such change be mace apparent. The
committee recommend that the bill

Bill No. 70, providing for amend
ments of Articles 60 and 76 of the
Constitution. The committee IN,
that Article 90 is sought to be amend
ed by striking out the provision Tia
during the incumbency OF the justices
of the Supreme Court their compen

committee is unable to find any rea
son for the amendment proposed ant
every reason against it. The com
mittee submit that the part Of tn,
article sought to be eliminated is !
wholesome provision. The Justice

| placed above the unceI tainty o
the tenure and salary and left in tina
respect free 10 do their duty and fle,
from the necessity of having well
