The Unemployment 'Compensation Board was created by Chapter
1 of the Acts of the General Assembly, Special Session of 1936, as
amended by Acts of the General Assembly of Maryland of 1937.

The three members of the Board were designated by the Legisla-
ture for respective terms of six years, four years and two years.
Upon expiration of the term of each member, the Governor shall
appoint his successor for a term of six years.

The Unemployment Compensation Board is charged with the duty
of administering the Unemployment Compensation Law, under which
two coordinate divisions shall be established: The State of Maryland
Employment Service and the Unemployment Compensation Division.
The Unemployment Compensation Division shall, first, collect contri-
butions from employers covered under the Unemployment Compen-
sation Law and, secondly, after January 3, 1938, shall make payment
of benefits to eligible individuals, that is, those who have accumulated
certain wage credits and become unemployed through no fault of
their own.

The Employment Service, affiliated with the United States Employ-
ment Service, Department of Labor, shall establish and maintain
free public employment offices for the purpose of finding work for
unemployed individuals and shall receive claims for unemployment
compensation benefits, forwarding such claims to the Unemployment
Compensation Division.

The expense of administering the Unemployment Compensation
Division is not a burden upon the employers contributing to the
unemployment compensation fund, or upon the taxpayers of the State,
as the funds for administrative expenses are supplied by the (Federal)
Social Security Board. The expense of administering the Maryland
State Employment Service is borne in a large measure by the Social
Security Board and in part by the United States Department of
Labor, with an appropriation by the State of Maryland.

COMMISSION ON LAWS RELATING TO COUNTY GOVERNMENT
AND MUNICIPAL CORPORATIONS.

tions, and to recommend to the Governor and the General Assembly
the enactment of such legislation relating thereto as said Commission
might deem desirable. It is required to submit its report with recom-
mendations to the Governor and General Assembly not later than
January 15, 1939, with a draft of such Acts as may be proposed to
carry out its recommendations.
The members of this Commission are:

Hon. Henry C. Whiteford, Chairman......Whiteford, Harford County, Md.
Mr. George A. Mahone, Secretary,
4509 Liberty Heights Ave., Baltimore
