               MEASURE READ FOR THE FIRST TIME--H.R. 867

  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, I understand that H.R. 867 has arrived from 
the House.
  I ask for its first reading.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mr. DeWine). The clerk will report.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (H.R. 867) to promote the adoption of children in 
     foster care.

  Mr. LOTT. I now ask for its second reading and will object to my own 
request in behalf of the other side of the aisle.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
