1956]                  OF THE HOUSE OF DELEGATES                       51

Seldom has a Legislature accomplished more.

The Maryland Port Authority Bill on which you completed your work
today will stand as an outstanding landmark in Maryland progress. Its
good results in a greater, growing Maryland will manifest in the years
and decades ahead, and your descendants will be proud of the parts you
played in its accomplishment.

In the 30-day session, you faced up to major issues. You kept some
untimely legislation from passing. Your action on the Transit seizure
bill, the necessity for which was regretted by all of us, was indicative of
your legislative courage and sense of responsibility.

I wish to commend all of you on the orderly manner in which today's
session was handled, confining your capable actions to essentials, and
eliminating the unnecessary—a demonstration of official efficiency which
will serve as a model for future meetings of the Assembly.

Again with sincere thanks, in which, I am sure, I will be joined by the
people of Maryland, and with highest personal regards for all of you, I am

Theodore R. McKeldin,

Governor.
