I would like to take this time to commend the Pennsylvania Family Institute as it celebrates its Tenth Anniversary tonight.

Dr. James Dobson, the guest of honor at tonight's Pennsylvania Family Institute 10th Anniversary Banquet, is an ideal man to speak.

Today, I also want to join the Pennsylvania Family Institute in remembrance of a true hero, William Bentley Ball, Esquire.

Congratulations to the directors, staff and supporters of the Pennsylvania Family Institute for their work in service to Pennsylvania's families.

According to the Alan Guttmacher Institute, the Planned Parenthood research arm, over 10,000 women in the United States begin to deal with an unplanned pregnancy every day.

Many women would choose not to have an abortion if only they knew that other options were available to them.

Thousands of small crisis pregnancy centers, maternity homes and adoption services are available to these women in crisis, but often women do not know that they have such choices.

If today's women need choices, we must offer them real choices.

This solution-based bill builds a bridge between pro-life and pro-choice to offer compassionate solutions to women on common ground.

I urge my colleagues to make this a reality. Support and cosponsor the Women and Children's Resources Act.

The minister of that Republic is disappointed in not having received the copy intended for exchange, and the period will lapse without the possibility of carrying out the provisions of the convention in this respect.

I deem it proper to invite the attention of the Senate to the fact that with this day expires the limitation of time for the exchange of the ratifications of the treaty with Costa Rica of 2d July, 1860.

I submit, therefore, the expediency of the passage of a resolution authorizing the exchange of ratifications at such time as may be convenient, the limitations of the ninth article to the contrary notwithstanding.

Had I refused to adopt this precautionary measure, and evil consequences, which many good men at the time apprehended, had followed, I should never have forgiven myself.

The safety of the immense amount of public property in this city and that of the archives of the Government, in which all the States, and especially the new States in which the public lands are situated, have a deep interest.
