the same constitutional provision, hold his office for the same
term of years, receive the same compensation, and have the
same powers as are herein provided for the other associate
judges in the second circuit.

The additional judge for the sixth circuit herein provided for
and elected by the qualified voters of Frederick and Mont-
gomery Counties at the 1938 election in accordance with the
terms of the Constitutional Amendment heretofore submitted
and adopted shall be subject to the same constitutional pro-

powers as are herein provided for the other associate judges
in the sixth circuit and his successor shall be appointed and/or

County and the remaining two associate judges residents of

The additional associate judge for the seventh circuit herein
provided for shall be appointed by the Governor immediately
after the adoption of this amendment and shall serve until
the first general election for members of the General Assembly
that shall be held in said circuit subsequent to the adoption of
