The republican floor leader thought very little could be done iat this short session outside of passing- the appropriation measures, although he added that no one could say at this time what the legislative program would be. The ' republican caucus rnle, leaders said, prevented member ship on more than one of the primary committees ' In making up the additional membership for the appropriations committee, it was added, "they would . also have to decide the relative rank of the members. The seven corn- appropriations are all primary mittees which formerly made up committees and if any of their members are given places on the appropriations committees they will have to resign from memberr ship on the other committees.
