DELEGATE CLAGETT: Mr. Chairman, I get the
feeling that we are being whittled on or whittled at by the
various proposals that are coming before us now, and I
cannot but sort of amusedly observe that with my name
up at the top of the second column, that it is easily to be
seen when I have to vote against a good friend like Delegate
Adkins or one whom I admire as much as I do Delegate Dorsey,
and the proposer of the motion or amendment, Delegate Kirk-
land. It only prolongs the agony. However, there was
one resolution that I made before I came down here. That
was to vote my conscience, and to disregard friendships
that are being made and friendships that will grow warmer
as we go through the various sessions of this chamber.
I still feel that where we have a committee that
has battled as hard as this committee obviously has
and under the leadership of a chairman as able as he is,
he is Just not going to be whittled. We have got
to stand with him. I would like somehow to get to the
question of how we can cast a vote for the 105-55 and go
home.
