NO SURPRISE TO eHDcTS.
The offering of the 10 per cent re-
duction substitute did not come as a
surprise to the members of the House
who had been watching the Borland

the ma jority of the House. which seems
to be of a mind to defeat any attempt

Chairman Crisp's Ruling
The entire ruling contains much par
liamentary law and several precedcnts.
but the vital words were these:
1t was the practice under the rules
of the House that Legislation is not
in order on an appropriation bill unless
1t comes within the exception known
as the Holman rule. Under that rule
In certain instances legislation is in
order. The chair is of the opinion that
section 8 in the bill under considera-
ton does not retrench expenditures by
the number or salary of any officer
of the United States. The chair is also
of the opinion that it does not within
the meaning of the rule reduce the
compensation of any person paid out
of the Treasury of the United States.
does not reduce the amount of money
covered by the bill.
Then the question arises that the
chair determine whether the amend
ment is in order under the provse of
the Holman rule. The gentleman from
Missouri, Mr.. Borland. and the gentle
man from Wyoming. Mr.. Mondell. both
concede that the committee on appro-
priations is not legislative COMMITTEE
Therefore the chair will not cite
authority to that effect, although the
chair could do SO.
Discusses "Germane Amendments
I'm the opinion of the chair an in
dividual member can offer germane
amendments and if they fall within
any of the excepted classes the amend
ments are in order, even if legislation
But the chair has ruled that in the
opinion of the chair the section in
question does not come within any one
of those three classes. The committee
on appropriations, being a non-legisla
tive committee, has not more authority
to insert as a part of Dill section
6, than any member would have the
amendment on the floor of the House
THE chair does not feel that il is in
cumbent on him to pass upon section
6 as to whether or not it would reduce
expenditures. The chair, however, is
of the opinion that under the Holman
reduction naturally follows to bring it
within the purview of the rule.
"The chair does not believe that the
opinion of some one that the amend
ment might reduce and the opinion of
another that ii might not is legitimate
for the chair to consider, but the chair
must determine from the amendment
itself whether or not it's natural con-
sequence is to reduce expenditures.
"As before stated. however, the chair
is not required to pass upon that's for
