                       MEASURE PLACED ON CALENDAR

  Mr. BENNETT. Mr. President, I understand there is a bill at the desk 
due for its second reading.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (H.R. 17) to amend the Agricultural Trade Act of 
     1978 to require the President to report to Congress on any 
     selective embargo on agricultural commodities, to provide a 
     termination date for the embargo, to provide greater 
     assurances for contract sanctity, and for other purposes.

  Mr. BENNETT. Mr. President, I object to further proceedings on the 
bill at this time.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The bill will go to the calendar.
