Dear Mr. Speaker:

In accordance with Section 17 of Article II of the Maryland
Constitution, I have vetoed today House Bill 963 and am returning
it to you.

This bill would authorize the Mayor and City Council of Baltimore
to create a debt in the amount of four million dollars. The measure
is a duplicate of Senate Bill 456 which has been signed and is now
Chapter 571 of the 1968 Laws of Maryland.

Sincerely,
(s) Spiro T. Agnew,

Governor.

of indebtedness to be used for the acquisition, by purchase, condemna-
tion or any other legal means, of land or property, or any rights
