recognized.


                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. CAMPBELL. Mr. President, on behalf of the leader, today the 
Senate will be in a period of morning business until the hour of 1 p.m. 
to accommodate a number of Senators who have requested time to speak. 
By consent, at 1 p.m. the Senate will begin consideration of S. 104, 
the Nuclear Policy Act. The leader hopes the Senate will be able to 
make substantial progress on this important legislation during today's 
session. Rollcall votes are therefore possible throughout the day, and 
the Senate may be in session into the evening if necessary. As always, 
all Senators will be notified as to when any votes are scheduled. He 
also reminds all Members that we are now beginning a lengthy period of 
legislative session prior to the next scheduled recess, and he also 
asks for the cooperation of all of our colleagues as we attempt to move 
forward and complete action on a number of important issues during this 
period.
  Mr. President, I also ask for about 10 minutes for a statement on a 
bill I am introducing, if I may.
  The PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  (The remarks of Mr. Campbell pertaining to the introduction of S. 528 
are located in today's Record under ``Statements on Introduced Bills 
and Joint Resolutions.'')
  The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mr. Roberts). Who seeks time?
  Mr. THOMAS addressed the Chair.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Wyoming is recognized.
