SECTION 2. AND BE IT FURTHER ENACTED, That this Act shall
take effect July 1, 1986 and shall be applicable to all taxable
years beginning after December 31, 1985.

May 27, 1986
The Honorable Benjamin L. Cardin
Speaker of the House of Delegates
State House
Annapolis, Maryland 21404

Dear Mr. Speaker:

In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland
Constitution, I have today vetoed House Bill 52.

This bill requires the Department of Health and Mental
Hygiene to promote the use of existing adult day care centers or
to promote the development of additional day care centers to care
for all elderly, including persons with Alzheimer's Disease and
related disorders.

Senate Bill 131, which was passed by the General Assembly
and signed by me on May 13, 1986, accomplishes the same purpose.
Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign House Bill 52.

Sincerely,
Harry Hughes
Governor
