Power extension opposed by Eastern Shore officials
Easton Oct 19 strong opposition surfaced at a Legislative Council meeting with the Eastern Shore County Commissioners Association over a bill to broaden County Commissioners powers. Members Stromeyer and Dick questioned the measure, citing internal council debates and possible local jam causes. The bill would extend county control over sheriffs, Orphans' Court, finances, and real estate actions, though sponsors argued it would clear local business from state schedules.
