The Chair quite understands the language and the substance of the rule. Now. whatever way this rule is .552 construed. there -would certainly arise confusion and casesof hardship in contest between committees and Members for the consideration of business. Under this rule. if construed as the gentleman from Ohio claimsit should be construed. some other committee than the Committee on Immigralion and Naturalization would have been called. because on last calendar Wednesday the call did not rest upon this committee. But in the meantime there had been a call of committees under the old rule. . Now. if you segregate and make calendar Wednesday in order by itself.-the House. in the event a bill was under consideration at adjournmentyou can not take a recess under this rule on calendar Wednesdaymight desire to dispose of that bill. -It might be a bill of the highest importance. yet. under the construction that the gentleman from Ohio claims. that bill would go over for one week until the next calendar Wednesday. and the committee on call would have two days.
