                      HOUR OF MEETING ON TOMORROW

  Mr. MOAKLEY. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that when the House 
adjourns today it adjourn to meet at 10:30 a.m. today
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from Massachusetts?
  Mr. SOLOMON. Reserving the right to object, Mr. Speaker, I am just 
concerned. This means that we do not come into session in the Congress 
until what time?
  Mr. MOAKLEY. Mr. Speaker, will the gentleman yield?
  Mr. SOLOMON. I yield to the gentleman from Massachusetts.
  Mr. MOAKLEY. Mr. Speaker, we would meet at 10:30 a.m.
  Mr. SOLOMON. Mr. Speaker, I am wondering whether this has anything to 
do with morning hours. Earlier today the majority leader received 
unanimous consent to have us come in one hour early, at 9:30, in order 
to hold morning hours for an hour and a half, in which case we would 
have not started the regular session of Congress until 11 o'clock. Now 
I understand the gentleman is reversing that, and I am just wondering 
why.
  Mr. MOAKLEY. It is because of the late hour we worked. We thought we 
would get out of here at a reasonable time, and we worked so late that 
we are just going to come in tomorrow morning at the usual time.
  Mr. SOLOMON. Does this give some relief to the staff? Does this mean 
the staff can come in an hour later on the floor here?
  Mr. MOAKLEY. The gentleman is correct.
  Mr. SOLOMON. If that is the case, Mr. Speaker, I have no objection.
  Mr. Speaker, I withdraw my reservation of objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from Massachusetts?
  There was no objection.
