262 La. 605
    Steve J. MORTILLARO v. CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION FOR the CITY OF NEW ORLEANS, and the City of New Orleans.
    No. 52656.
    Supreme Court of Louisiana.
    July 17, 1972.
   In re: Steve J. Mortillaro applying for writs of prohibition, certiorari and mandamus.

Writs refused. The application is without merit.

BARHAM, J.,

concurs. The result is harsh and I entertain grave doubt it was intended by the legislature. Thousands of citizens of this State — i. e. Civil Service personnel — are prohibited from participating in the Constitutional Convention and logic will not support this denial. However, the language of Act 2 of 1972 is unambiguous and Art. 14, Sec. 15 (N) (7) La.Const, appears to control.
