SPIRO T. AGNEW, Governor                      1663

This bill would reduce the total amount of debt which the Mayor
and City Council of Baltimore are authorized to create under Chapter
9 of the 1944 Laws of Maryland. The measure is a duplicate of Senate
Bill 450, which has been signed and is now Chapter 565 of the 1968
Laws of Maryland.

Sincerely,

(s) Spiro T. Agnew

Governor.
