but they have got to be good friends of yours, otherwise
|
2
|
you won't succeed. I don't know why I said all that.

Should the Governor have the power to dele-
|
4
|
gate his powers of executive clemency?
|
5
|
No, he gets advice instead, and it is usual
|
6
|
to talk, as Governor Tawes and Mayor McKeldin have said,
|
7
|
he talks to judges, he talks to almost everybody he can
|
8
|
in order to inform himself with the information he needs
|
9
|
for the exercise of it, and if it should be spread around
|
10
|
in various places, well, you run the risk of getting in a
|
11
|
mess. I think the Governor should accept that responsi-
|
12
|
bility no matter how he works it out, and I would depend
|
13
|
on him to work it out in a creditable way, but I think
|
14
|
there is a danger in spreading it around too much.
|
15
|
Should the Governor hsve the power to grant a
|
16
|
nolle prosequi?
|
17
|
I never heard of it before I read the Consti-
|
18
|
tution, and I had no participation in any activity under
|
19
|
it, and I think it should be deleted as a dead letter.
|

|
Should the Governor have a veto power?
|
21
|
Of course.
