'Section 19. And be it further enacted, That at the general
election to be held in this State on November 6, 1917, this
Act shall be submitted to the legal and qualified voters of the
State for their approval or disapproval. Upon each of the
ballots used at said election throughout the State there shall
be printed in a separate column the title of this Act, and
underneath said title there shall be printed on separate lines,
with a space opposite for the voter's mark, the words "For
Baltimore City Extension" and "Against Baltimore City Ex-

Act were for Baltimore city extension the Governor shall,
by his proclamation, declare that this Act, having^ received
a majority of the votes cast thereon, has been approved by
the people of Maryland, and thereupon this Act shall go into
effect. But if a majority of the votes cast as said election

effect. '"
