                            FISCAL YEAR 1998

  Mr. SPENCE. Mr. Speaker, pursuant to section 5 of House Resolution 
169, I ask unanimous consent that during further consideration of H.R. 
1119 in the Committee of the Whole, and following consideration of the 
Luther amendment referred to in part 1 of House Resolution 169, the 
following amendments be considered in the following order:
  Amendments No. 22 and 41, printed in part 2 of House Report 105-137;
  The amendment printed in section 8(e) contained in House Resolution 
169; and
  Amendment 15, printed in part 2 of House Report 105-137, as modified 
by section 8(b) of House Resolution 169.
  And, Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that this be considered 
sufficient notice for the purposes of section 5 of House Resolution 
169.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. LaHood). Is there objection to the 
request of the gentleman from South Carolina?
  Mr. DELLUMS. Mr. Speaker, reserving the right to object, and I do not 
intend to object, but I would simply like to ask the question: Have all 
of the persons who the distinguished Chair has laid out as authors of 
amendments that we will address during the remaining period of this 
session today been notified as to the agreement?
  Mr. SPENCE. Yes, we have made every attempt to notify them and we 
believe they have been. I have not checked every one to make sure, but 
we, as we talk, will be contacting the others.
  Mr. DELLUMS. Mr. Speaker, I withdraw my reservation of objection and, 
with those admonishments, trust the word of the Chair.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Without objection, the notice shall be 
considered sufficient.
  There was no objection.
