          set forth supra.  The first paragraph of the Committee report’s              
          explanation of the bill is identical to the corresponding                    
          paragraph of the Ways and Means Committee’s report which is                  
          identical to the Committee report explanations of the same                   
          amendment as introduced on June 10, 1987 in H.R. 2636 and S.

          amendments to the definitions of “investment interest” and                   
          “personal interest” are identical to the descriptions in the                 
          staff pamphlet describing the introduced bill which are identical            
          to the 1987 committee report explanations of the same amendments,            
          set forth supra.  Id. at 35, 36.                                             
               The Senate considered S. 2238 and, after completing work on             
          floor amendments, called up the House-passed bill (H.R. 4333),               
          substituted the text of S. 2238 as amended, passed H.R. 4333 as              
          so amended, and asked for a conference.  134 Cong. Rec. 29792

          investment interest and personal interest definitions being                  
          identical, they were approved without further explanation by the             
          conference committee.  H. Conf. Rept. 100-1104, Vol. I at 53, 54,
