FarBamentary Prcce&rt Evo!utioa If you study several texts in parliamentary taw, you will observe a natural continuation of a process of change which began with the fabrication of rules for the conduct of business in the British Parliament's House of Commons. This British code of rules to govern and con trol the methods of handling governmental debates and decisions has been progressively revised until the pre sent. It is a tool of democracy which of necessity arose as the strength of the "commmon" man grew in Bri tain. As the power of kings progressively weakened, more authority was assumed by the nobles., next by the mid dle class, and the success of the Labor Parly after World War One in completing the process. When power passed to a wider representation of the citizenry, more diversii y of leadership accompanied it. If all different claims for control were to be restrained, and reuulaicd, it was necessary to create a system of procedure to guarantee rule by majority. However, at the same time, it was also necessary to allow the minority all persuasive privileges which would contribute toward the minority becoming the future ma jority. In America, when established rules such as Ruben Rules of Order, do not fit local needs, special rules must be written and thus the process of change is further ex tended.
