Speech #620270223

I amn familiar with that decision. because it was at the time of the hairpulling match six years ago upon this educational test. By the terms of the special rule under which we were operating at that time only 2 sections of the long bill of 38 or more sections were open to amendment. Nobody on earth thinks a provision for an immigration commission is germane to an educational test. and yet it was practically so decided at the time. The Chair in his ruling began by saying that inasmuch as no one had seen fit to raise a point of order against a certain previous amendment offered by Mr. Littauer. therefore Members were estopped in the case of the Grosvenor amendment.
