EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT

Annapolis, Md., May 7, 1968.

The Honorable Marvin Mandel Speaker of the House of Delegates State House Annapolis, Maryland

Dear Mr. Speaker:

In accordance with Section 17 of Article II of the Maryland Constitution, I have vetoed today House Bill 765 and am returning it to you.

This bill would reduce the probationary period for certain State employees from six months to ninety days. Several of the heads of some of the larger Executive departments have contacted my office to express their opposition to the measure. The Commissioner of Personnel informs me that he does not "oppose" the bill, but points out that the Personnel Advisory Council recommends that the present period be retained. Since
