THE PRESIDENT: You may proceed.
DELEGATE SCANLAN: Along with
their mother in the gallery are my daugh-
ter, Kathy, and Bill, Tom and Dick, the
older boys. They were born and raised in
Maryland, go to school in Bethesda, and
unlike their father, are not accused of
being moonlighters and sundowners.
. (Applause.)
THE PRESIDENT: There are no mo-
tions or resolutions. The Chair recognizes
Delegate Powers.
DELEGATE POWERS: Mr. President,
on behalf of the Committee on Calendar, I
move that Debate Schedule No. 2, which
will involve the debate in connection with
Committee Recommendation S & E-l, that
in the first paragraph where the speech
limitation is stated at five minutes, I move
that it be amended to provide a reduction
to three minutes, and that there be added
to the Schedule the following language
"presentation by sponsor of further amend-
ments is limited to ten minutes including
the time yielded for answering questions".
THE PRESIDENT: Is there a second?
(Whereupon, the motion was duly sec-
onded.)
Is there any discussion? The question
arises on the motion to dissolve into the
Committee of the Whole and to amend
Debate Schedule No. 2 so as to provide
that no speech shall exceed three minutes
in length and to provide limitation of ten
minutes to the sponsor in the presentation
of further amendments. The ten-minute
limitation to include time yielded for an-
swers.
All those in favor, signify by saying
Aye; contrary, No; the Ayes have it. It is
so ordered.
The Committee of the Whole will come
to order.
DELEGATE POWERS: Mr. President.
THE PRESIDENT: Delegate Powers.
DELEGATE POWERS: I make a mo-
tion that the Convention dissolve itself
into the Committee of the Whole for the
purpose of considering orders of the day
subject to debate limitation in accordance
with Schedules I and 2 as amended.
THE PRESIDENT: I am sorry the
Chair misunderstood you. The question
arises on resolution of the Convention to
the Committee of the Whole for the pur- |
pose of consideration of the matters indi-
cated on the Agenda and General Orders
of the day.
All those in favor, signify by saying Aye;
contrary, No. The Ayes have it. It is so
ordered.
(Whereupon, at 10:10 A.M., the Conven-
tion resolved itself into the Committee of
the Whole.)
(The mace was removed by the Sergeant-
at-Arms.)
