                         EXECUTIVE NOMINATIONS

  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, I now have a list of Executive nominations 
which have been cleared on both sides.
  We have been working on this for several days. A number of these 
nominations were running the risk of not being confirmed, or possibly 
having recess appointments, which we would like to avoid. This list 
includes Executive calendar nominations and nominations to be 
discharged from several committees and confirmed.
  In executive session, I ask unanimous consent that the nominations I 
send to the desk be confirmed, the motions to reconsider be laid upon 
the table, the President be immediately notified of the Senate's 
action, and the Senate then resume legislative session.
  I add that this list is comprised of approximately 41 nominations, 
plus an additional list of almost 400 Foreign Service career officers.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  The nominations were considered and confirmed en bloc, as follows:

       Claude A. Allen, of Virginia, to be a Member of the Board 
     of Directors of the African Development Foundation for a term 
     expiring September 22, 2005.

     Board of Directors of the African Development Foundation for

     ending Mark Young, which nominations were received by the 
     Senate and appeared in the Congressional Record on October 6,
