1

that I've had in one of the houses convinces me that we
|
|
2
|
can operate very successfully with the unicameral legis-
|
|
3
|
lature and I think it would be far more desirable for
|
|
4
|
many, many reasons other than those stated, but which
|
|
5
|
have been stated in a study that has been made by your
|
|
6
|
Committee, your Commission reports here, which has gone
|
|
7
|
into great length on the pros and cons and I won't
|
|
8
|
repeat them.
|
|

|
One thing I would like to say, that I have
|
|
10
|
been most interested in ever since I came into the State
|
|
11
|
house is to make certain, however, that state legislators
|
|
12
|
remain state legislators. I would like to see some syster
|
|
13
|
devised with a unicameral system which would put us all
|
|
14
|
to the test, whereby a state legislator would have
|
|
15
|
nothing to do with county local legislation. This may
|
|
16
|
not tie in exactly to this point, but I would like to
|
|
17
|
see this looked into further by this group.

THE CHAIRMAN: You will be interested to know
|
|
19
|
that we do have another committee that has made a study
|
|
20
|
of this and looked at that very question and we do feel
|
|
21
|
that they are tied together.
