                           of south carolina

                    in the house of representatives

                     Wednesday, September 22, 1999

  Mr. SPRATT. Mr. Chairman, I would like to ask that I might have a 
statement placed in the Record. On rollcall vote No. 430 on the bill 
H.R. 1402, I mistakenly voted ``yes'' when in fact I intended to vote 
``no'' on this amendment.
