                                     House of Representatives,

       Dear Madame Speaker: This is to notify you formally, 
     pursuant to rule VIII of the Rules of the House of 
     Representatives, that I, Paul D. Irving, in my capacity as 
     Chair of the Capitol Police Board, have been served with a 
     subpoena for testimony issued by the United States District 
     Court for District of Columbia.
       After consultation with the Office of General Counsel, I 
     have determined that compliance with the subpoena is 
     consistent with the privileges and rights of the House.
           Sincerely,
                                                   Paul D. Irving,
     Sergeant at Arms.
