                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

                                 ______


                          HON. CASS BALLENGER

                           of north carolina

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, July 26, 1994

  Mr. BALLENGER. Mr. Speaker, I was absent for roll call vote number 
349. Because H.R. 3838, the Housing and Community Development Act of 
1994, does not heavily rely on authorizing new programs, streamlines 
many existing assistance programs, and generally reflects our current 
budget constraints, had I been present, I would have voted ``aye'' on 
final passage of the bill.
