to the different commissions throughout the state in proportion, as 

 is the judgment of the executive committee, to their benefit or to 

 tfieir membership or to the amount of their appropriations. That 

 seems to be provided for and seems to be perfectly feasible and I 

 do not think it would be policy to do something that would attract 

 attention and cause the antagonism, possibly, of those who make the 

 appropriations. 



Now as far as the matter which Mr. Meyers suggested is con- 

 cerned, I think as far as that preacher is concerned, he ought to

(The motion was seconded). 



Mr. Charles Lee Meyers : I would like to make an amend-

 commissioners to its own county counsel. My reason for that is 

 that you may get a decision from the Attorney General and then 

 have your county counsel reverse it. 



Dr. Brinkerhoff: My question is this. It might be all right 

 for Dr. Headlee in his department to get the opinion of the Assistant 

 Attorney General or the Attorney General ; but whether that opinion 

 would be any good in the county where we have county counsel to
