Annapolis, Maryland, June 1,1973.

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 Constitution,
I have today vetoed House Bill 5.

This bill amends Sections 17-101 of Article 66˝ of the Annotated Code
of Maryland to increase the penalty for driving while ability is impaired.

Senate Bill 1046, which was enacted by the General Assembly and signed
by me on May 7, 1973, accomplishes the same purposes as House Bill 5.
Senate Bill 1046 also modified several other of the penalties contained
in the same Sections 17-101, which modifications would not be given
effect were I to sign House Bill 5.

Because of the inconsistency between the two bills, and because the
enactment of Senate Bill 1046 renders House Bill 5 unnecessary, I have
decided to veto House Bill 5.

Sincerely,

MARVIN MANDEL,

Governor.
