course, is not enough. The Mayor of Baltimore gets
|
|

|
25, 000, the Governor gets 15, 000.

JUDGE ADKINS: What do you think would be a
|
|
4
|
reasonable gubernatorial salary in the current scene?
|
|
5
|
MAYOR McKELDIN: $35, 000.

|
MRS. BOTHE: Do you think, Mayor McKeldin,
|
|
7
|
instead of putting a dollar figure in the Constitution,
|
|
8
|
or a minimum dollar figure, that it might be tied to the
|
|
9
|
salary of some other official, say the Governor must make
|
|
10
|
at least as much as the Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals
|
|
11
|
or some other office, so that in case inflation continues,
|
|
18
|
the Constitution will remain realistic?
|
|

|
MAYOR McKELDIN: It should not be in the Con-
|
|
14
|
stitution and nobody should be compared to the Chief Execu-
|
|
15
|
tive of the State of Maryland.
|
|
16
|
MRS. BOTHE: You would have a minimum salary,
|
|
17
|
but not a maximum.
|
|
18
|
MAYOR McKELDIN: No, no.
|
|
19
|
MRS. BOTHE: You would take it out entirely?
|
|
20
|
MAYOR McKELDIN: No, I wouldn't have a minimum
|
|
21
|
or a maximum. I would just let the Legislature decide.
