THE CHAIRMAN: We cannot do so
without the action of the Committee of the
Whole.
DELEGATE NEEDLE: I so move.
THE CHAIRMAN: We still are dis-
cussing the section. Why do you not at
least start that amendment in the process
of being printed.
DELEGATE NEEDLE: Fine.
THE CHAIRMAN: Can you get some-
body to take care of it? Just a second.
Chief Page, will you please have a page
go see if they can get Mr. Benson to come
to the chamber and see Mr. Needle im-
mediately?
Mr. Needle, Mr. Benson will come here,
if you will stay in the chamber.
Is Delegate Barrick in the room?
DELEGATE BARRICK: Yes, sir.
THE CHAIRMAN: Earlier Delegate
Barrick had indicated that he desired to
make an amendment to the amendment, and
the Chair asked him to delay a while. I
would have to give priority to Delegate
Barrick's amendment over Delegate
Needle's.
Just a second, Delegate Barrick.
Delegates Burgess and Burdette, if you
still would desire to offer your Amendment
AZ originally written as amendment to
Amendment No. 14, the Chair advise you
that you would have to offer it as an
amendment to Amendment No. 21 before
Amendment No. 21 is adopted.
Delegate Burgess.
DELEGATE BURGESS: What we would
prefer to do, Mr. Chairman, is to withhold
that amendment until we see the outcome of
the consideration of Amendment No. 21.
THE CHAIRMAN: If Amendment No.
21 is adopted, you will not be able to offer
your amendment. If Amendment No. 21 is
rejected, you will be able to offer your
amendment, but not in its present form. It
will have to be rewritten as an amendment
to section 7.
DELEGATE BURGESS: All right, we
would take the latter course, then, Mr.
Chairman, in the event Amendment No. 21
would fail.
THE CHAIRMAN: Would you please
have someone be preparing the amendment
in proper form now so that it can be ready
for us?

Delegate Barrick.
DELEGATE BARRICK: My amendment
is a simple one. It is not printed, but I
would hope the Committee would eccept it
without it being printed. That is merely to
take out the word "general" in line 11.
THE CHAIRMAN: Delegate Barrick
would like to amend the Amendment No.
21 by striking the word "general" out of
line 11.
The amendment is not printed.
Is there any objection to considering the
amendment in the absence of its being
printed?
Delegate Scanlan.
DELEGATE SCANLAN: What amend-
ment was that?
THE CHAIRMAN: Amendment No. 21
is the amendment before you. Delegate Bar-
rick would like to submit an amendment to
that amendment to take the word "general"
out of line 11. The amendment is not
printed. If there is objection, it cannot be
considered at this time.
Delegate Scanlan?
DELEGATE SCANLAN: I have no ob-
jection to that amendment. It seems to me,
as Delegate Hanson said before, it is a mat-
ter that the Style Committee was going to
work on anyway. If he wants to put it as
a formal amendment, I would not object.
THE CHAIRMAN: Delegate James.
DELEGATE JAMES: If this amend-
ment prevails, and I would like to get the
intention —
THE CHAIRMAN: You mean Delegate
B ar rick's?
DELEGATE JAMES: Yes, I would like
to get the import of it. If there were a con-
flict between the local law, which is what
this would permit, and the local charter,
which would prevail?
THE CHAIRMAN: Delegate Barrick?
DELEGATE BARRICK: Mr. Chairman,
it is my understanding that the public law
would prevail.
THE CHAIRMAN: Ddegate James, do
you have a further question?
DELEGATE JAMES: I just wanted
clarification on that, so we will know what
the vote is.
THE CHAIRMAN: Delegate Borom.
