  POSTPONEMENT OF MOTIONS TO SUSPEND RULES CONSIDERED BY THE HOUSE ON 
         MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1997 TO MONDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1997

  Mr. GILMAN. Mr. Speaker, according to the majority leader's 
previously announced schedule that we would wind up our business at 3 
p.m., therefore, I am going to make the following unanimous-consent 
request and then move to adjourn so that the Jewish Members can observe 
their high holy days.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that further consideration of 
the remaining motions to suspend the rules postponed from Monday be 
postponed until Monday, October 6, 1997.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from New York?
  Mr. WATT of North Carolina. Mr. Speaker, reserving the right to 
object, I just want to ask the gentleman a question. Would the votes be 
after 5 Monday?
  Mr. ARMEY. Mr. Speaker, the votes would be for a long time after 5.
  Mr. WATT of North Carolina. Mr. Speaker, I withdraw my reservation of 
objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from New York?
  There was no objection.
