1

THE CHAIRMAN: How about the item veto?

2

SENATOR HUGHES: I wouldn't be in favor of it,

3

except in capital improvements.

4

THE CHAIRMAN: You would be in favor of it

5

in capital improvements?

6

SENATOR HUGHES: Yes, sir.

7

DELEGATE KIRCHER: Suppose we put a 30-day

8

limitation on the Governor to veto or take some action

9

on bills and make them into law? As we had this year,

10

the Governor came down with bronchial pneumonia and had

11

a bad lung or something. Suppose we had a Governor who

12

would suffer a heart attack two days after the General

13

Assembly adjourned. Would everything the General

14

Assembly did go down the drain?

15

DELEGATE HANDEL: No. It would become law,

16

unless he vetoed it.

17

THE CHAIRMAN: Gentlemen, we said we were

18

going to quit at 9:45 and we are a Commission of our

19

word. You were wonderful to be here today.

20

DELEGATE MANDEL; You see the benefit of

21

having a constitutional limit on sessions?
