  POSSIBLE VOTE ON HOUSE RESOLUTION 463, DISAPPROVAL OF MOST-FAVORED-
                       NATION TREATMENT FOR CHINA

  (Mr. SOLOMON asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. SOLOMON. Mr. Speaker, I would say to my good friend, the ranking 
member of the Rules Committee, that we are about to take up the rule on 
the motion to disapprove most-favored-nation treatment for China. We do 
not expect to call for a vote over here even though all of our time 
will probably be used.
  Mr. Speaker, I would just ask the gentleman if he expects anybody on 
his side of the aisle to call for a vote on this rule this evening.
  Mr. MOAKLEY. Mr. Speaker, will the gentleman yield?
  Mr. SOLOMON. I yield to the gentleman from Massachusetts.
  Mr. MOAKLEY. Mr. Speaker, we have requests for time, we do not have 
any requests for votes, and I am not going to call for a vote.
  Mr. SOLOMON. Therefore, we would not anticipate a vote on the rule 
although there is not any guarantee.
  Mr. MOAKLEY. The gentleman is exactly right.
