DEAN FORDHAM: I think it would be desirable
|
|
2
|
even so, but notso desirable as it would be were there a
|
|
3
|
well conceived plan of classification, because there are
|
|
4
|
wide differences. I am sure Montgomery County is differ-
|
|
5
|
ent from some of your rural counties, quite different.
|
|

|
DR. LOEVY: Am I right that you are for the
|
|
7
|
broad grant with classification?
|
|
8
|
DEAN FORDHAM: Yes, I am.

THE CHAIRMAN: What would be the reason not to
|
|
10
|
go ahead and have classification provided for and avail-
|
|
11
|
able to your Legislature from the constitution, even if we
|
|
12
|
have had a pattern in the past of not having utilized it
|
|
13
|
because we haven't needed it, but there it is in the event
|
|
14
|
we do need it?
|
|
15
|
DR. LOEVY: There is nothing wrong with it. I
|
|
16
|
am thinking historically what got the Committee away from
|
|
17
|
your broad grant of powers was resistance to classification
|
|
18
|
on the part of many members of the Conaiittee.
|
|

|
DEAN FORDHAM: I have no basis for criticizing
|
|
20
|
it. I don't fully understand the system, I respect it, and
|
|
21
|
I am in no position to criticize it.
