mr. chairman , i move to strike the last word .  i do so in order to have a very brief discussion with the gentleman who is chairman of the authorizing committee .  i think many of you in the house know that i spent a lot of years in my life making an honest living in the life and health insurance business so i know a little bit about this subject .  the gentleman is raising a number of questions that are very legitimate questions .  i do not think there is a conflict here .  i just wanted the gentleman to know that it is my intention to examine these serious questions between now and the time we go to conference .  i am absolutely certain we can at least clear the air on any remaining problems between now and then .
