Excerpt from Principles of Procedure in Deliberative Bodies
This manual is not a collection Of arbitrary rules. It sets forth what is generally known as parliamentary procedure in a consistent system, every part of which is founded on good and sufficient reasons.
A person who has mastered the general principles Of procedure can readily learn and apply the special rules and methods governing the legislative or municipal body to which he may have been elected.
The questions Of procedure which may arise are innumerable, and they become peculiarly perplexing so soon as there is a departure from correct methods. It must not be expected that a direct answer to all such questions can be found in any book. In cases not directly covered, the best guides are common sense and fair dealing.
