EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT

Annapolis, Md., May 28, 1969.
Honorable Thomas Hunter Lowe
Speaker of the House of Delegates
State House
Annapolis, Maryland

Dear Mr. Speaker:

In accordance with Article II, Section 17, of the Maryland Consti-
tution, I have today vetoed House Bill 91 and am returning it to you.

This Bill provides that whenever property rented for a term of not
more than seven years shall become untenantable by reason of certain
specified causes, the tenancy shall be terminated and liability for rent
shall cease.

I am informed by the Attorney General's office that the Bill is con-
stitutionally defective. For the reasons given in the attached copy of the
opinion from the Attorney General's office, which is to be considered a
part of this message, I believe that the measure must be vetoed.

Sincerely,

/s/ Marvin Mandel,
Governor.

Read and Journalized.

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL

May 8, 1969.

The Honorable Marvin Mandel
Governor of Maryland
State House
Annapolis, Maryland 21404

Re: House Bill 91
Dear Governor:
