                 MEASURE PLACED ON THE CALENDAR--S. 22

  Mr. REID. It is my belief that S. 22 is at the desk and due for its 
second reading.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The clerk will read the bill for 
the second time.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 22) to designate certain land as components of 
     the National Wilderness Preservation System, to authorize 
     certain programs and activities in the Department of the 
     Interior and the Department of Agriculture, and for other 
     purposes.

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I object to any further proceedings with 
regard to this legislation.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Objection is heard. The bill will 
be placed on the calendar.
  Mr. REID. I suggest the absence of a quorum.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The clerk will call the roll.
  The legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.
  Mr. REID. I ask unanimous consent that the order for the quorum call 
be rescinded.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so 
ordered.
