                               of kansas

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, March 4, 1998

  Mr. TIAHRT. Mr. Speaker, earlier today I missed one vote on H.R. 856, 
The United States-Puerto Rico Political Status Act, because I was 
attending the funeral of former Congressman Garner Shriver in Wichita 
Kansas. Had I been present I would have voted yes on rollcall No. 27.
  I would request that my statement be placed in the appropriate 
location in the Congressional Record.
