The idea was to have joint hearings Of committees but in effect most of the other committees would ba. deprivea Of work. or opportunity to judge or the merits Of the matters contained in the bills. He believed the natural committees should have tho bills. fx what they thought were needed ap- propriations. send them 10 the appro- priations committee which could re- port unfavorably if it saw fit. He hoped the senate would not agree 10 the plan.
 Senator Rudd said hc thought mos, of the 34 other committees could go homo if the plan went through. The senate refused to agree to the Buckley plan and on the court clerks salary appointed. The senate won out for II resent the bill. which it had re- ferred to the judiciary committee to the house again.
 When the clerks bill was returned to the house that body recedcd ana sent 1t to the judiciary committee.
