islature's act should favorable vote

The question of constitutionality
in the event of ratification hinges
upon a clause in the state constitution
which provides that action on any fed
eral amendment must be taken by the
Legislature elected after the amend
ment is submitted Some say the re-
cent supreme court decision invali-
dates this clause, which is a form of
