We cannot possibly reproduce them.
Today marks the end of the first week of an
experiment, and I think that I could speak for the
delegates in taking note of the very excellent service
rendered to the convention during this past week by the
fourteen young pages who have served as pages on the
floor, have served as willing and anxious messengers
between the offices and the committee offices and have
served as very interested observers at the committee
hearings. Under the schedule worked out, half of
these young people will not be here next week. They
will be here later, but on Monday you will have half of
the present group and another new group. Hereafter the
changes will occur at two week intervals.
I want to take this opportunity to say for
from
myself and I am quite sure that/the comments I have
heard, that I can on the view of all the delegates, that
we can give them a very hearty well done and say that
we are glad we tried the experiment. (Applause.)
Are there any delegates who were absent
from roll call who desire to note their presence? |
