TPIE PRESIDENT: Is there any fur-
ther discussion?
Delegate Marion.
DELEGATE MARION: Mr. President,
the way you cast the preceding amendment
and this one, would you not, if this amend-
ment is adopted, have the words "by law"
twice in the section?
THE PRESIDENT: You would.
Delegate Boyer.
DELEGATE BOYER: You are exactly
right. We only mean "by law" once.
THE PRESIDENT: Perhaps the Chair
better subdivide further. The question
arises on the recommendation of the Com-
mittee on Style to amend section 8.01 by
striking from line 7 the word "provide"
and from line 8 the word "for" and to
substitute for the word "provide" the word
"establish". The Chair will submit sep-
arately the question of the amendment with
respect to the words "by law".
Is there any discussion?
(There was no response.)
Are you ready for the question?
(Call for the question.)
Delegate Pullen.
DELEGATE PULLEN: I do not under-
stand what you are saying.
THE PRESIDENT: Well, I will state
the question.
DELEGATE PULLEN: Please.
THE PRESIDENT: The question now
presented to you is whether or not to adopt
the recommendation of the Committee on
Style to strike from line 7 the word "pro-
vide" and to strike from line 8 the word
"for" and insert in lieu of the word "pro-
vide" the word "establish".
A vote Aye would be a vote in favor of
that change as recommended by the Com-
mittee on Style. A vote No would be a
vote against that change which is what
Delegate Boyer, as Chairman of the Com-
mittee, recommends would restore the lan-
guage to the previous form.
DELEGATE PULLEN: In other words,
you are taking two steps.
THE PRESIDENT: That is correct.
DELEGATE PULLEN: You eliminate
"establish" and then we come in if that
fails and take Chairman Boyer's recom-
mendation?
|
THE PRESIDENT: No, we will take
that in one step. In the second step we
consider the words "by law" in line 8. A
vote Aye would be a vote in favor of the
Committee on Style's recommendation and
a vote No would be a vote in favor of Dele-
gate Boyer's recommendation.
Are you ready for the question?
(Call for the question.)
THE PRESIDENT: The question arises
on the adoption of the recommendation to
the Committee on Style to amend section
8.01, to strike the word "provide" in line 7
and the word "for" in line 8 and substitute
the word "establish" for the word. A vote
Aye is a vote in favor of the recommenda-
tion of the Committee on Style. A vote No
is a vote against the amendment in favor
of the recommendation made by the Chair-
man of the Committee on General Pro-
visions.
Cast your votes.
Has every delegate voted? Does any
delegate desire to change his vote?
(There was no response.)
The Clerk will record the vote.
There being 5 votes in the affirmative
and 104 in the negative, the motion fails
and the amendment is rejected.
The question now arises on the adop-
tion of the recommendation of the Com-
mittee on Style to strike from line 8 the
words "by law". Is there any discussion?
(There was no response.)
Are you ready for the question?
(Call for the question.)
The question arises on the adoption of
the recommendation of the Committee on
Style to amend section 8.01 by striking
the words "by law" from line 8.
A vote Aye is a vote in favor of the
committee recommendation. A vote No is
a vote against. A vote Aye, in other words,
strikes the words "by law"; a vote No
leaves the words "by law" in.
Cast your votes.
