From the text:

“And another thing. We can’t have everybody talking at once. We’ll have to have ’Hands up’ like at school.”

He held the conch before his face and glanced round the mouth.

“Then I’ll give him the conch.”

“Conch?”

“That’s what this shell’s called. I’ll give the conch to the next person to speak. He can hold it when he’s speaking.”

“But–”

“Look–”

“And he won’t be interrupted: Except by me.”
