                     RECESS UNTIL 11 A.M. TOMORROW

  Mr. WARNER. Mr. President, if there is no further business to come 
before the Senate, I first wish my colleague from Kentucky a merry 
Christmas.
  Mr. FORD. Mr. President, may I also wish my distinguished friend and 
colleague from Virginia a merry Christmas, a happy new year, and a 
successful 1996.
  Let me say, Mr. President, also, that we thank you for being here. It 
is late. Everybody else basically has gone home. We are here trying to 
do the Government's and the institution's business.
  Let me thank the staff because if they were not here and dedicated we 
would have a difficult time getting through.
  So I want the record to show that we appreciate the staff and all 
their work.
  I thank my friend.
  Mr. WARNER. Mr. President, I further join with my friend in 
expressing appreciation to the staff present in the Chamber, and 
throughout the Senate, the considerable infrastructure that is 
required, as we well know.
  I now ask that the Senate stand in recess, under the previous order.
  There being no objection, the Senate, at 6:54 p.m., recessed until 
Saturday, December 23, 1995, at 11 a.m.
