DREW, Justice

(dissenting):

In my view, the district court in its decision reported in 187 So.2d 390 did initially construe a controlling provision of the Constitution of this State, thereby vesting in this Court jurisdiction to entertain this appeal. I am also of the view that the district court correctly decided the issue and I would affirm its judgment.
