like to announce that the Committee on
Suffrage and Election will meet immedi-
ately following adjournment in the lounge,
for having a picture taken.
DELEGATE JAMES (presiding): Dele-
gate Moser.
DELEGATE MOSER: Also I would like
to announce that the Local Government
Committee will meet exactly five minutes
after the session recesses for supper, and
will stay in session I promise no longer
than fifteen minutes. The meeting will be
in our committee rooms.
I would like everyone to be prompt, if
you will, and we will adjourn promptly.
Thank you.
DELEGATE JAMES (presiding): The
Chair recognizes Delegate Della.
DELEGATE DELLA: Mr. President, do
we get a copy of this transitory proposal ?
DELEGATE JAMES (presiding): I
think it will be made available. It is at
the print shop, I understand, and it will be
delivered very soon.
DELEGATE DELLA: I notice that the
clerks and everybody else have copies.
DELEGATE JAMES (presiding): That
is the "advance guard", I guess.
DELEGATE DELLA: Do you have a
good reason ?
DELEGATE JAMES (presiding): There
are only four copies available, but I under-
stand they will be available very shortly.
They are being compiled in the print shop.
(President H. Vernon Eney resumed the
chair.)
T,HE PRESIDENT: I have been endeav-
oring to find out what Delegate Miller's
condition was, and Mrs. Miller has been at
the hospital rather constantly. She was
calling, and I left the rostrum to take the
call because it has been very difficult for
me to reach her. He is very, very sick. He
is in a great deal of pain.
Delegate Dulany.
DELEGATE DULANY: I just wanted to
make a committee announcement, if I
could.
THE PRESIDENT: You may.
DELEGATE DULANY: There will be a
meeting of the committee on Public Infor-
mation one-half hour before the session to-
morrow morning.

THE PRESIDENT: At the moment I
think I have to leave you in a little uncer-
tainty as to the time of the session tomor-
row morning. I have indicated to Delegate
Penniman that I would want to begin the
session at ten o'clock. I want to confer
with him at the dinner hour to see whether
or not by doing so we could slow down the
Committee on Style. I do not think so, so
I anticipate that we will have a session be-
ginning at ten o'clock in the morning, and
certainly we will have a session tomorrow
morning, and tomorrow afternoon and to-
morrow night, and of course we will have
a session tonight.
The Chair recognizes Delegate Powers.
All delegates present now and not pres-
ent at roll call earlier today may indicate
their presence on supplemental roll call.
The Clerk will record the supplemental
roll call.
The Chair recoginizes Delegate Powers.
DELEGATE POWERS: Mr. President,
notwithstanding the fact that the President
announced that there would be no more
recesses, I move that we recess until 8
o'clock.
THE PRESIDENT: Is there a second?
(The motion was duly seconded.)
THE PRESIDENT: All those in favor
signify by saying Aye; contrary No. The
Ayes have it. It is so ordered.
(Whereupon, at (! :30 P.M., the Conven-
tion was recessed to reconvene at 8 P.M.,
the same day.)
PLENARY SESSION

THE PRESIDENT: The Convention will
please come to order.

answered roll call ? The Clerk will record
Delegate Boileau's being present. Has every
delegate answered roll call ?

The Clerk will record the roll call.
