some of the other states, where the legislature meets for
|
2
|
a short period of time and recesses and comes back and
|
3
|
recesses again and operates all year through, it would
|

|
probably be something different than we have in Maryland.

When you have a continuous operation of the Maryland

General Assembly, it is entirely different than when you

have a weekly operation.

THE CHAIRMAN: We are going to get into the
|
9
|
factor of whether this body believes in the work papers
|
10
|
there ought to be some descriptive statement concerning a
|
11
|
continuing body of the legislature or by various sessions,
|
12
|
such as you described a few moments ago. This is true,
|
13
|
and we will make note of this, I hope, so that we don't
|
14
|
get away from it. Dr. Winslow?

DR. WINSLOW: May I make two comments prompted
|
16
|
by Mr. Eney's question? One is, I doubt very much if you
|
17
|
can argue from the local unit to the state unit. The
|
18
|
situation, the conditions, the business to be done are
|
19
|
quite different. I think you can argue, however, if you
|
20
|
wish to, on this basis.
