DELEGATE HARDWICKE: Mr. Presi-
dent, this is merely a housekeeping amend-
ment. "3.04 was amended since we drew
the transitional provisions, and it now con-
tains the provision with respect to the divi-
sion of Senate districts into three districts
for the House of Delegates, and we have
to suspend that along with the other pro-
visions with regard to the new legislature
until the election of 1970, and the purpose
of this is to make it clear that that pro-
vision also is suspended until 1970, and it
is in keeping with other things we have
done and I urge its adoption.
THE PRESIDENT: Is there any dis-
cussion?
Are you ready for the question?
