[Dec. 29] DEBATES 2887

s change in substance. I do not honestly
[ know.

I would continue to vote against the com-
mittee recommendation —

THE PRESIDENT: Do you desire to
submit it separately, then ?

t

: DELEGATE WILLONER: Yes.

THE PRESIDENT: Very well. T.he ques-
tion now arises upon the adoption of the
recommendations of the Committee on Style
as contained in lines 31 and 32 on page 2.

Is there any discussion? Are you ready
for the question? A vote Aye is a vote in
favor of the recommendations of the Com-
mittee on Style in lines 31 and 32 on page
2. A vote No is a vote against.

Cast your vote.
(Whereupon, a roll call vote was taken.)

THE PRESIDENT: Has every delegate
voted ? Delegate James Clark ?

DELEGATE J. CLARK: Aye.

THE PRESIDENT: Delegate James
Clark votes Aye.

Has every delegate voted ? Does any dele-
gate desire to change his vote ? Delegate
James.

DELEGATE JAMES: I do not quite un-
derstand how to vote on this issue. Is a vote
Aye to strike out the committee amend-
ments ?

THE PRESIDENT: A vote Aye is a vote
which would be in favor of the recommenda-
tions of the Committee on Style, so that
the sentence in line 31 would read, "No
warrants shall be issued except upon prob-
able....." A vote No would leave the language
the way it was before those amendments
were made.

Delegate Bothe.

DELEGATE BOTHE: I simply wanted
to point out, as I hear some confusion
around me, that a vote against the Com-
mittee on Style recommendation would
place the language in conformity with the
Fourth Amendment to the United States
Constitution.

THE PRESIDENT: Does any delegate
desire to change his vote? The Clerk will
record the vote.

There being 47 votes in the affirmative
and 70 in the negative, the motion is lost.
The amendments are rejected.

The question now arises upon the adop-
tion of the amendments suggested by the
Committee on Style in Committee Recom-
mendation R&P-1 and R&P-2 with respect
to all sections other than section 1.05, but
including the change in the caption on sec-
tion 1.05, lines 23 and 24, on page 2.

A vote Aye is a vote in favor of these
Style Committee amendments; a vote No
is a vote against.

For what purpose does Delegate Rybczyn-
ski rise?

DELEGATE RYBCZYNSKI: I want to
make sure this 1.12 amendment does not
slip by.

THE PRESIDENT: Do you have it?

DELEGATE RYBCZYNSKI: I believe
Delegate Smith has the thing worked up.

THE PRESIDENT: Delegate Smith.

DELEGATE M. SMITH: It is in the pro-
cess, Mr. Chairman. I do not know whether
you call it style, or whether you call it sub-
stance. I thought you had held it to be
substance.

THE PRESIDENT: What I said was
it was an amendment perhaps of style but
it did not pertain directly to the amend-
ments submitted by the Committee. If that
is still the case, it is not necessary to put
it now. You will have the opportunity.

Are you ready for the question ? The
question arises on the approval of the rec-
ommendations of the Committee on Style
as to all sections of Committee Recommen-
dation R&P-1 and R&P-2 except section
1.05 but including the caption of section
1.05. A vote Aye is a vote in favor of the
amendments submitted by the Committee
on Style; a vote No is a vote against. Cast
your votes.

THE PRESIDENT: Has every delegate
voted ? Delegate James Clark ?

DELEGATE J. CLARK: I vote Aye.

THE PRESIDENT: Does any delegate
desire to change his vote ? The Clerk will
record the vote.

There being 114 votes in the affirmative
and 1 in the negative, the motion is car-
ried. The amendments are adopted.

Delegate Marvin Smith, if you could be
having somebody type up your memorandum
while we are considering other sections,
I think it would be very helpful.

DELEGATE M. SMITH: It is in process,
Mr. President.
