The rules committee held a brief
ession before the house met. There
I'LL be some changes Of minor char
ctef In parliamentary practice as for
Instance a rule under which mo-
Ions TO lay on the table will not be {
ebatable. L
The most important change how.
yer will be the combination OF all !
nance, ways and means, and apprO- J
committees into u gigan-
e committee on appropriations. This
i neoessitated by the adoption OF the
udget system and the conviction Of
he rules committee that 1t will be
dvisable to have all the sections
( the budget to 20 through one com
iittee so that they may have the
subject under view at one
me.
The method is in line with legis- ,
tive reform in many states and the !
ne which has been repeatedly advO. .
ated for the congress. The new !
ommittee will be the most import !
