                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. KYL. Mr. President, this morning, the Senate will conduct a 
period of morning business for up to 60 minutes, with the Democratic 
leader or his designee in control of the first 30 minutes and the 
majority leader or his designee in control of the final 30 minutes. 
Following morning business, the Senate will resume consideration of the 
Department of Defense authorization bill.
  Chairman Warner and Senator Levin will be here all day, working 
through amendments. As the leader announced last night, we were able to 
lock in a finite list of first-degree amendments to the bill, and 
Senators are encouraged to work with the bill managers so we can finish 
this bill this week or early next week.
  On behalf of the leader, I remind Senators that the Senate will stand 
in recess from 12:30 p.m. to 2:15 p.m. to accommodate the Democratic 
policy luncheon, and that at 5 p.m. there will be a reception honoring 
Senators Akaka, Hollings, Inouye, Lautenberg, Stevens, and Warner, who 
are all veterans of the Second World War. We will devote the hour prior 
to the reception for speeches honoring their service.


                           Order of Procedure

  I now ask unanimous consent that there be a period of morning 
business today from 4 to 5 p.m., with the time equally divided between 
the two leaders or their designees.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so 
ordered.
