MR. BROOKS: I would like to return to the
|
|
2
|
question and put it in a little different context by
|
|
5
|
giving this thought background, that actually the
|
|
4
|
structure of government in a modern society is more
|
|
5
|
regulated, the heart of it is more likely found in the
|
|
6
|
budgetary process than elsewhere in the Constitution,
|
|
7
|
and a few comments were made concerning the fact the
|
|
8
|
Federal Government is taking more interest in educa-
|
|
9
|
tion.
|
|
10
|
Under the Federal system, however, it is
|
|
11
|
interesting to note that education is altogether part
|
|
12
|
of the executive function and is regulated by the
|
|
13
|
Executive Department of the government. Under the
|
|
14
|
present Maryland Constitution, the significant aspects
|
|
15
|
of the budgetary provisions would indicate that educa-
|
|
16
|
tion is somewhat separated from the control of the
|
|
17
|
executive branch which would really raise the question
|
|
18
|
as to whether of not it should be recommended that
|
|
19
|
education be established as a fourth branch of govern-
|
|
20
|
ment, and that is really the crucial issue, probably,
|
|
21
|
at the heart o£ the natter, whether or not education
|
