appointment of a post-convention committee on public

2

information.

3

In other words, if you recall the Chairman of

4

the Rules Committee's statement at the very inception of

5

this Convention. There was a statement that all committees

6

would die when this Convention would adjourn sine die.

7

That is actually the fact insofar as our committee is

8

concerned, and there will be a post-convention public

9

information committee appointed under the terms of this

10

resolution.

11

The resolution also authorizes the president to

12

appoint such other committees as he deems necessary to

13

wind up the affairs of the Convention. The president is

14

also authorized in a similar fashion, as he is authorized

15

under the rules of the Convention, to secure a staff and

16

offices to continue the affairs of the Convention until

17

the referendum on May 14.

18

Finally, the president is authorized to request

19

additional monies from the State of Maryland. The

20

Committee on Public Information urges the adoption of

21

this resolution.
