Mr. McCLELLAN. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the pending matter be temporarily laid aside and that the Senate proceed to the consideration of House Joint Resolution 1105, making certain appropriations. The Senate has already granted unanimous consent to proceed with this measure.
Will the Senator yield for my purpose without losing his right to the floor?
Mr. MOSS. I am willing to yield without losing my right to the floor and that it not be construed as the end of a speech at this point.
Mr. MUSKIE. Reserving the right to object. I do not object for the reason that this Senator already had received unanimous consent to take this matter up at any time, but I want to put the Senate on notice that it is not a precedent for yielding for similar requests this afternoon. I do not object.
The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
