                 MEASURE READ THE FIRST TIME--H.R. 1009

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, it is my understanding that H.R. 1009 has 
been received from the House and is now at the desk.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator is correct.
  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I ask for its first reading.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report the bill by title.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (H.R. 1009) to repeal the prohibition on the payment 
     of interest on demand deposits.

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I ask for its second reading but object to 
my own request on behalf of other Members.
