THE PRESIDENT,: Will the pages
please distribute the amendment X and Y.
X-ray and Yokum. These are respectfully
numbers 12 and 13 to EB-1 and EB-2. \rou
have already acted. I just wanted to com-
plete your record.
Delegate Hopkins.
DELEGATE HOPKINS: Mr. President,
I think most of us have Amendments 12
and 13 to EB-1 and -2.
THE PRESIDENT: Very well.
While we are distributing those, let me
make an announcement or two which will
keep you for a few moments, but do not
leave your seats.
As soon as the pages have distributed,
they will go get the commissions and bring
them to you. I would much rather the
pages hand you your commission, so that
any further responsibility for breakage is
yours, and we do not run the risk of having
the commissions damaged.
Will the pages, as soon as they have
concluded distributing the amendments,
please get the commissions out of the Sen-
ate Chamber and present them to the dele-
gates ?
Let me take but a moment to .tell you
what I think is obvious. We have a four-
day week scheduled next week that is going
to be an exceedingly difficult one. I think
we can conclude without unseemly haste
what is on the schedule, but only upon
condition that all delegates plan to be
here in Annapolis all day Tuesday, Wednes-
day, perhaps Thursday, you certainly
ought to plan for it, and certainly on
Friday. Please do not make any plans
or assumptions that you will not have an
evening session or that you will have a
late morning session, or that you will not
be needed at any time during these days.
I think we will have to operate on the as-
sumption that all delegates are here, and
that we can change the calendar on a mo-
ment's notice, change the hours, and move
forward.
Next week is for all practical purposes
the last week, and we can do the job if we
stay to it in that way.
Delegate James.
DELEGATE JAMES: Mr. President, let
me suggest we not make any plans for
Saturday, either.
THE PRESIDENT: Thank you very
much.
Delegate Wheatley.

DELEGATE WHEATLEY: Mr. Chair-
man, at what time do we plan to come in?
At noon on Tuesday?
THE PRESIDENT: Plan to come in at
noon for the session, but I would urge
every delegate to be here Tuesday morning
so that if you have any amendments or if
there are any last-minute messages to get
to you we can reach you. The session un-
doubtedly will run all day, all afternoon
Tuesday, and Tuesday night. It will prob-
ably be all day Wednesday and Wednes-
day night.
Delegate Wheatley.
DELEGATE WHEATLEY: There will be
a meeting of the General Provisions Com-
mittee on Tuesday at 11:30 A.M., in the
General Provisions room.
THE PRESIDENT: Delegate Wheatley,
may I inquire if that is with respect to the
schedule of committee recommendations on
transitional and legislative ?
DELEGATE WHEATLEY: No, Mr.
Chairman.
T,HE PRESIDENT: All right.
Are there any other announcements by
committee chairmen ?
Are there any announcements by any
other delegates?

there will be a meeting of the Local Gov-
ernment Committee on Tuesday at 11:00
A.M., followed by the taking of a picture.
THE PRESIDENT: Delegate Penniman.
DELEGATE PENNIMAN: There will be
a meeting of the Committee on Style,
Drafting and Arrangement at 9:30 A.M. on
Tuesday.
T.HE PRESIDENT: Are there any other
announcements by committee chairmen, or
any others?
There is one resolution, Resolution 26.
The Clerk will read it.
