         MEASURES READ FOR THE FIRST TIME--S. 269, 270, AND 271

  Mr. LOTT. Mr. Chief Justice, there are three bills at the desk. I ask 
the bills be considered read the first time. I further ask the bills be 
read a second time en bloc, and I object to my own request.
  The CHIEF JUSTICE. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. LOTT. The bills will be read a second time on the next 
legislative date, as I understand it.
  The CHIEF JUSTICE. The leader is correct.
  The bills read the first time are as follows:

       S. 269, a bill to state the policy of the United States 
     regarding the deployment of a missile defense system capable 
     of defending the territory of the United States against 
     limited ballistic missile attack;
       S. 270, a bill to improve pay and retirement equity for 
     members of the Armed Forces; and for other purposes;
       S. 271, a bill to provide for education flexibility 
     partnerships.
