                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. HELMS. Mr. President, today the Senate will resume consideration 
of S. 1415, the tobacco legislation. There are several amendments still 
pending to the bill, and it is hoped those issues can be disposed of at 
an early hour so that the Senate can consider additional amendments to 
the tobacco bill.
  Rollcall votes, therefore, are expected throughout today's session of 
the Senate. As a reminder to all Members, there are a number of items 
that the Senate may also resume, or begin, or both, including the 
Department of Defense authorization bill, the conference reports as 
they may become available, and any appropriations bills that are ready 
for action. As always, other executive or legislative matters may be 
considered as they are cleared.
  On behalf of the majority leader, I thank my colleagues for their 
attention.
  Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that with respect to the 
tobacco legislation the debate be in order only until 10:30 this 
morning.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mr. Santorum). Without objection, it is so 
ordered.
