BY 1900 Maryland receipts
were $3,622,493 and expenses
S3,480,534 while the population
was 1,18S,044.
Goldstein said in 1862 the esti-
mated Maryland income should
be SSH, 100000 while the outgo
should reach S520000,o00 with
the difference to be made up by
a $13,000,000 General Fund sur
plus. He also said the popula-
ton should approach 100000
by the last part of 1862.
In comparing the growing Of
banking institutions in the
State, he said resources in State
Banking institutions went from
$4,021, 900 in 1920 to 1868, 900

parsons for Montgomery Coun-
ty, including operating budgets
for county government in 194C,
1850, 1860 and 1861, as well as
total resources in State and Ma
tional banks in the county.
He touched on governmental
services provided for by tax dol
lars and cited education, high
ways, health, welfare and pub
lie safety as among the most
costly and most necessary.

lation continues to swell every

Chamber
Opposes
Rights Act

A resolution opposing the
Equal Service Act requiring all
private places Of business in
Montgomery County to inte-
CRATE has been passed by the
Board of Directors of the Be-
thesda-C Chevy Chase Chamber of
Commerce, meeting at the Ken
wood Country Club.
Copies of the chambers
resolution have been sent to the
County Council and the Human
Relations Commission.
Citing that the Commission,
to whom the Equal Service Act
resolution was submitted, has
been in existence less than a
year, the chambers resolution
points out that it has made
considerable progress toward
Graduating racial prejudice.
In addition, the petition says
that the signers believe in the
right of businessmen to select
the customers where their "own
money" is invested. 1t finally
points out that the County At
torney's office has declared
that the county does not have
the power to pass ordinances in
the field of race relations, which
is reserved to the State.
"The Bethesda Chevy Chase
Chamber of Commerce" the
petition concludes, urges the
Commission and the County
Council not to approve or adopt
this type of coercive legisla-
ton"
