I am privileged to sign the Hoover and Truman memorial legislation.

The bill would be unfair to the American consumer and the American farmer.

It would erect a non-tariff trade barrier at a time when we are trying to persuade other nations to dismantle theirs.

I HAVE signed two bills that honor former Presidents Herbert Hoover and Harry S. Truman.

I HAVE signed into law S. 1017, the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act.

This is the most significant trade legislation passed by the Congress since the beginning of trade agreement programs some four decades ago.

I HAVE withheld my approval from H.R. 17085.

Today’s very different outlook is not reflected in this bill.

It will mean more and better jobs for American workers, with additional purchasing power for the American consumer.

We must succeed. I believe we will.

This measure would authorize excessive appropriations levels--more than $650 million over the three fiscal years covered by the bill.

It will lend greater uniformity, accessibility, and intelligibility to Federal rules of evidence.

The act will enable Americans to work with others to achieve expansion of the international flow of goods and services.

The Federal taxpayer can and should selectively assist nursing schools to achieve educational reforms and innovations in support of that objective.

We must concentrate Federal efforts on the shortage of certain nurse specialists, and persistent geographic maldistribution.

I salute the efforts of the Advisory Committee on Rules of Evidence and the Standing Committee on Rules of Practice and Procedure of the Judicial Conference of the United States.

I believe nurses have played and will continue to play an invaluable role in the delivery of health services.

I HAVE approved H.R. 5463, a bill establishing for the first time in our history uniform rules of evidence on the admissibility of proof in Federal court proceedings.
