Rep. Brown said, sotto voce; that he'd read in the papers where Dade County, Ga, decided only a couple of days ago to merge with the rest of the U. S. A, and that for the first time since 1863, Vicksburg, Miss., had observed the Fourth of July. “Since both Georgia and Mississippi have been out of step for so long,” Rep. Brown said, “I suggest you rule both of these fellows out of order.” Speaker Rayburn was too busy umpiring the battle to act on that. Reps. Tarver and Rankin were standing toe to toe—almost as close as those tom cats—waving congressional records in each other’s faces. “Now will the gentleman yield?” Rep. Tarver demanded. “I will not,” Rankin cried. “Of course, the gentleman will not yield,” Rep. Tarver shouted, “I protest,” Representative Rankin screamed. “I did not yield and yet this, this gentleman keeps on interrupting and... .” Speaker Rayburn told Representative Tarver to desist. Representative Jessie Sumner of Illinois said she always had. wondered whether. the Congressional Record was supposed to print what congressmen said—or what they would have liked to say. She sald there was a différence. Came then a peate-maker, Representative Matthew M.
