                 PROGRAM FOR WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 6, 1999

  Mr. DeWINE. Again, on behalf of the majority leader, I understand 
that all legislative and Executive Calendar items that can be cleared 
have been considered by the Senate. I thank all of my colleagues for 
their cooperation during the 105th Congress.
  As was stated earlier, the 106th Congress will convene at 12 noon on 
Wednesday, January 6, 1999, as provided for in House Joint Resolution 
138.
  Following the opening prayer on January 6, the Vice President will 
proceed to administer the oaths of office to all returning Senators and 
Senators-elect in alphabetical order.
  Immediately following the conclusion of the oaths of office, a quorum 
call will commence to establish that a quorum is present for the 106th 
Congress to begin.
  All Senators will be notified as to the first day on which 
legislation will be permitted to be introduced as soon as that date 
becomes available.
  Again, on behalf of the majority leader, I thank all of my colleagues 
for what I believe was a productive 105th Congress and look forward to 
further success in the 106th Congress.
