  Mr. WARD. Mr. Speaker, due to the fact that I was unavoidably 
detained, I missed several rollcall votes during consideration of H.R. 
1977, Interior and Related Agencies Appropriations bill, on July 13, 
1995. Had I been present on rollcall vote 504, Mr. Hutchinson's 
amendment to eliminate $3.5 million Federal subsidy for the National 
Trust for Historic Preservation, I would have voted ``no.'' Had I been 
present on rollcall vote 505, Mr. Obey's motion for the committee to 
rise, I would have voted ``aye.'' Had I been present on rollcall vote 
506, Mr. Obey's motion for the committee to rise, I would have voted 
``aye.'' Had I been present on rollcall vote 507, Mr. Obey's  
preferential motion for the committee to rise and report bill to House 
with recommendation that the enacting clause be stricken, I would have 
voted ``aye.'' Had I been present on rollcall vote 508, Mr. Obey's 
motion for the committee to rise, I would have voted ``aye.'' Had I 
been present on rollcall vote 509, Mr. Fazio's amendment supporting the 
California Desert Protection Act, I would have voted ``aye.'' Had I 
been present on rollcall vote 510, Mr. Young's amendment striking 
funding for vehicles for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, I would 
have voted ``no.'' Had I been present on rollcall vote 511, Mr. 
Sanders's amendment transferring $3,063,000 into the Advisory Council 
on Historic Preservation, I would have voted ``aye.''
