                              ADJOURNMENT

  Mr. SPECTER. Mr. President, on behalf of the majority leader, I ask 
unanimous consent that the Senate stand in adjournment for 1 minute and 
that, immediately following the reconvening of the Senate, time for the 
two leaders be reserved, the Journal of proceedings be deemed approved 
to date, no resolutions come over under the rule, the call of the 
calendar be dispensed with, the morning hour be deemed to have expired, 
and that I be recognized as if in morning business.
  There being no objection, at 1:06 p.m., the Senate adjourned until 
1:07 p.m. the same day.
  The Senate met at 1:07 p.m., and was called to order by the Honorable 
Mike DeWine, a Senator from the State of Ohio.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Pennsylvania is recognized.
  Mr. SPECTER. Mr. President, parliamentary inquiry. For the benefit of 
those in the gallery and whoever may be watching on C-SPAN 2 and for 
me, too, we now have a new legislative day.
  Would the Chair, without reference to the Parliamentarian, explain 
the procedural purpose?
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. To qualify resolutions to go to committees.
  Mr. SPECTER. I thank the Chair and the Parliamentarian, Mr. Dove.
