MarYIand's
Driver Fund

BALTIMORE. Oct. 5 CAP)-
Maryland's fund for uninsured
car owners operated at a deficit
for the fifth straight year of its
existence.
Claims against the fund now
total $2,954.200 more than has
been paid into It. The deficit
for the year ended June 80 was
1854. 900. according to a report
distributed yesterday.
Motor vehicles owners with
out insurance an insurance
companies paid S1,092,511 into
the Unsatisfie d Claim and
judgment Fund the past fiscal
year. 1t distributed $1,786,O6O,
most of it to owners with La
bility insurance who were in
accidents and couldn't collect
from the other driver.
All owners are required to
either show proof of insurance
or pay a special fee in order to
obtain license plates. In an eff
fort to keep the fund solvent,
the fee for uninsured owners
has risen from So to $40 since
the plan was started by the
State in 1858.
The board of managers will
meet October II and probably
consider raising the special fee
a ain. Insurance companies
also are charged a percentage
Of their premiums.
The continuing deficit h a s.
prompted talk of also charging
insured motorists a special fee.
There also have been sugges-
tons to discontinue the fund
and instead require every mo-
tor vehicle owner to carry a.
minimum of liability insurance
A special committee Of the
Maryland Legislative Council is
presently reviewing the fund
and may have some recommen-
dations for changes at the next
session of the General Assem-
bly, in February.

fair share Of the revenues. The
Democrats viewed the tax
somewhat more reluctantly and
with the reservation that IL
should be adopted as a last re-

Mr.. Farley and Mrs. McDiar-

the revenue bonds of its nu-

This, they contend would allow
a lower interest rate on the

extra seat was added last year
when the legislature reappor-

ber of crimes of violence, this
Is evidence of unsoundness OF

Judge Bastian concluded that
the Court of Appeals has nc
jurisdiction over sentencing
and. he added, surely we have
no power to direct the District
Court to exercise a power which
is purely discretionary"

of The Almighty-he sits in

But more Importantly, for the
offender and for society, in
sentencing, the judge must
consider a program of rehabili-
tation designed to preclude, so
far as current learning can
furnish a guide, a repetition of
the crime.
ITO this end, the Congress
has placed several aids at the
disposal Of the sentencing Judge
to assist him in making his
awful decision"
These aids, Judge Wright
noted, are probation officers
who make pre-sentence inves-
legations; doctors who conduct
pre-sentence mental examina-
tons and the Legal Psychiatric
Services which a statute pro-
vides may be called to help the
sentencing judge.
There is no indication here
that the court, in imposing as
it did the maximum penalty
provided by the statute, made
use of any of the aids in SEN
fencing placed at its disposal
by the Congress of the United
States"
