Convention taken into consideration the possibility of
asking the Federal Government to have an earlier census
so we will not have to fight this thing out twice in two or
three years? I understand, this is secondhand, I under-
stand it is possible for the Federal Government to have an
early census. If I am right or wrong, I do not know.
THE CHAIRMAN: The answer to your question, I
believe, was given by Delegate Gallagher in his presenta-
tion of the Committee Report. I think he said the matter
had been considered and was still under consideration by
his Committee; is that correct?
DELEGATE GALLAGHER: That is correct. The
cost is 25 cents per person. We know there is a million
dollars involved. We are looking for other ways to make
the decision of the Constitution applicable to 1970. If
we want to find that way, it may well be that the 35-105
figure will be applied to the 1967 census figure which
Judge Henderson suggested it could be or may await 1974.
That is something that the Committee has yet to work out
because of the problems involved in determining when the
information will be available or what other information |
