Mr.. Hageman said he was not
making any recommendations
as to how the laws should be
changed. He emphasized he
would oppose any bill that
might tend to destroy or
weaken real trade unionism."
He also said he would hesi-
tate to recommend any new
system of security clearance for
communications workers because
he had seen some pretty ter
rible injustices" in other secur-
ity programs.
Mr.. Morris placed in evidence
a letter from Western Union
stating the company was re-
qliired by law to recognize AGA
as the bargaining agent for its
New York employees. The union
has won official recognition as
the bargaining agent in refer

sion by the old CLIO.

tariff claim, Senator Butler said
from October. 1855, through
January. 1856, Switzerland i'm
ported A. per cent more Mary
land tobacco than in the same
period of the preceding year.
For the entire crop year OF

''the Swiss imported 100000
pounds more of our tobacco than
during the crop year 1953-54
Figures for 1954-s5 are TO-
million pounds against 7.6-mil-
lion pounds for the 1953-54 crop

Senator Butler added that
while tobacco exports to Switzer-

Tomorrow is a legal holiday
in Maryland, but there's a wide
difference as to who's going te
observe it.
The day is set aside as Mary
land Day in honor of the 322d
anniversary of the arrival of the
first settlers in the State. Since
the anniversary falls on Sunday,
the holiday will be observed to-
morrow.
For many banks, Offices and
courts it means a day off. Fol-
others it will be business as
usual. Schools will be open.
At the University of Mary
land, a special convocation will
hear Gen. Carlos P. Romulo
Philippine Ambassador to the
United States.

Banks, too, are varied in their
reaction to the holiday. Many
lplan to observe the holiday to-

be open.

Maryland Day marks the land
ing of the Ark and the Dove at
st. Clements Island, st. Marys
County, on March Is, 1884. The
two ships carried the second Lord
Baltimore and his expedition
from England.
One of the factors leading to
the confusion on the holiday
was that it falls in the same
week as Good Friday. Schools
begin their Easter vacations
then, which carry through April
8. Banks will be. closed on Fri
day, as will most of the Offices
except the Montgomery County
Offices. The Montgomery Peo-

will close Friday.
