ART. LXXXI] INCORPORATED TOWNS. 659
Declaration of Rights of the Constitution of Maryland, as amended by
Chapter 390 of the Acts of 1914 and adopted by the people of Mary-
land in the General Election of 1915. And the said incorporated towns
shall likewise have the power, anything in their charters granted to
them to the contrary notwithstanding, but subject to the Public General
Laws of the State, to determine the classes of property which shall be
the subject of taxation within their respective jurisdictions and for
their local purposes; provided, however, that they follow the rules of
classification for taxation as established by said Article 15 and any sup-
plementary legislation enacted in conformity therewith; and provided
further that they shall have the right through their appropriate author-
ities, the necessity existing, to change the tax rate fixed by their respec-
tive charters upon the property taxed to the extent of covering any loss
of revenue in case they may determine upon the exemption or partial
exemption of certain classes or sub-classes of property.
