Ritchle, assisted by a bevy of attractive women, including the governor's mother, entertained the members of the Maryland press at the urday. - Upward of ffty editors of county nnewspapers were present. Preceding a delightful luncheon, t! governor made an {mpressive add upon the work and plans of the staf government. The governor sald that, in his opinion, no county press in the country was more ably edited than that of Maryland, and declared that pers was over 150,000 and that their influence on public sentiment was prouounced.

Speaking of the automobile gusoline tax imposed for etate road malnte- nance, and the bill now before Con- gress to impose a similar tax in the Dilfidlrlcl of Columbla, Gov. Ritchle said: 'he matter of most interest in this (the state highway) department now is the gasoline tax imposed for state road maintenance. At present, the roads are maintained from the pre ceeds of the automobile licens which are based on horse po A tax on gasoline is much fairer, be- es the burden of maln- upon all who use proportion in which The tax has been enteen etates, Mar: land having adopted it in 1 The distinctive feature about our tax is a provision that the amount collected from it shall, beginning January 1 1924, be applied to reduce the hors power license fees. o “On the basis of receipts to dal he Maryland tax, at 2 cents per gallon, will” vield enough to reduce the license fees. which are now 60 cents per horse power, to 26 cents per horse Taking the example of a car of twenty-three horse power, this means that the 19231 cense fee of $13.80 will, in 1924, be ect of Increased Tax. “An _increage in the gasolie tax from 2 cents to 3'; cents per gallon would enable the state to charge no license fee at all. 1 am disposed tu think that the next legislature should wholesaler works admirab venture to believe that most moto ts do not even know they are pa. g it. “The Maryland gasoline tax, in con- nection with a 11 ax for the Dis- trict. of Columbia. a bill for which 25 been” favorably reported in Con- gress, will-render it. unnecessary. to require Digtrict cars any longer to have a Marylapnd license when they come into ary Marylapd cars to haye s DI they go to Washington, .and ‘will e able-us to have reciprocity i, th ewbject ‘between Marylind and the District of Columbia. - I have al- ready assured the District authori- ties “that upon the sage of the District gasoline tax bill thorize reciprocity effect 1, 1921. This will end a 1nn§ ing source of contreversy an tion irrita. State Legislation Discussed. - The governor declared -that state. reorganization and fewer elec- tion laws enaeted by the 1822 session of the legislature were, perhaps, the most - far-reaching which that body has ever passed in a goveromen way., The .former revoluntionjzes the machinery for performing 1.I|e state’s departmental work. - The lat. ter revolutionizes a long-establl: ed politiczl order.

The reason lies largely in the more l'attractive return_which ~other pro- fessions have offered.
