Maryland Legislature Sees Vetoes Defeated and Repeal Nears
The Maryland Senate passed a Jim Crow repeal on second reading by voice vote, with Senator Shehan seeking reconsideration to record votes but failing 20 to 9. The House already backed repeal, signaling likely Senate approval despite prior opposition. Debate over funds for salary raises and a Maryland Youth Commission were prominent as budget anxieties and staffing costs emerged. The Baltimore County tax power extension for liquor faced strong opposition, with implications for state revenues. Jersey City in the International League defeated Rochester, marking the only Rochester loss in the series.

Lie Urges UN to Pursue Armament Regulation and Disarmament
Secretary General Trygve Lie urged the United Nations to keep pushing for prohibition of atomic weapons and regulation of armaments while pursuing political settlement. He warned that rearmament advances make broad talks seem utopian, but said this committee must be a vital UN undertaking as it seeks to merge atomic energy work with conventional armaments efforts.

State Hunts Funds For Salary Increases
Annapolis. Senate Democrats begin locating funding in the $100 million budget to provide about 14 million dollars in annual raises for state employees and school teachers. They target surplus revenues and unspent special funds to cover the increases without tax hikes, while Governor McKeldin pursues a similar goal. The plan would raise state employee salaries from 120 to 360 dollars per year, with 4.1 million to be allocated from the funds identified.
