THE PRESIDENT: Would you state the nature of
the personal privilege?
DELEGATE HARRY TAYLOR: A funny thing happened
to me on the way to the Senate, or actually in the Senate
Chamber yesterday after the meeting adjourned. I was
in there to listen to the session on Personal Rights
and The Preamble of the Constitution, and I took with
me one of my most valuable possessions. That was the
final report of the Constitutional Convention Commission,
which I believe before this session is over will probably
become a bible of the Convention. I put it on a desk
in the Senate, and I moved from that desk to better ob-
serve and hear the witnesses; and shortly thereafter, I
turned and my bible was gone. The session was on civil
rights, and I hope that whoever did take this off the
desk will give equal time to property rights, because
these volumes are not yet available in great supply. I
understand they will be available starting Monday of
next week, but I think it is a tool that I need very
badly. I would like to have it returned.
Secondly, your Honor, Mr. President - |
