                      CONGRATULATING SENATOR REED

  Mr. FEINGOLD. Mr. President, before the Senator from Rhode Island 
leaves, I want to be the first proud Senator to congratulate him on his 
first speech in the Senate. It is very appropriate that the speech was 
about a topic that he knows a great deal about, education, and, of 
course, in so doing he follows in the footsteps of his predecessor, 
Senator Claiborne Pell. I just want to say on behalf of my colleagues 
how delighted we are that he has joined us here. I look forward to 
learning from him and working with him, particularly on the subject of 
education, Mr. President.
  Mr. REED. I thank the distinguished Senator, Mr. President.
