mendation S&E-2 in the form submitted.
A vote Aye is a vote in favor of Amend-
ment No. 8. A vote No is a vote against.
Cast your votes.
Has every delegate voted? Does any dele-
gate desire to change his vote?
(There was no response.)
The Clerk will record the vote.
There being 80 votes in the affirmative
and 44 in the negative, the motion carries.
The amendment is adopted.
There are apparently a number of other
amendments to this section. I think it is
appropriate that we rise.
The Chair recognizes Delegate Powers.
DELEGATE POWERS: Mr. Chairman,
I move that the Committee of the Whole
rise and report that it has not yet con-
cluded its consideration of Committee Rec-
ommendation S&E-2.
(The motion was duly seconded.)
THE CHAIRMAN: All those in favor
signify by saying Aye; contrary, No. The
Ayes have it. It is so ordered.
(Whereupon, at 12:55 P.M., the Commit-
tee of the Whole rose, and the Convention
reconvened.)
(The mace was replaced by the Sergeant-
at-Arms.)

THE PRESIDENT: The Chair recog-
nizes Delegate Scanlan for the purpose of
moving the suspension of rules and for the
purpose of adoption of Resolution No. 25.
DELEGATE SCANLAN: I move at this
time that the Convention suspend the rules
so as to permit consideration of Resolution
No. 25 which has just been read across the
desk of the Clerk and which has been dis-
tributed to all the delegates.
THE PRESIDENT: Is there a second?
(The motion was duly seconded.)
THE PRESIDENT: Since this is a mo-
tion for suspension of rules, it requires that
the full resolution be read and that there
be a record vote.
Will the Clerk read the resolution?
READING CLERK: Resolution No. 25,
by the Committee on Rules, Credentials
and Convention Budget.
A RESOLUTION concerning the Stand-
ing Rules of the Convention.
WHEREAS, this Convention has hereto-
fore adopted Standing Rules and has from
time to time adopted amendments to these
rules, and;
WHEREAS the Standing Rules, as
amended through November 2, 1967, have
been printed and have been distributed to
the delegates to this convention, now there-
fore be it
RESOLVED that the printed edition of
the Standing Rules of the Convention dis-
tributed this date to the delegates to the
Convention, be and are hereby adopted as
the official edition of the Standing Rules
of the Convention for all purposes of cita-
tion as may hereafter arise; provided, how-
ever, that the Secretary of the Convention
be and is hereby authorized to correct any
error in the printed edition of the Stand-
ing Rules which may be discovered.
THE PRESIDENT: The question arises
on the motion for suspension of rules, to
permit the immediate consideration of
Resolution No. 25.
Is there discussion?
(There was no response.)
Is there a second?
(The motion was duly seconded.)
THE PRESIDENT: A vote Aye is a
vote for the suspension of rules. A vote No
is a vote against.
