                            LEAVE OF ABSENCE

  Mr. DOLE. Mr. President, I announce that the Senator from Utah [Mr. 
Hatch] is necessarily absent from the Senate. He is attending the 
meeting of the International Olympic Committee in Budapest, Hungary, 
along with the delegation of officials from Utah and the United States 
Olympic Committee.
  Salt Lake City was earlier selected as America's choice to host the 
2002 Winter Olympic Games, and a final vote on site selection will be 
taken by the IOC at their meeting in Budapest. Senator Hatch is in 
attendance at these important meetings in support of Salt Lake City to 
be the host city and of the United States to be the host country for 
this premier international event.
