Constitution of Vermont, Which
Requires Referendum.

BURLINGTON, May 3.-The follow

liam II. Ol2endam OF the Vermont Equal
Suffrage association in which Governor
Percival w. Clement refuses TO call q
special session of the legislature and
gives his reasons therefor:
Nv dear Mrs. Olzendam:-
! wish to, commend the manner in
which the arrangements were planned
and executed with reference to the del
egations which appeared at the state
house Wednesday, April 81, to EXPRESS
their reasons for requesting the calling
OF the Vermont legislature in special
session to consider the ratification of
the 10 h amendment to the federal con
-titu,ion.
Our state constitution is based upon
ne fact that ell power and authority
manate from the sovereign people. The
Loo stature has no other right for Its
xstcnce and has no authority except
/ chat bestowed upon it by the constitu
| sion. The federal constitution provides
The Brattleboro daily reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1913-1955, 1920-05-03

that the state legislature shall be the
organization which shall approve or re
jeet for the states amendments pro
posed to the federal constitutions Our
state constitution also provides that the
legislature OF Vermont is the organiza
ton authorized 20 make amendments
to the state constitution, but requires
that such action shall be exercised only
within certain limitation, both in re
gard to time and mode Of approval; and
the federal constitution Is not in con
fiet with our state constitution in this
particular
| believe that our Legislators IN The
past have on occasion violated their
Gaths Of office by ratifying amend
ments TO the federal constitution with
out referendum to the people. 1t i
true that they acted within the strict
letter OF their authority under The fed
pral constitution, but in eject they al
tered and infriuged the constitution of
Vermont in coHtravertioa OF its cN-
press terms, thereby voting away rights
of Vermonters which have been held
sacred for more than l25 years re
sent that action and believe feeling Of
resentment is general in Vermont
/ If government b. the people is e
endure in this laItd, tho action of the
legislature in thus overriding the con
4ti ution of the state must cease.
The preservation of our constitution
