether it will
report favorably its own bill
abolishing the Upper County
Planning Commission. That job
may be left up to the County
Council.
