                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

  Mr. JONES of North Carolina. Madam Speaker, due to a pre-existing 
commitment to visit wounded heroes at Walter Reed Army Medical Center, 
I missed three rollcall votes this morning. I ask that the Record show 
that had I been present: For rollcall No. 1156--Ordering the Previous 
Question on H. Res. 869--I would have voted ``nay''; for rollcall No. 
1157--Ordering the Previous Question H. Res. 859--I would have voted 
``nay''; for rollcall No. 1158--Adoption of the Rule of consideration 
of the conference report on H.R. 2082--I would have voted ``nay.''
