Maryland asks boost for flood repair bond fails
Annapolis May 7 The $50 000 flood repair bond requested by Gov Nice was rejected by the House Ways and Means committee as the special session ended. Instead about $500 000 from the 1930 bond issue was freed for flood work without raising the tax rate. The committee cited fiscal experts and noted $43 000 of the 1937 snow and flood fund was spent on salaries, with $150 000 redirected, influencing the decision. The 1936 $1 500 000 bond issue had raised over $1.6 million.
