    ANNOUNCEMENT REGARDING FURTHER AMENDMENTS ON H.R. 10, FINANCIAL 
                    SERVICES COMPETITION ACT OF 1997

  (Mr. SOLOMON asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. SOLOMON. Mr. Speaker, I rise to inform the House of a schedule 
change on H.R. 10, and that is the Financial Services Act of 1998.
  Out of concern for the scheduling interest of Members on both sides 
of the aisle, the majority leader has agreed to consider this 
legislation on the House floor next week instead of this week. As a 
result, the Committee on Rules will extend the time for filing of 
amendments from 5 p.m. Tuesday; that is, today, until 5 p.m. on 
Wednesday, May 6, tomorrow.
  The Committee on Rules will then hold a hearing on a rule at 12 noon 
on Thursday, May 7, the day after tomorrow. The committee will then 
meet to grant a rule early next week, probably on Tuesday.
  Any Member who wishes to offer an amendment should submit 55 copies 
and a brief explanation of the amendment by Wednesday, May 6, at 5 p.m. 
to the Committee on Rules in Room H-312 of the Capitol.
