General debate shall be confined to the bill and shall not

of whether the Member offering an amendment has caused
it to be printed in the portion of the Congressional Record
designated for that purpose in clause 6 of rule XXIII.
Amendments so printed shall be considered as read. The
Chairman of the Committee of the Whole may: (1) post-
pone until a time during further consideration in the Com-

on the first in any series of questions shall be fifteen min-
utes. At the conclusion of consideration of the bill for

adopted. Any Member may demand a separate vote in the
House on any amendment adopted in the Committee of
the Whole to the bill or to the committee amendment in
the nature of a substitute. The previous question shall be
considered as ordered on the bill and amendments thereto
to final passage without intervening motion except one
motion to recommit with or without instructions.
SEC. 2. After passage of H.R. 2460, it shall be in
order to consider in the House S. 493. It shall be in order
to move that the House strike all after the enacting clause
of the Senate bill and insert in lieu thereof the provisions
of H.R. 2460 as passed by the House.
