where additional research or the analysis of
data is badly needed, to review the available
resources to perform such analysis, and to
recommend the approach to be used. The
Council is further to improve scientific edu-
cation, including identification of well-de-
fined problem areas for studies to be per-
formed by graduate students, particularly
those studies which will be of value to the
State, to act as a liaison with scientists of
other states or agencies in coordinating ap-
proaches to common scientific problems,
and to provide scientific and technological
advice to the principal Executive Depart-
ments, at the Governor's request or with
his approval.

The Maryland Health and Higher Edu-
cation Facilities Authority was created by
Chapter 408, Acts of 1970. The Authority
consists of nine members, of whom the
Treasurer of Maryland serves ex officio, and
eight members appointed by the Governor
for five year terms. Members may be re-

interest. The Authority was created to pro- |
vide certain hospitals and institutions for

purposes of the Maryland Health and Higher
Facilities Authority Act of 1970 (Code
