The proposals here are almost a perpetuation
of the present law. A later section proposes in felony
cases that there be an absolute right of removal. In
misdemeanor cases and there are very serious cases of
misdemeanor involving very serious incarceration, lhi»
would still be a matter of discretion. How could anything
be more absurd to say where a man's freedom is at stake it
is in the discretion of the Court, but where a man's
property is at stake, there is an absolute right of removal'*
I would like to earnestly request that the Memberii
of this Convention support the amendment.
DELEGATE CLARK: Anyone desire to speak against
the amendment?
Delegate Raley.
DELEGATE RALEY: A point of inquiry. I somewhere
got lost. We have a Scanlan amendment and we have a
Wi iloner amendment that I think has been discussed but not
distributed. Which one are we talking about? What one
are we going to talk about? Which one are we going to
vote on?
DELEGATE CLARK: The Scanlan amendment. No. 12,
