Delegate Hickman?
DELEGATE HICKMAN: Mr. Chair-
man, Delegate Wheatley has an amend-
ment being prepared for section 23, and he
is not here at the present time.
THE CHAIRMAN: Will the pages
please distribute Amendment R?
Delegate Hickman.
DELEGATE HICKMAN: Mr. Chair-
man, Delegate Wheatley asked if we could
pass over this and come back to it, as he
had to leave for about an hour.
THE CHAIRMAN: I think this is the
last amendment that the Chair has to the
transitional provisions. I think under the
circumstances it would probably be better
for us to recess at this time.
Delegate Powers.
DELEGATE POWERS: Mr. Chairman,
I move the Committee of the Whole rise
and report that it has not yet concluded
consideration of Committee Recommenda-
tion GP-13.
THE CHAIRMAN: Is there a second?
(The motion was duly seconded.)
THE CHAIRMAN: All those in favor
signify by saying Aye; contrary, No. The
Ayes have it. It is so ordered.
(Whereupon, at 5:50 P.M., the Committee
of the Whole rose, and the Convention re-
convened.)
(The mace was replaced by the Sergeant-
at-Arms.)
