Mr.. Caldwell of Guilford, sorry to find that
the motives which had drawn forth his remarks
on yesterday had been misconstrued. He opposed
the reference of these bills this committee because

opposed to the reference to the committee even if he
knew 1t to be in favor of the white basis He thought
this whole subject ought to go to committee COM

parties of this House. He should offer such a resolu

put this whole matter above party He thought it
