            97      PAY OF CLERICAL AND OTHER ASSISTANTS AS AFFECTED BY
                        TERMINATION OF SERVICE OF APPOINTED SENATORS

                    Resolved, That in any case in which (1) a Senator is
                appointed to fill any portion of an unexpired term, (2) an
                election is thereafter held to fill the remainder of such
                unexpired term, and (3) the Senator so appointed is not a
                candidate or if a candidate is not elected at such election,
                his clerical and other assistants on the payroll of the
                Senate on the date of termination of his service shall be
                continued on such roll at their respective salaries until
                the expiration of thirty days following such date or until
                they become otherwise gainfully employed, whichever is
                earlier, such sums to be paid from the contingent fund of
                the Senate. A statement in writing by any such employee that
                he

    [[Page 177]]

                was not gainfully employed during such period or the portion
                thereof for which payment is claimed shall be accepted as
                prima facie evidence that he was not so employed. The
                provisions of this resolution shall not apply to an employee
                of any such Senator if on or before the date of termination
                of his service he notifies the Disbursing Office of the
                Senate in writing that he does not wish the provisions of
                this resolution to apply to such employee.
