This afforded Mr.. De Almond an
opportunity to attack the rule and TO
advocate selection of committee on

In criticisng the methods of con-
centrating power in the speaker, Mr..
De Almond declared the appointment
of Democrats on the committee of

Democratic side. Mr.. De Almond
said that he was satisfied that Mr..
Broussard had been selected for the
committee without any intention of

De Almond had given an exhibition
of unreasonableness by his objection.
