Representative Blanton proposed
that a referendum should be taken

Representative Lampert assured
the committee that there is no need
for immediate haste on the suffrage

right for the committee to meet the
desires of 100000 residents of the

opportunity for orderly consideration

Representative Rathbone raised the
question whether it would not be
