Maryland Senate Case
Divides Appeals Court

He said that even with the
addition of l9 seats to Mary
lands House last May for met
ropolitan areas considerable
disparities still exist" in voting
power between the urban areas
and smaller counties.
He also agreed with attorneys
for the Maryland Committee
for Fair Presentation that the
granting Of additional Sena-
tors to Baltimore City weakened
the analogy between Maryland's
Senate and that Of the United
States Senate.
The high court majority said,
I'VE think a complete justifica-
ton for election of State Sem
ators on a county bssis is to
be found in the historical prece-
dents cited. The idea Of a
bicameral legislature, with the
upper branch selected on a

certified public accountant to
go over the books.
Mr.. Gaegler noted that taxes,
improvements and tobacc c o
fertilizer have been bought for
the properties.
Henry Babcock, representing
the Prince Georges Bar As
sociation which brought the
complaint to court, said the
bar docs not contend there
was any miSappropriation."
Noting that an explanation
had been filed for $4,345, Judge
Gray said Mr.. Duley should
have time to explain the rest.
Some Vacancies
Mr.. Gaegler later said there
may have been a mixup in re-
ceipts and bank statements for
the Griffith estate because the
houses were unoccupied at
times and rent payments were
not always banked Immediately
Explaining another Orphans
Court charge that he had
failed to properly present a win
in another case, Mr.. Duley
testified it took considerable
time to work out arrangements
agreeable to all heirs, and even
longer to get all parties to come
to his office to sign necessary
papers.

ments. Mr.. Griffith, of Upper
Marlboro, died six years ago.
The Orphans Court made
the complaint against Mr.. Du-
ley last July. charging that he
had been dilatory in the ad-
minstration of the Griffith es-
tate by not showing the dis
position of $500 in rentals
from the estate properties.
WilIful Delay Denied
Mr.. Duley. an Upper Marl-
boro attorney for IA years, said
that while progress in this and
two other cases cited by the
Orphans Court was slow, he
did not willfully delay proceed

Mr.. Duley contended the Or

counting until the properties
had been sold for the heirs. Re-
gardless, he later filed an ac-
counting explaining the dis
position of $4,345.

Fairfax School
BondsFavored

With school construction un-
der a 1860 bond sale ''practi-
cally complete" Fairfax County
school officials warned last
night they may seek a $50 mil
lion bond issue in 1868.
The funds will be needed to
finance construction of class
rooms needed in the 1866
school year and later, said Bar
ry Morris, assistant superin-
tendent for finance. Speaking
before the County Council of
rent-Teacher Associations,
he said construction between
l965-l970 should proceed at a
pace of at least $72 million a
year.
That would provide annually
a new high school, intermedi-
ate school and 5l2 new elemen-
tary schools, he said. These
will be needed to house 5000
new children who estimates in
dicate will enter school each
year for the rest of the decade.
Supt. Earl c. Funderburg has
said that projects built under
the $26 million bond issue OF
1860 will be practically COM
pleted" by next summer. AT
the time of the 1860 bond
referendum it was thought that
the money would last until
about 1864.
Mr.. Morris told the PTA
council that it should lose nc
time studying a new bond issue
He suggested that the bonds
should finance 80 per cent OF
the program. Current revenue
Mr.. Morris said. could supply
the other 20 per cent.

ANNAPOLIS, Sept. rs (AP).
The majority of Maryland's
Court of Appeals said yester-
day that makeup Of the State
Senate on a county basis is
rooted in history. follows the
plan of the Federal Congress
and does not conflict with any
thing in the l4th Amendment.
The opinion was filed in am
plification of a 4-3 decision by
the States highest court on
July % which held that the
makeup of the Senate need not
be related to population. The
House of Delegates had already
been reapportioned to give met
ropolitan areas more seats.
Dissents were filed by Chief
Judge Frederick w. Bruno and
Judges Stedman Prescott and
Charles Marbury.
The majority opinion, writ
ten by Judge William L. Hen
derson. took note of arguments
that the Maryland Legislature
abandoned the plan of geo.
graphical representation for the
State Senate when it gave Bal
timore City additional Senators.
The fact that the original
plan Zone seat for each county,
has been modified in one in
stance does not require that it
be totally abandoned" Judge
Henderson wrote.
He said there were reasons
for such a distinction in Balti-
more City's role in State af-
fairs and that around the turn
of the century "it mustered
enough political power to en-
large its representation" The
city now has six Senators.
Power Contest"
"The instant case is a contest
for political power between the
larger and the smaller counties.
and Baltimore City is not con-
cerned," Judge Henderson said.
Judges Hall Hammond, VII
liam r. Horney and James
MacGill concurred.
The majority of the high
court differed sharply over
what the Supreme Court may
have meant in recent actions
ordering further proceedings on
reapportionment in Michigan
and New York.
The majority said it could
attach no positive significance
to the actions, land the final
determination must await fur
ther light from the Supreme
Court"
Chief Judge Bruno said he
thought it was clear that in
ordering further proceedings
on q Michigan Senate case the
Supreme Court meant that
the mere fact one house of a
State Legislature is apportioned
strictly in accordance with
population does not immunize
the apportionment of the other
from attack under the 14th
Amendment"
Cities "DisparitieS"
He said the Michigan Senate
and House were both appor-
toned much more nearly in
line with population than is
Maryland's Legislature.
