practically the first item of business. When Delegate
Powers makes his report, and moves that it be adopted,
the opportunity is then open to any delegate to move to
amend the calendar, either to add or delete any item.
This is the device which has been adopted to provide us
with a calendar that tells you in advance what is to be
done and at the same time leaves the final control of
the calendar in the hands of the Convention itself.
In addition, as you are aware, the rules pro-
vide that the Chairman of the Committee on Calendar
and Agenda may be recognized at any time, interrupt any
proceeding to recognize the Chairman of that Committee.
If, during the course of a session, because of some de-
velopment, you think a matter which has not been
scheduled should be considered in any way, it will be sim-
ple for you to slip over to the Chairman of the Committee,
discuss it with him. If he agrees with you, he can
move to amend the calendar right then and there.
If not, then, of course, it would go over to
the next day, unless there is a motion to suspend the
rules. |
