                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. THOMAS. Mr. President, for the information of all Senators, the 
Senate will be in a period for morning business until 10:30 a.m. It is 
expected the House will vote this morning on a continuing resolution 
that funds the Government through Monday, December 11. The Senate will 
have a voice vote on the resolution as soon as it is received from the 
House. Therefore, no votes will occur during today's session of the 
Senate. On Monday, an additional CR will be necessary. However, it is 
hoped that a vote will not be needed on that resolution on Monday. I 
thank my colleagues for their attention.
  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I suggest the absence of a quorum.
  The PRESIDENT pro tempore. The clerk will call the roll.
  The assistant legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.
  Mr. STEVENS. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the order 
for the quorum call be rescinded.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.

                          ____________________
