                      MEASURES READ THE FIRST TIME

  The following bill was read the first time:

       S. 989. A bill to ensure that a Federal employee who takes 
     leave without pay in order to perform service as a member of 
     the uniformed services or member of the National Guard shall 
     continue to receive pay in an amount which, when taken 
     together with the pay and allowances such individual is 
     receiving for such service, will be no less than the basic 
     pay such individual would then be receiving if no 
     interruption in employment had occurred.
