The Commission was created to advise the Governor and State officials on matters arising from. the peaceful application of atomic energy.

Vol., 1968 Sapp., Art. 41, sec. 359A). OCEAN CITY CONVENTION HALL COMMISSION Chairman: J. Marshall Stewart, 1973 Albert Berger, 1970; John B. Lynch, 1971; J. Warren Frame, 1972; G.
