Asked to comment on the
move for early adjournment,
Mr.. Galloway said that no
legal action would be re-
Quired since under the 1946
Legislative Reorganization
Act, q date for adjournment
was placed for not later than
July 81 so "it Is the law Of
the land"
However. he added, that
the 10th Congress had in
cluded a little proviso" that
said this would only hold true
II there was not a national
emergency.
The speaker went on to say
that one way that would
make earlier adjournment
possible would be IF we did
as the British do. They plan
q legislative program ahead
on q session basis and not
on q weekly basis as we do"
Mr.. Galloway recently fin
ished o book entitled, "Con-
greSs and Parliament"
The speaker described the
Legislative Reference Service
which was established by
Congress in 1914, as having q
scope and purpose to gather,
classify and make data on
all legislative matters avail
able to members Of Congress
and congressional commit
tees"
He spoke of the growth Of
the service which presently
includes over 200 members,
has an annual budget Of Sl.6
million and answers approx.
mately 10000 inquiries each
year.
We've even been known to
write books for members Of
Congress" said Mr.. Gallo
way. However. we try to
resist this"
He added that about one
third Of the inquiries were
passed on by the Congress
men from their constituents
and cited several amusing
examples.
