The announcement of voluntary violence warnings is an important, commendable first step in dealing with this crucial issue.

I encourage the broadcast industry, the creators and producers, as well as the advertisers who support network programming, to take full responsibility in limiting the amount of televised violence.

I commend the networks for this initial effort and encourage you to continue to find ways to make your programming suitable for the children and youth of this nation.

This order is effective immediately.

These steps also demonstrate unflinching support through our foreign policy of the return of democracy to Haiti.

I am particularly glad that Richard Holbrooke will be serving our country as Ambassador to Germany.

These measures are called for in recognition of the urgent need for an early, comprehensive, and peaceful settlement of the crisis in Haiti.

We are continuing the process of putting together a strong and effective staff at the Department of Defense.

We must continue to find ways to limit the excessive portrayal of violence in our television programming.

The people we are adding to our foreign policy team today are men of tremendous achievement and character.

I expressed enormous admiration for the fact that Argentina has the deepest topsoil anywhere in the world.

Well, we'll deal with those as they arise.

I commend the bravery and endurance of the many midwesterners facing torrents of rain and rivers that have not yet crested.

I hereby delegate to the United States Trade Representative the powers granted the President:

We intend to speed the recovery of the affected communities and ensure disaster victims receive the help they need as rapidly as possible.

Clearly, this is one of the most significant natural disasters midwestern residents, business owners, and agricultural producers have faced in a very long time.

Freer trade promotes the kind of economic and democratic reforms we see in Argentina.

I think small businesses should really be limited in what they're required to pay by the Government.
