part of the Constitution a provision that was absolutely
meaningless, his conflict of laws provision. It seems to
me that this is an excellent provision. It means something.
It will give poeple notice of the laws and I think it will be
very helpful to all people in the enforcement of the laws.

DELEGATE LORD: Mr. Chairman, the troublesome
aspect of this amendment as I see it is the second sentence. I am very much in sympathy with the principal and agree with
Delegate Willoner and Delegate Grant. As I read the second
sentence, among the objections mentioned by Judge Henderson
was the delay in compilation. I think another valid objection is that it seems
to me it puts the General Assembly in the position of
obstructing acts that local subdivions have sought in there
wisdom to make effective immediately, and I suggest this
could be tampered with and puts the General Assembly in the
catbird's seat and unless the second sentence were struck, I would have to oppose it.
THE CHAIRMAN: Any delegate desire to speak in
favor? Delegate McDonald? |
