May 29, 1978
Honorable Steny H. Hoyer
President of the Senate
State House
Annapolis, Maryland 21404

Dear Mr. President:

In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the
Maryland Constitution, I have today vetoed Senate Bill 339-

This bill authorizes the creation of a Baltimore City
debt of up to $1,000,000 to finance improvements to
city—owned market buildings.

House Bill 523, which was enacted by the General
Assembly and signed by me on April 11, 1978, accomplishes
the same purpose.

Therefore it is unnecessary for me to sign Senate Bill
339.

Sincerely,
