If such an amendment is not offered or if such ''
an amendment is offered and rejected, there would be no

If such an amendment is offered and the amend-
ment is approved, then obviously there would be a Board of
Public Works provided for in the Constitution.
Delegate Gallagher.
DELEGATE GALLAGHER: Mr. Chairman, a point of
p arliamentary inquiry:
If the motion to reconsider fails, is it not
correct that the matter is once and for all and forever dis-
posed of?
THE CHAIRMAN: I don't think that is accurate.
It is too general a statement. In the first place, in
the Committee of the Whole -- the Chair doesn't think you
are limited to one motion to reconsider in the Committee
of the Whole, but entirely apart from that, this is
only a Committee of the Whole, and this is not binding on
the Convention.
In other words, this motion is not what is
commonly called a clincher.
