that Senator Ervin and other staff members were confused as to the intent and
significance of some of our proposed changes in the Senator's language and
would like a clarifying statement from us explaining whether our proposals
involved substantive matters or were merely changes of form. If they were
intended to change the substance of Ervin's language, they would like an
explanation. I told Conrad we would respond shortly.
