Speaker. the majority leader has informed me there is not any special business to be considered on Calendar Wednesday this week. but I want to say I am opposed to the general proposition of doing away with Calendar Wednesday. I think there are many pieces of legislation from some of our smaller committees that can much better be considered at that time than by unanimous consent. Today I objected to consideration by unanimous consent of two bills from the Committee on Immigration. I think controversial matters of that character and of quite farreaching haracter should be given reasonable consideration on the floor. The only way it can be done is by maintaining Calendar Wednesday.
