May I inquire whether every delegate
has on his desk a copy of the second report
of the Committee on Rules, Credentials and
Convention Budget, and a commentary on
that report? I understand that the com-
mentary was distributed yesterday and the

either of those papers? The Chair recog-
nizes Delegate Powers, Chairman of the
Committee on Calendar and Agenda.
DELEGATE POWERS: Mr. President,
I move that the daily calendar and agenda
for today be amended so that a report of
the Committee on Rules, Credentials and
Convention Budget may be received.
THE PRESIDENT: Is there a second?
(The motion was duly seconded.)
THE PRESIDENT: Is there any dis-
cussion.

Are you ready for the question? |
