         AUTHORIZING PRINTING OF ``THE UNITED STATES CAPITOL''

  Mr. EHLERS. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that the Committee 
on House Administration be discharged from further consideration of the 
Senate concurrent resolution (S. Con. Res. 141) to authorize the 
printing of copies of the publication entitled ``The United States 
Capitol'' as a Senate document, and ask for its immediate consideration 
in the House.
  The Clerk read the title of the Senate concurrent resolution.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from Michigan?
  There was no objection.
  The Clerk read the Senate concurrent resolution, as follows:

                            S. Con. Res. 141

       Resolved by the Senate (the House of Representatives 
     concurring), That (a) a revised edition of the publication 
     entitled ``The United States Capitol'' (referred to as ``the 
     pamphlet'') shall be reprinted as a Senate document.
       (b) There shall be printed a total of 2,850,000 copies of 
     the pamphlet in English and seven other languages at a cost 
     not to exceed $165,900 for distribution as follows:
       (1)(A) 206,000 copies of the pamphlet in the English 
     language for the use of the Senate with 2,000 copies 
     distributed to each Member;
       (B) 886,000 copies of the pamphlet in the English language 
     for the use of the House of Representatives with 2,000 copies 
     distributed to each Member; and
       (C) 1,758,000 copies of the pamphlet for distribution to 
     the Capitol Guide Service in the following languages:
       (i) 908,000 copies in English;
       (ii) 100,000 copies in each of the following seven 
     languages: Spanish, German, French, Russian, Japanese, 
     Italian, and Korean; and
       (iii) 150,000 copies in Chinese.
       (2) If the total printing and production costs of copies in 
     paragraph (1) exceed $165,900, such number of copies of the 
     pamphlet as does not exceed total printing and production 
     costs of $165,900, shall be printed with distribution to be 
     allocated in the same proportion as in paragraph (1) as it 
     relates to numbers of copies in the English language.

  The Senate concurrent resolution was concurred in.
  A motion to reconsider was laid on the table.
