A member may nt any time question the presence of a quo rum and If the speaker does not find a quorum present h.v actual count the roll I . culled signal bells ring In the corii^' is, restaurant and house offiei building so that members may appear and answer to their mimes. When' ei er n member Is feurtul tlmt some­ thing will be done which he doesn't wiint done except by consideration of tlie w hole house, he cun raise the ques­ tion of a quorum and n quorum must tie s» m u red before business Is further considered. A quorum In the housi consists of a majority of Its meiuliershlp. There are 485 members when all are alive and there are no vacancies—although there are often two or three vaenndes on account of death or resignation. So It usually requires 21T or 218 members to make a quorum. When the house Is doing business as the committee ot the whole US' members make a quo- I rum Reasons for Damandins • Quorum. The point of no quorum Is raised often because n mem er mints a full attendance when tin question before the house Is considered It Is raised sometimes because some one present wants a gisal audience for an im|mrt ant apiM'ch.
