At the same time, initial phases of construction of the Civic Center auditorium should be done then. The Mayor and Council hope that the auditor ium and Civic Center, the new water filtration plant, and other new municipal facilities will prove a draw to the conven tioneers. Housing might prove a worry. There are only two or three motels close enough to the city to really convenient, probably providing less than 200 accom modations at one time. Nevertheless, the invitation, one of three resolutions passed at Tuesday’s conference session of the Mayor and City Council, went out. The other two resolutions were (1) one that urged the Maryland Municipal League to study possibility of permitting payment of municipal statutory boards (Planning Commission, Board of Appeals): and (2) another asking action of the MML to give municipalities authority to govern speed of trains through cities.

Constitution, Torcaso conceivably could be elected president, senator or congress man, but he can not be appoint ed a notary public under Mary land law. Prescott made the distinction, however, that Tomaso’s beliefs were not in question—rather his refusal to take the oath of office. And he said that the sec tion of the U. S. Constitution cited by Torcaso's attorneys specifically applies to a Federal officer, and has been so upheld by appeals courts.
