                           ORDER OF PROCEDURE

  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, in anticipation of the visit by a foreign 
dignitary, so that we can bring him to the floor, I now observe the 
absence of a quorum.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will call the roll.
  The legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.
  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the order for 
the quorum call be rescinded.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, we will be a few minutes yet before the 
foreign dignitary will be able to visit with us in the Chamber, so I 
thought we would go ahead and proceed with the debate. So, I seek 
recognition to speak on the Whitewater committee extension.
