The gentlemans amendment is a general proposal to be engrafted upon a specific proposition. The bill in title I concerns solely school desegregation orders. The gentlemans amendment applies to any and all court orders. It would apply to labor cases. pure food and drug cases. Federal Trade Commission cases. patents. copyrights and trademark cases. Securities and Exchange Commission cases. antitrust cases. packers and stockyards cases. admiralty. immigrationit would cover the waterfront. There are plenty of precedents. I refer to volume 8 of Hines Precedents where the following appears: A specific proposition may not be amended by a general provision under the paragraph applying to one bureau in the Navy Department.
