i thank the gentleman for those comments and would make it clear to the house , mr. speaker , that of course one of the considerations is members are trying to get back .  they have had 17 hours notice of reconvening and with the vote to occur at 12 , obviously , 9 o'clock will have been 14 hours , and the reason we did not want to go sooner is because there are members on either side of this question who would want to make their positions known .  so that is the reason for our concern .  so i appreciate the gentleman 's comment , and my expectation then is that we will go back in at 9. mr. speaker , i withdraw my reservation of objection under those representations .  the speaker ?  is there objection to the request of the gentleman from texas ?  there was no objection .
