3. PRIVATE CALENDAR
________________________________________________________________________
Rule XIII, clause 1 (Third):
``Third. A Calendar of the Committee of the Whole
House, to which shall be referred all bills of a private character.''
Rule XXIV, clause 6:
``6. On the first Tuesday of each month after disposal of such
business on the Speaker's table as requires reference only, the Speaker
shall direct the Clerk to call the bills and resolutions on the
Private Calendar. Should objection be made by two or more Members to
the consideration of any bill or resolution so called, it shall be
recommitted to the committee which reported the bill or resolution,
and no reservation of objection shall be entertained by the Speaker.
Such bills and resolutions, if considered, shall be considered in the
House as in the Committee of the Whole. No other business shall be in
order on this day unless the House, by two- thirds vote on motion to
dispense therewith, shall otherwise determine. On such motion debate
shall be limited to five minutes for and five minutes against said
motion.
``On the third Tuesday of each month after the disposal of such
business on the Speaker's table as requires reference only, the Speaker
may direct the Clerk to call the bills and resolutions on the Private
Calendar, preference to be given to omnibus bills containing bills or
resolutions which have previously been objected to on a call of the
Private Calendar. All bills and resolutions on the Private Calendar so
called, if considered, shall be considered in the House as in the Committee
of the Whole. Should objection be made by two or more Members to the
consideration of any bill or resolution other than an omnibus bill,
it shall be recommitted to the committee which reported the bill or
resolution and no reservation of objection shall be entertained by the
Speaker.
``Omnibus bills shall be read for amendment by paragraph, and no
amendment shall be in order except to strike out or to reduce amounts of
money stated or to provide limitations. Any item or matter stricken from
an omnibus bill shall not thereafter during the same session of Congress
be included in any omnibus bill.
``Upon passage of any such omnibus bill, said bill shall be
resolved into the several bills and resolutions of which it is composed,
and such original bills and resolutions, with any amendments adopted
by the House, shall be engrossed, where necessary, and proceedings
thereon had as if said bills and resolutions had been passed in the
House severally.
``In the consideration of any omnibus bill the proceedings as
set forth above shall have the same force and effect as if each
Senate and House bill or resolution therein contained or referred to were
considered by the House as a separate and distinct bill or resolution.''
