Floyd, Loggins Plan
For Special Session
p T SSn? hntlS'T’ m F Oyd and State Sen - Joseph
E Loggins, both oi Trion, will be among the scores of leels
iators converging on Atlanta Monday for the special ses
sion of the Georgia General Assembly. P
Chief topics to be taken up are (1) revision of the state
constitution and, (2) rewriting
election laws. Both Trionites
said they had copies of the pro
posed constitution but had not
yet studied it thoroughly.
Although local bills may be
introduced in this session, both
Floyd and Loggins said they had
no plans to introduce any.
Mr. Loggins said he thinks the
session will last about six weeks
and Mr. Floyd said he believes it
will last “from six to 10 weeks.”
Here are their comments on
some of the major items ex
pected to come up:
Four-year terms for members
of the Senate and House:
Loggins—l’m a little bit biased

; I on this concerning the senators,
favoring it. of course. And I
wouldn’t be opposed to four
years for the representatives.
Floyd—l hope the people will
approve this. Two year terms
1 are too short. You are running
I every other year. Practically all
other officers, county and state,
‘ are elected for four years.
Re-apportionment of House:
Loggins—l feel they should
leave it as is. If we attempt to
reapportion to put one to a
county we may end up with the
U. S. Supreme Court rendering a
' decision that we have to appor
tion on a strict population basis.
They have forced some states to
have both houses on a popula
tion basis, although that is not
the practice with the national
houses of congress.
Floyd—l’m for reapportioning
| and putting one representative
for each of the 159 counties. The
i state Senate is on a population
basis so the House should be on
I a geographical basis.
Home rule:
Loggins — I’m in complete
| agreement with more home rule.
I agree that counties and cities
should be permitted to handle
their own affairs.
Floyd — I would favor home
rule if its (in the proposed con
stitution) to the degree that I
think it is.
Lotteries:
Loggins—l agree with a reso
lution sent me by the Summer
ville Methodist Church. I’m not
familiar with the draft of the
new constitution and don’t know
just what it does or does not
say about lotteries. But in the
Senate we will go over it section
by section and paragraph by
paragraph.
Floyd—l think we ought to
have in the new constitution a
provision making lotteries illegal
if it is not included. I would
* work to get it put in there.
Mr. Floyd added that he un
■ derstood the new constitution
may not forbid the granting of
state money to churches and
added that he wanted to be sure
that also was included. “I’m ab
: sohitely for separation of church
and state,” he added.
The legislator also said he un
derstood the new constitution
i might take away gas rebate
money now given rural counties
and put it in urban areas. He
said he would oppose that step.
“If Georgia is to make progress,
then all sections must make
progress, not just the urban
areas.” he said.
Administration plans call for
the constitution to be taken up
first in the House, while the
Senate is considering ejection
idw changes at the same time.
Predictions are that both
houses will make many changes
in a constitution draft submitted
by the Constitution Revision
Commission. Any changes made
by the Senate in the House ver
sion would send the measure to
a joint conference committee to
iron out the differences.
