Patrick Moynihan

If I may add, the citizens of Tonawanda, through their elected officials, have engaged our offices and have asked Senator D'Amato and me to request that the Congress give direction to the Department of Energy in order to start the process…

Yes. Both Taiwan and South Korea have now established freely elected governments. If they were suddenly to be overthrown by a military coup, our position would have to be, in my view, very different. But it is just such a situation in…

I do not claim that this is something easily done or we would have done it long since. But I think that it is something which can be done. I think the Republic of South Korea is so little interested in how we feel about matters of Burma…

If people want to speak, they better show up. There is no Senator on this floor wishing to speak on this matter. I have not been informed of any. I have been told that there might be, but there comes a time when that will no longer do.

There will be no objection on this side of the aisle to the proposal to strike that will now be made. But may I point out that after a not inconsiderable debate, the Committee on Finance, following the lead of its distinguished chairman…

Would he not agree that this can be changed, but that if the bill is to go to conference, since we cannot bring it back up, it is possible for it to go to conference with an understanding on the part of the conferees that they will not…

He used the word ``threat,'' but then said ``promise.'' The point here is that we had an understanding. Would he not agree we had an understanding?

If I could make one inquiry of the Senator from Missouri. There is significant time sensitivity to this issue, is there not? What happens to the SBIC Participating Security Program if we do not resolve this issue soon?

May I just thank the Senator from Vermont. The remark by Mr. Deyo, ``I'm proud to be a working man. I only wish I could make a living,'' needs to be underscored.

I am sure I could speak for the Senate in expressing our appreciation to the Senator from Virginia for his services as an election observer in that distinguished company, and the auspicious outcome. But perhaps not sufficiently noticed, we…

Exactly. What I cannot understand--and I do not think the Senator from Maryland can help me--is that I thought this was all understood 50 years ago. Evidently not. We will find out tomorrow.

I wanted for say how emphatically I support each of the statements we have just heard. It is embarrassing at this point in the 20th century that we have to go to this effort just to maintain the value of an economic guarantee that has been…

Could I just say that the present reports on the unemployment rate at 5.3 percent and the increasing reports of labor shortages around the country mean if ever there was a moment in which to make this appropriate adjustment, maintaining…

In President Kennedy's proposal for the redevelopment of Pennsylvania Avenue, which we are talking about, he said the avenue "should be lively, friendly, and inviting, as well as dignified and impressive." I think we can achieve that in…

I propose to discourse at some length on Alfred Marshall's ``Principles of Economics'' published in 1890.

I say to my friend that not only would it be inconsistent, but to allude to a point he made earlier, it would be ``silly.''

Something called the ``market'' comes along and the price rises because of the demand. The supply has not instantly responded.

I feel that while the 2-week extension is urgent and absolutely indispensable, we ought to do more. And with the conclusion of this part of our debate, I will proceed, when the chairman is ready, to offer an amendment that would in fact…

I am concerned that the level of funding in the bill for international educational exchanges will seriously impinge on the ability of AIIS to adequately fill the research demands of U.S. scholars in India. I would therefore seek assurance…

I say to my two colleagues that in 1974 President Nixon asked me to go to New Delhi as Ambassador in his second. At that time relations between our two nations were somewhat strained. The two largest democracies in the world should not…

The Senator from Ohio has pointed out clearly something I find painful. In the very long time that I have been in this city I have never seen legislation imposing more regulatory requirements on State governments by the Federal Government…

I believe we erred in the description of the Senator from Rhode Island as an acting manager. I think he is very much a manager.

I rise to acknowledge what would be, not the first time, an error. I said recently just a moment ago that the Department of Health and Human Services has been silent on the subject of this atrocious legislation. I am wrong, sir. I have…

Again, in response to my friend, it is the fact that in the 1992 campaign, then candidate, now President Clinton proposed to end welfare as we know it. In an address to Georgetown University opening his campaign in 1991, he proposed a…

I do not ask a response. I do not expect a response. But I would like to put that new Iowa Family Investment Program in the Record at this point, Mr. President. It is one page. There being no objection, the material was ordered to be…
