declares he is opposed to the
calling of a state constitutional convention in 1959 on the ground it
would produce nothing of value.
The chairman of the State Power Authority and various commissions said .there was nothing urgently requiring change and that
a convention would lead to "bitter

on this issue is to vote 'No,' " he
said.
