powerless, to place the welfare of the
people above every other consideration.
Hear our plea and answer our prayer.
Amen.
THE PRESIDENT: Roll Call.
The Chair recognizes Delegate Powers,
Chairman of the Committee on Calendar
and Agenda.
DELEGATE POWERS: Mr. Chairman, I
move that the rules be suspended so that we
may consider in today's calendar Committee
Recommendation EB-2 on the attorney gen-
eral. That is the only remaining matter in
the executive branch article and it was felt
that it would be highly desirable to have
that concluded so that Style Drafting and
Arrangement may conclude its work on
that.
Rule 33 provides that it must lay over to
the third day. This is only the second clay,
so I move that rule be suspended and that
the daily calendar be adopted.
THE PRESIDENT: Is there a second?
(W here n poti, the motion was dull/ sec-
onded.)
THE PRESIDENT: The question arises
on the motion to suspend the rules and
permit consideration this morning of Com-
mittee Recommendation EB-2 and to ap-
prove the calendar and agenda for the day.
This will require a roll call vote.
Is there any discussion ?
(There was no response.)
A. vote Aye is a vote in favor of suspend-
ing the rules. A vote No is a vote against.
Has every delegate voted? Any delegate
desire to change his vote ?
(There was no response.)
The Clerk will record the vote.
There being 98 votes in the affirmative
and 2 in the negative, the motion carries.
The rules are suspended to permit con-
sideration of Committee Recommendation
EB-2 and the calendar is approved.
The Chair recognizes Delegate Hutchin-
son.

dent, I would like to take this opportunity
