I was privileged today to go to the Library of Congress where, under the auspices of Mr. Billington, the Librarian of Congress, a very wonderful exhibit is opening entitled-- and I hold up the volume: ``Churchill and the Great Republic.'' The exhibit formally opens tonight. In attendance today were one of Churchill's daughters, his grandson, and other members of the Churchill family. It was a very moving experience. I encourage my colleagues to find time in the next week or 10 days to avail themselves of this very historical exhibit put together by Dr. Billington. The ceremony today, marking the opening, was attended by the President of the United States, and I, together with my good friend Senator Lugar, Senator Bob Bennett, and a number of Members of the House of Representatives, were privileged to be in attendance.
