A House bill for a $50,000 inquiry into the Maryland Roads Commission passed the House 17 to 27 and moves to the Senate, which has rejected a similar measure thrice. The debate touched on alleged contracts and kickbacks tied to the Baltimore Harbor tunnel project, with fiscal impact estimates and calls for broader investigations into the roads program.

Running on all fours cures backache says Hal Boyle
Hal Boyle writes from New York about a columnist replying to Dr James A Tabey of Newtown Conn. The piece humorously recounts Boyle trying life on all fours after a doctor blamed posture for back pain. He notes weight loss improved vision and less social drinking but employer policy forces him to sit at a desk. He asks how civilization shapes health and jokes about the daybed of work.
