                           ORDER OF PROCEDURE

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I know the Democratic leader is going to 
make a statement, and I don't know if the majority leader is going to 
make one. I am wondering if I could ask unanimous consent that the 
majority and minority have a full half hour on each side today, 
irrespective of the statements of the two leaders.
  Mr. FRIST. Without objection, and I will not be making a statement 
this morning and would recommend that we go straight to morning 
business at the appropriate time.
  The PRESIDENT pro tempore. It is the Chair's understanding that there 
be a full hour equally divided, following the comments of the 
leadership; is that correct?
  Mr. REID. That is right.
  The PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so ordered.

                          ____________________
