1962] OF THE HOUSE OP DELEGATES 57

The alternatives now available to the General Assembly are three:

1. Enact fair and equitable reapportionment bills along the lines
of the bills I submitted;

2. Enact the stop gap bill without crippling amendments and allow
the General Assembly that meets next January to enact a proper
constitutional amendment;

3. Fail to act and abdicate its responsibilities.

I expect and pray that every member of the General Assembly will
measure up to his responsibility.

Sincerely,

J. MILLARD TAWES,

Governor
