24 VIRGINIA SESSION FACES BUSY WINTER Much Time to Be Given to Considering Constitutional Amendments. Special Dispatch to The Star RICHMOND, Va., Much of the next ses: eeral amendments to Though the people of t e did not take kindly to the sug that the time is at hand for the holding of a convention to frame a new basic law, the fact is that there is ge il ac cept ce of the view that many and important changes are demanded right now One of these is that pertaining to the beginning of the term « th new governor. The last convention de- cided that the best thing to protect the State have the governor hezin his term some three weeks after the Legislature opens its biennial ses: sior The governo: expires February 1, and the General Assembly meets early in January pre ceding. Thus nearly one-half the s is over before the new administra takes charge. The result, it is is that the policies and ideas of new governor are ordinated, dicapped and nullified as he enters term. He must wait two vears before he can rea: ably hope to have his polictes submitted to a Legislature though the one chosen-—the lower branch—when he is made governor may be in accord with his many subjects. Half of the has virtually gone. There is a general demand that the zovernor shall be inaugurated nc later than Jan 1, possibly Decem ber 1, so that he may have a chance 1o present his recommendations to the Legislature jwior to the that body and sugnestions printed and nated. This proposed amen would #norten the term of Gov. By who thnks the policy of the outgoing governor should not influence v‘ Tegislature If the views are oppo: by his successor.
