Concurring Opinion by
Mr. Justice Bell:
I agree with nearly all of Justice Cohenes opinion. However, The Second Class Township Code appears in some matters to be a hodge-podge which apparently contains authority or directions to be all things to all men. This is particularly so under §2003 (Act of July 10, 1947, P. L. 1481, §47). The Act seemingly contains inconsistent or conflicting provisions which produce ambiguity and confusion and raise serious doubts as to the validity and/or constitutionality of some of its provisions.
For these reasons I wish it clearly understood that neither the validity nor the Constitutionality of Article XX, §2003 of the Code have been approved or decided in this case.
