tive mandates shall be issued to me

While bills have been introduced in

secretary from submitting the bill at
the coming election the question has
also arisen as to whether or not a
legislature can amend or repeal an
act which has been referred to the
people and not voted upon.
Secretary Hall stated his position
In the matter in a letter sent in re-
ply to three question put directly up
to him by r. W. Michael. president

association.
While in the opinion Of the secre-
tary the legislature in passing the
bill did not comply with the terms
Of the constitution. he will neverthe-
less call the election in accordance
with his duties unless otherwise di-
rected.
After the passage OF the bill. a
referendum was filed against Article
calling for a special election to vote
on the measure. Mr. Hall accepted
the referendum although the matter
was taken into court on the ground
that house bill SO was a referendum
measure and that there could not be
a referendum on a referendum"
The secretary was sustained by the
court.
