A Sacrifice of Legislative Quality
Even in times of unprecedented
prosperity such as these, there are
number of isolated areas in

the nomenclature of depressed

Maryland has been less severe than

However, last week, in the twi-
light of the Saith Congress, Senator
Fulbright of Arkansas proposed
sweeping amendments which had
the effect of tearing the CUTS" from
Senate Bill 1868. The runaway
shop protection was removed,
thereby encouraging the creation
of even more depressed areas. Also
eliminated were the vital provi-
sions which gave depressed areas
advantages in obtaining govern
ment contracts. Whereas Cumber-
land, for example, could have re-
ceived Federal contracts in spite
of Arkansas lower labor cost,
under the Fulbright amendments,
Arkansas competitive advantage
would prevail. So crippled, this i'm
portant bill, if enacted, would have
destroyed many of the high stand
ards and working conditions for
which Maryland wOrkingmen and
women have sought so long to
achieve.
The contentious that this was a
pro-labor bill served only to pre-
serve the shell of an otherwise
constructive measure intended to
assist all depressed areas uniform
ly With the CUTS" thus removed,
/ voted against Senate Bill 1868,
for in my judgment, as approved by
the Senate, it fell woefully short
of correcting a serious problem.
Often. in the rush for adjournment,
quality of Legislation is sacrificed
for mere quantity. However, this
bill failed to pass in the House of
Representatives giving the Con-
gress an opportunity next January
to enact a realistic, equitable de-
pressed area program.
