In an effort to make a little progress, I
have had some additional meetings this
morning which, up to the moment, have
produced no progress. For this reason,
I am going to suggest to the Convention
that they stop talking for the moment
about the problem presented by Amend-
ment 16-B and, if anyone has the notion
of doing so, that he refrain from moving
a reconsideration. Within the next hour I
hope that by private discussion among two
or three of the delegates who have worked
so much on this, we can at least come up
with a statement that will be more under-
standable to the remaining delegates.
I think also that the problem with re-
spect to Amendment 16-B may be some-
what clarified, or at least sharpened, if we
proceed to the consideration of the other
amendments in connection with section
3.23. This may seem a backward way to
do it, but all of us who have participated
in the discussions this morning are agreed
that we will make more time, more prog-
ress, if we will consider the other two or
three amendments to this section, and then
come back to the question presented by
Amendment 16-B.
Delegate Grant, you have an amend-
ment which is largely a matter of style.
Amendment Z. Do you desire to offer it?
DELEGATE GRANT: Yes, I would.
THE PRESIDENT: Pages will please
distribute Amendment Z, Z for zebra.
Delegate Freedlander.
DELEGATE FREEDLANDER: I be-
lieve you meant 16-A, did you not, rather
than 16-B?
THE PRESIDENT: You are quite cor-
rect. 16-A was the amendment which was
substituted for 16. Thank you. I thought
I understood it; now I see that I am con-
fused also.
While the pages are distributing this
amendment I would like to indicate that
I would propose to recognize you, Delegate
Fox, after this to move your Amendment
Y, that I understand you are going to
move, if Delegate Boyles is not here. After
that, Delegate Moser, I would propose to
recognize you to move your Amendment
GG, if you decide to offer it.
Delegate Moser.
DELEGATE MOSER: I am sorry, Mr.
President, I was talking. I did not hear
you.

THE PRESIDENT: I am indicating
that after consideration of the present
amendment I would propose to recognize
Delegate Fox to make an amendment, and
following that would propose to recognize
you to offer your Amendment GG, if you
still intend to offer it, and following that
would propose to recognize Delegate Car-
son for his amendment pertaining to nat-
ural resources, and then to recognize Dele-
gate Wagandt for the amendment per-
taining to education.
Delegate Moser.
DELEGATE MOSER: Mr. President,
I would not offer GG except in connection
with a reconsideration of 16-A.
THE PRESIDENT: Very well, then we
will hold GG in the end.
Delegate Wagandt.
DELEGATE WAGANDT: Mr. Presi-
dent, Delegate Freedlander is going to
offer the amendment pertaining to strik-
ing "education" and I believe that there
is an amendment with my name on it to
strike natural resources from the list of
exceptions under the general application
of laws.
THE PRESIDENT: Yes, I will recog-
nize Delegate Freedlander then on the
Amendment F, the amendment with re-
spect to natural resources, I referred to
incorrectly as the Carson amendment. That
is the one to which you refer?
DELEGATE WAGANDT: Yes.
THE PRESIDENT: Amendment Z will
be Amendment No. 17.
The Clerk will read the amendment:
READING CLERK: Amendment No. 17
to Committee Recommendations LB-1, LB-
2, LB-3 as amended by Style Committee
Report S&E-16, by Delegates Grant and
Byrnes: On pages 8 and 9 section 3.23,
