HARRY HUGHES, Governor                                      3817

May 27, 1986
The Honorable Melvin A. Steinberg
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 841.

This bill repeals the requirement that the Chief of Police
in Baltimore County issue carnival, bazaar, and raffle permits to
bona fide volunteer fire, religious, fraternal, civic, veterans,
athletic, and charitable organizations in that county.

Senate Bill 623, an emergency bill, was passed by the
General Assembly and signed by me on April 29, 1986. Senate Bill
623 made changes in the law identical to Senate Bill 841, as well
as altering the definition of the types of civic organizations
which may conduct certain gaming activities in Baltimore County.
Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign Senate Bill 841.

Sincerely,
Harry Hughes
Governor

raffle permit to certain organizations for use in that

permits in Baltimore County.
