                           ORDER OF PROCEDURE

  Mr. DOLE. Mr. President, we have been unsuccessful in working out an 
agreement with the Senator from Minnesota. It is unfortunate. We would 
have hoped he would come to the floor and use some of the time this 
evening. He has refused to do that. So it seems to me, if you cannot 
get anybody to cooperate, there is no reason to worry about the 
rescission package and I am not going to worry about it. Somebody else 
can worry about it from now on. I have talked to the President about it 
today. I have talked to the chief of staff at the White House. We 
thought we had an agreement. We cannot get the agreement.
  I am going to ask consent and let somebody object to the agreement as 
soon as we can find an objector. I wish it were the Senator from 
Minnesota, Senator Wellstone, since he is the one who we are trying to 
accommodate. It is hard to do.
  So, tomorrow we will have morning business from 9 to 10, then we will 
go on to the legislative branch appropriations. And hopefully, 
following that, military construction appropriations. And perhaps, 
maybe by then we will be able to go back to the reg reform bill, S. 
343.
