it would be of interest to the Congress to note that in this bill, we have provided funds for a study that would help to determine whether the GPO would be better off contracting out or privatizing the printing of the daily journal. So we are moving in the same direction, I believe, that the offeror of the amendment would like us to go. It is true that the Government Printing Office has lost money, about $60 million over the last 6 years, that the inplant work load has declined by about 17 percent, and that the printing procurement work load has declined by about the same, 17 percent, and that it is realistic to assume that we can reduce the work force further in GPO. Therefore, I am perfectly willing to accept the amendment.
