[Sept. 18] DEBATES 93
will bear with me a moment, I will find out
what it is.
Delegate Bamberger, do you have a pink
copy of the paper to which you refer?
DELEGATE BAMBERGER: Not with
me.
DELEGATE SCANLAN: Mr. President,
I believe I have a copy of the resolution.
THE PRESIDENT: Delegate Scanlan,
would you repeat that, please?
DELEGATE SCANLAN: I believe I have
a copy of the resolution to which Delegate
Bamberger refers.
THE PRESIDENT: Would you send it up
by page, please ? Delegate Bamberger, the
Chair would like to ask you a question. Is
it urgent that the matter be acted upon
two days hence ?
DELEGATE BAMBERGER: I do not
know how urgent it is that we regulate
lobbies before the Convention but this is a
matter which has been before the Commit-
tee for some time.
THE PRESIDENT: I think it is highly
desirable that it be acted upon promptly
but I think it is much more desirable that
the delegates have a copy of what is to be
considered for the full time provided by the
rules. I do not know why this has not
been reproduced. It has not been. I would
therefore prefer to hold it to see that it is
reproduced. It can be introduced tomorrow.
Delegate Scanlan ?
DELEGATE SCANLAN: On that subject,
Mr. President, there is a typographical error
in the very last paragraph on page 4.
THE PRESIDENT: Delegate Scanlan, if
so, can we correct it with the Clerk and not
take up the time now?
DELEGATE SCANLAN: All right.
THE PRESIDENT: I will see that the
corrected copies are distributed to you this
afternoon, if this is at all possible. Delegate
Bamberger ?
DELEGATE BAMBERGER: Mr. Presi-
dent, I was told some hours ago that it had
been reproduced and it may be only a mat-
ter of finding it. One of the pages is now
looking for it. If it is found, may it be in-
troduced ?
THE PRESIDENT: If it is found before
we adjourn this afternoon, it can be intro-
duced. If not, I suggest to you that you
could move to suspend the rules to have a
quicker consideration tomorrow—not consid-
eration tomorrow, but a motion tomorrow.
Are there any other motions and resolu-
tions ?
(There was no response.)
I have very few announcements. At the
request of the governor, his address to this
Convention has been postponed from day
after tomorrow, Wednesday, until Friday,
September 29. I may say by way of ex-
planation that the reason for the postpone-
ment is because the governor regards his
address to this Convention as of such im-
portance to him, and to the State, and he
hopes, to the Convention, that he desires
to have more time to work on it, and his
schedule is such that we could not schedule
it before Friday, the 29th.
We would not have scheduled it for a
Friday except for the fact that if we had
not done so in this instance, the next avail-
able date would have been October 12. The
officers thought it would be preferable to
have the governor's address on Friday
rather than delay it that long.
I have been asked by the Chief Page to
request the delegates to stop by the bill
room, not the mail room, the bill room, right
down the hall after this session to pick up
mail. All of the mail received this morning
was not distributed to your offices and what
has not been distributed is in the bill room.
Almost all of the delegates have had their
picture taken at Room 310 in the State
Office Building. However, there are some 20
or 30, I believe, who have not yet had their
photographs taken. It takes but a moment.
Delay in completing the photographs is de-
laying the completion of the roster, which
we all want very much. I request you, there-
fore, please to stop by Room 310, State Of-
fice Building, and have your picture taken.
It will take two or three minutes. Any an-
nouncements by committee chairmen?
DELEGATE KOSS: Mr. President, the
Committee on Suffrage and Elections will
meet tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock at
Shaw House to hear Mr. Lewis D. Asper,
who is the reporter to the Committee on the
Elective Franchise of the Commission.
DELEGATE KIEFER: Mr. President, the
Committee on Personal Rights and the Pre-
amble will meet immediately after this
meeting but I want to announce that to-
morrow, immediately after adjournment of
this Convention, we are holding a hearing,
or really a discussion on matters that are
