          ORDER FOR RECOGNITION OF SENATORS THOMPSON AND GLENN

  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that at 4 p.m. 
today,

[[Page S700]]

Senator Thompson be recognized to speak for up to 20 minutes, to be 
followed by Senator Glenn for up to 20 minutes.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, I note that this is the chairman, in the 
case of Senator Thompson, and the ranking Democrat, in the case of 
Senator Glenn, of the Governmental Affairs Committee. These members 
have been charged with leadership of the Governmental Affairs 
Committee, which will be looking into questions of possible violations 
of campaign finance laws. They will set out, I am sure, here this 
afternoon at this designated hour how they intend to proceed and give 
us some idea of what timeframe might be involved in that. So I know all 
Senators will want to watch and listen. I think this will be a very 
important and a very interesting presentation.
