 COMMUNICATION FROM THE HONORABLE PAUL E. KANJORSKI, MEMBER OF CONGRESS

  The SPEAKER pro tempore laid before the House the following 
communication from the Honorable Paul E. Kanjorski:

                                Congress of the United States,

                                    Washington, DC, July 20, 1994.
     Hon. Thomas S. Foley,
     Speaker, U.S. House of Representatives,
     Washington, DC.
       Dear Mr. Speaker: The purpose of this letter is to notify 
     you pursuant to Rule L (50) of the Rules of the House that I 
     have been served with a subpoena issued by the United States 
     Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania for 
     materials related to a bankruptcy case.
       This subpoena was issued to my office at 3:30 p.m. on July 
     19, 1994, seeking my presence and documents in Bankruptcy 
     Court at 10:00 a.m., July 20, 1994, when I will be in 
     Washington conducting official business.
       After consultation with the General Counsel, he has 
     determined that compliance with the subpoena at this time is 
     not consistent with the privileges and precedents of the 
     House. I acknowledge his determination and have agreed not to 
     provide documents which might infringe on the rights of the 
     House of Representatives.
           Sincerely,
                                                Paul E. Kanjorski,
     Member of Congress.
