What is the reason that you wish to destroy
|
|
2
|
the Orphans Court of 'Baltimore City? With my single
|
|
3
|
mind and my short experience at law, I think experience
|
|
4
|
and some ability is the nain thing when you try to be a
|
|
5
|
lawyer, who wants to change this court? Well, there are
|
|
6
|
some clues. I refer to an article in one of the papers
|
|
7
|
in which it was said, speaking of the famous, or any way
|
|
8
|
you wish to designate it, Bond Commission Report, and
|
|
9
|
the descendants of this report sit upon this Commission.
|

|
Recently there has been a general recognition even among
|
|
11
|
politicians that the recommendation of 1942 had merit.
|
|
12
|
Montgomery County has moved to abolish its court, this
|
|
13
|
through a constitutional amendment adopted in 1964.
|
|
14
|
Of course, that is incorrect on two scores,
|
|
15
|
the report was 1943 and anyone who is able to read, knows
|
|
16
|
that the Orphans Court of Montgomery County has riot
|
|
17
|
been abolished. It has been perpetuated, as Mr. Sykes
|
|
18
|
heard and I heard, forever by a constitutional amendment.
|
|
15
|
Therefore, in Maryland no Orphans Court
|
|
20
|
has been abolished. One of the members of this Commission

|

|
just previous to the election August 16, 1965, Mr. Miles,
