ACTION REFUSED
BY LEGISLATURE
Declines to Approve Brisiow
Amendment on Ground That It ,
Is Unconstitutional.
Atlanta, Ga , August 2 ?The proposed I
Brlstow amendment to the Constitution
of the United States providing for pop?
ular election of United state.- Senators
la unconstitutional, according to the re?
port submitted to the House, to-day by
the special committee of the Legisla?
ture to which It hadfbeen referred.
The report holds that the Legislature
cannot consent to receive cr act upon
any proposal for the amendment of the
Federal Constitution until the same Is
made by two-thirds of the full member?
ships of both houses of Congress, and
conceives it to bo In "derogation of
i the reserved rights of the States for
any amendment to be proposed until It
receives such voto."
The report concludes by saying that
"In the Interest of candor we conceive
III proper to say that the State of
\ Georgia will be prompt to agree to
the election of Senators by the people
of the respective State?, if the proposal
therefore be made In what we conceive
? to be the method rovlded by the Con?
stitution for its own amndment. but
j not In any terms which derogate In
any degree, directly or consequentially^
from our reserved rights of entire and
unqualified control over our own suf?
frage, registration and elections.
The Govenor is requested to return
the communication to the proper Fed?
eral officer from whom It emanated
and to send a copy to the Governors of
I the several States, with the request
! that the time be laid before their re?
spective Legislatures In the "hope that
It will give earnest insistence that the
Congress do not hereafter propose
amendments to the Federal Constltu
, tion otherwise than upon the vote of
, two-thirds of the entire membership
: of each House thereof."
