Publicity Chairman ^ ' Gloria Flannigan dapltol Report 1 smart-cuts lor women i ky Moggie Lovewell I It is no professional secret that speeches on the floor of the United States House of Representatives have very little influense on the outcome of important legislative issues. As visitors to Washington listen to the significant (and frequently eloquent) speeches of Members of the House and Senate, they are often dismayed to discover the sparse attendance ck other Members. Many speeches are delivered at a time when scarcely 100 of the 435 members of the House are seated in the House Chamber. Sometimes, no more than fifteen Or twenty House members are present to hear remarks which may be the result of careful -research, and which may relate to issues as important as our national defense or civil rights. The most important speeches in the House of Representatives occur when a bill is up for final passage. At such times, the Republican and Democratic members of the committee, which has considered the legislative bill before it reached the House floor, provide detailed, factual information for the edification of the other Members. These explanatory statements elaborate upon material contained in a "report" which accompanies each House bill. It is : customary to allow not less than one hour for such "debates." The time was extended to five hours of debate with respect to the military appropriation bill, which passed the House last week -- the longest period allotted during this 88th session. Contrary to the prevailing practice ! ih the United States Senate where the right to un limited debate is still observed, the House Rules provide stringent curbs on the 435 representatives. Except when a bill is up for final passage, the right of a member to speak is limited to one minute. The speeches of most members of Congress, including this member, generally are delivered within the oneminute limit. After final debate on a bill, mainly by committee members, has consumed the allotted time -- any other member of the House may gain the floor for 5 minutes by offering an amendment to the bill. A member will frequently ask for unanimous consent to address the House, at the conclusion of all other legislative business, under a so-called "special order." With few exceptions, this unanimous consent is granted. A member may then speak for as long as one hour on whatever topic he selects as appropriate. During such "special orders," as well as during periods generally allotted for debate on legislative bills, a member may rise to request another member --who has the floor -- "to yield." This device, which is frequently employed by prearrangement, affords an additional ways of speaking on a bill or subject. However, the member to whom the floor is yielded sometimes embarks on a totally unrelated subject. Recently, after a member had yielded the floor pursuant to such a request, the person who gained the floor made a motion to adjourn. Fortunately for the first member, the motion to adjourn was defeated. Speeches on the floor of the" House are reproduced in the Congressional Record and, in most instances, the members "revise an extend" their original remarks by correcting their grammar, by adding to or deleting a portion of their oral statements. Sometimes a great deal of material is added, which a member inserts by "unanimous consent," although he made no reference to this material in the course of his oral remarks. Much criticism has been directed at Members of Congress for the so-called 'extension of remarks" in the Congressional Record. This means that the member has entered material in the record, with the appearance of his having uttered it on the floor of the House, even though -- on the day in question -- he might not even have been present. Newspaper editorials and other printed material are frequently entered in the "extension for remarks in the record, the experience of this member indicates that much of the material which finds its way into the Congressional Record has a wide influence among the thousands of daily Congres V.F.W. Auxiliary News Renee Jende The V.F.W. auxiliary to Fox River Post 4600 held its meeting on July 8, at the clubhouse. The' Lakemoor Girls Drill team very impressively presented the colors.

They also told us that the Department of Illinois past presidents received gold poppy corsages such as several of our auxiliary members made for Poppy Day and our own installation. The third prize m Americanism was presented to Viola Schubel who received a beautiful plaque which will have her name engraved on it. For community service, Vivian Meek won eleventh place out of 340 books presented. She also received a citation for the post on their community seivice. This proves the right gal is chairman of this committee. The Presidents and Past- Presidents Club, Ladies auxiliary to the V.F.W. of the Department of Illinois elected Daisy Smith as president and she appointed Marge Moreth as her secretary. The ladies also reported that out of thirteen units marching in the 3th district, six were sponsored by our own Fox River Post 4600.

This member of Congress prefers to include in the Congressional Record thefse remarks which I have actually addressed to the other members. These speeches may not have persuaded a single other member with respect to a single vote on any bill. However, the cumulative effect of these brief remarks is to express the views and political principles which predominate in the 12th Congressional District. ON HONOR ROLL President A. L. Knoblauch cf Western Illinois university this week released the honor roll for the spring quarter, which includes Jean E. Marsh of McHenry.

First, remove stains with cold water (dip grease spots in cleaning fluid). Using thick suds, brush out badly soiled area si such as collars.

Hang coat art plastic or wood hanger ^on't metal-stain) and pants the cuffs. Let drip dry. finger-press crease occasionally. You can also tumble dry in dryer if you first gently squeeze out excess water. As a final touch, iron at low temperature. An easier method than boiling for STERILIZING BABY BOTTLES, JELLY JARS, etc., is to use your oven. Put clean containers in cold oven and set at 250 degrees. Sterilize at this temperature for 15 minutes, turn oven off, and leave jars there until you need them. They stay hot a long time. SMART-CUT: Wait! Don't smear the floor as you try to pick up that raw egg you dropped. Just shake salt thickly over egg, let dry, and sweep up with broom. Having fresh flowers from the garden around the house is a real pleasure. But KEEPING GLASS VASES AND DECANTERS CLEAN can be a chore. To get rid of stains, soak vase in strong solution of hot vinegar. Wash with clear water. Or let tea leaves and warm water stand in vase for several hours. Empty and wash with soap and hot water. .To freshen vases after reproving flowers (especially chrysanthemums), immediately fill with salt-vinegar-water solution and let stand overnight- Clean small-neck vases by dropping a spoonful of raw rice and warm suds into bottle. Shake well. Empty, refill with sUds, and rinse with hot water. These hot summer days, MOLDED VEGETABLE OR FRUIT SALADS are great doaheads. To unmold easily, dip mold in warm water up to rim for about a minute. Loosen by running spatula around sides. Invert on plate, tap with spoon and lift off mold. Perfect!
