                             POINT OF ORDER

  Mr. MICA. Mr. Speaker, I make a point of order.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman will state his point of order.
  Mr. MICA. Mr. Speaker, is it not appropriate under the rules of the 
House that those in the gallery not express their favor or disfavor to 
a statement on the floor by a Member?
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman is correct.
  Mr. MICA. Mr. Speaker, could the Chair remind those in the gallery 
that that is inappropriate; that they are represented in the House by 
their representative, and they should not express their opinion for or 
against statements made on the floor?
