CENTER FOR THE STUDY OF THE PRESIDENCY
The Center for the Study of the Presidency is a non-profit, non-partisan
education foundation. Founded on the recommendation of the late President
Dwight D. Eisenhower, the Center was the first public policy institute devoted to the
study of the American Presidency. It is the only institution in which all of the
living former Presidents are honorary Co-Chairs. Under the direction of Dr. R.
Gordon Hoxie, the Center works with each administration in studies on transition,
organization and policy.
Working with over 500 colleges and universities across the country, the
Center aims to build better citizens, government and leaders through education and
information. In addition, the Center seeks to provide communication, education
and support to international friends, particularly those in Eastern Europe and the
former Soviet Union, Asia and the Americas.
The Center's programs include:
Fellowship Program
Twenty-five outstanding undergraduate students are selected annually to serve as Center
Fellows. These scholars aid in the planning and management of Center Symposia, serve as
moderators for panel discussions featuring the nation's foremost Presidential scholars, and
participate in high level briefings at the White House, Congress and leading think tanks. In
addition, each Fellow is responsible for submitting a major research work on an issue related to
the Presidency. A high percentage of Center Fellows have become Rhodes Scholars at Oxford.
Annual Student Symposium
Each Spring, this unique three day event brings 800 student leaders and faculty from throughout
the United States and other nations to Washington, DC., where they attend lectures and
addresses by public policy makers and business leaders, and participate in discussions on
national security, economic and social issues. Events include a VIP White House Tour and
State Department briefing.
Annual Leadership Conference
Held annually each Fall, in various locations in the United States and Canada, this event is
attended by student, faculty, business and government leaders. Attendees participate in
workshops and seminars focusing on the national agenda, including domestic and foreign policy
issues.
Annual Anniversary Program
Held each June this day-long program brings several hundred of the Nation's business leaders to
Washington. Events include a White House briefing, a luncheon and televised panel symposium
for business and policy leaders, as well as the Annual Awards Dinner which honors three
distinguished Americans for their service to the Nation.
Harry J. Sievers Memorial Lecture Series
Founded in 1969, this series is held at Fordham University's Lincoln Center Campus. Lectures
include leading journalists, Cabinet members and senior White House staff, Congressional
leaders and scholars from other nations, focusing on national and international concerns.
Publications and Information Center
The Center's publications include the award-winning and prestigious Presidential Studies
Quarterly and the distinguished Proceedings Series. A leading source of information on public
policy issues, the Center provides material for corporations, media, colleges and universities,
students and the general public.

Democracy in Transition:
Keeping America #1
1992-93 Annual Report
CENTER FOR THE STUDY OF THE PRESIDENCY
During the past year, the triumph of freedom over tyranny has changed
the landscape of global relations with such swift and dramatic finality that
the world is struggling to keep pace. As newly freed peoples cast aside the
chains of totalitarianism and embraced democracy, they commonly looked
to the United States as a shining example of government "of the people,
by the people, and for the people."
Yet we well know that the road to representative government is not an easy
one, which is why the ongoing efforts of the Center for the Study of the
Presidency are so important. Through your outstanding lectures, confer-
ences, fellowships, and publications, you continue to play a significant role
in promoting greater understanding of the democratic process in our own
country and throughout the world.
I am also pleased to note the Center's work with students, reflecting your
commitment to educate the future leaders of our Republic.

The National People of Color Council on AIDS, Inc. (NPCCA) would like to request your

We would like to ask you to make an appearance on behalf of President Bill Clinton at
our rally on Saturday, June 2. President Clinton has been an ardent supporter of my
efforts involving HIV/AIDS in Georgia.
We also would like your assistance along with U.S. Rep. Mfume Kweisi in arranging a
brief (5-minute) video with President Clinton. The video would be shown during our
opening ceremony to inspire our volunteers and supporters. We would like to have
Grammy award-winning singer Peabo Bryson, our Honorary National Chairman, Rep.
Kweisi and myself in the video. After the President makes a short statement of support,
we would like to have him shake my hand and present me with his lotter of support

The Center for the Study of the Presidency is a non-profit educational corporation
chartered by the Board of Regents of the State of New York. It was inspired by the late
President Dwight D. Eisenhower who envisioned a center where "students, old and
young," using the best tools of scholarship, could study the Presidency; a center
characterized by accuracy, objectivity and perspective."
CENTER FOR THE STUDY OF THE PRESIDENCY
It is the first institution devoted to the study of the Office of the President. The Center's
non-partisan, multi-disciplinary character leads to an analysis of the highest office in
the Nation through the studies of history, economics, philosophy, political science,
rhetoric and journalism. More than 500 colleges and universities participate in the
Center's programs. The Center offers symposia, lectures, books, periodicals and
29TH ANNUAL
research papers that focus on the Presidency.
ANNIVERSARY AWARDS PROGRAM
The objectives of the Center for the Study of the Presidency are clear: to build better
citizens, better government and better leaders through education and information
which leads to reaffirmation of faith in the American system of government.

Dear Ms. Herman:
On Saturday, June 25th, Friends of the Little Blue House Boarder Baby Project will
host a luncheon for 500 guests to support the Little Blue House in Washington, D.C. This
festive afternoon of book signing and entertainment will serve to support the basic care
of infants under the transitional care of the Little Blue House.
As you will see from the enclosed invitation the "little ones" really need our help. While
the government provides approximately 50% of the financial support for the Little Blue
House, the additional 50% must be donated or raised through efforts such as this benefit
luncheon.
We invite you to join us. More specifically, we need you to join us as a financial
supporter of the Little Blue House. Categories in which you may elect to support are
attached, but all contributions are welcomed and appreciated. Contributions are tax
deductible.
If you need additional information, please feel free to give me a call on (301) 774-5730.
Sincerely,
Madeline y Lauson

MEMORANDUM FOR THE FIRST LADY
FROM:
The Health Care Delivery Room
Attached are talking points on universal coverage. The message of this event should focus
on the fact that any proposal that does not achieve universal coverage will exclude millions
of Americans with pre-existing conditions and will leave millions hitting their life-time limits.
Universal Coverage means putting you and your doctor in charge for a change. It is
you who know best what care you need, not your insurance company. To your
insurance company, it is a "pre-existing condition" but to you, it is diabetes, it is
asthma, it is cancer and it needs medical attention. To your insurance company, it's
a "life-time limit," to you, it's fine print that means even though you have insurance,
you have thousands of dollars in medical bills. We need universal coverage to end
these kinds of limits and exclusions and to get you the health care you need.
In addition, we suggest touching on the following:
I want to thank Steve McConnell with the Alzheimer's Association, Dr. Joseph Bates
with the American Lung Association, and all of you standing with us today. You
represent tens of millions Americans who support universal coverage. You are the
parents, the grandparents, the hard-working middle class Americans who will remain
at risk under reform that does not achieve universal coverage.
I want to acknowledge the Members of Congress who are here today and who have
been working so hard to pass real health care reform reform that includes universal
coverage. (List of these Members to be provided on site.)
Other Issues of Importance to the Groups that You Might Want to Touch On
We believe in increased biomedical research funding to find more and better cures for
diseases like cancer, AIDS and bone diseases. We believe in a strong outcomes
research funding program to evaluate what treatments really do work.
We feel strongly that quality health care means that every American has the right to
choose his or her doctor. Today, most employers not their workers choose health
plans, and more and more people find themselves locked into plans where they can't
see the doctor of their choice.
Prevention is the heart of the President's approach. Without doubt our system can
provide some of the highest quality care available anywhere. But it is a system in
which a focus on curing can obscure the values of prevention; in which a focus on
treating the sick can overshadow the values of keeping people healthy. Our insurance
policies may cover some of the most expensive of high-tech procedures but we fail to
immunize all our children. We provide life-saving coronary by-pass technology, but
often fail to promote the wellness activities that might render it unnecessary. We
marvel at our ability to treat a prematurely born child in an intensive care unit: but the
child might be there because its mother went though pregnancy with out ever seeing a
doctor.
Close
Many people are opposing health care reform that achieves universal coverage. It is
critical that you voice your concern and make people understand why universal
coverage is so important to you and the families you represent.
WHY WE NEED UNIVERSAL COVERAGE:
Incremental measures cannot accomplish most goals of health reform.
Almost every goal of comprehensive reform depends on universal coverage.
1) Without universal coverage, the hard working middle-class is left behind.
Partial solutions will protect the wealthy and help the poor, but stick it to the middle-class.
These half-measures and quick fixes would leave every middle class American at risk of losing
their insurance. And at least 24 million Americans who work for a living would have no
coverage at all. People like Jim Bryant and his family. Jim Bryant works 70 hours a week,
juggling two jobs, but has no health insurance for his family. And the Congressional Budget
Office also says that under the 91% scheme. "health insurance coverage would probably be
more limited for middle-income people than the rich or poor. [CBO analysis, 5/94, pp. 17, 20]
2) Without universal coverage, every American remains at risk of losing their insurance.
Those who urge Band-Aid solutions say they're reforming the health care system. But they fail
to provide every American with the ironclad guarantee that they'll have private health insurance
that can never be taken away. According to a new study by Families USA, under a partial
solution over one million Americans a month will still lose their insurance. We need universal
coverage because every family including middle-class families -- must be protected. [Families
USA Special Report, 6/94, p. 1]
3) Without universal coverage, the link between work and reward is broken.
Think of the message that non-universal reform would send to literally millions and millions of
working Americans. It would say, much as we do today, "If you are lucky enough to work for
someone who will help you with your insurance, or if you are poor enough and down on your
luck enough to qualify for government assistance, then you'll have health security. But, if you're
in the middle and you get up every day and work for a living, your health coverage is always at
risk."
In fact, surveys suggest that as many as 30 percent of people feel locked into their current jobs
because they fear losing the health insurance their families depend on. The CBO has said that
incremental reforms will "reduce" but not solve -- this problem. ["Health Benefits Found to Deter
Switches in Jobs," The New York Times, 9/26/91; CBO, 4/94, p. 28]
4) Without universal coverage, we pay more to cover less.
The CBO has said that under the President's proposal, "significant deficit reduction will be
achieved by 2004. Under the 91% scheme where billions in government subsidies are used
to help the poorest people buy insurance a $300 billion shortfall would result by 2004.
Meanwhile, the President's proposal would guarantee coverage to everyone, while the 91%
scheme wouldn't guarantee coverage to anyone. [CBO analysis, p. 22]
5) Without universal coverage, insurance reforms won't work.
Today, insurers pick and choose who to cover -- charging sick people significantly more based
on their health care "experience". One of the main goals of the President's proposal is to
prohibit insurers from discriminating against people: no more charging sick people more than
healthy people, young people more than old, small businesses more than large businesses. This
will return insurance to what it used to be everyone pays in at the "community rate" and their
insurance is there when they need it.
But, the Wall Street Journal says that "experts insist and real-life evidence shows" that insurance
reforms such as community rating would be "nearly impossible without universal coverage".
In fact, when one state recently enacted insurance reform without universal coverage, rates for
the insured went up by 35% and the number of people with insurance declined. Why? Because
all the sick people who had previously been denied coverage entered the system, driving up the
rates for everyone. This caused young, healthy people and their employers to drop their
coverage, which drove rates even higher. In fact, the CBO has said that incremental reforms can
cause "an upward spiral" of premiums, with fewer people covered at the end. [WSI. 6/15/94; WSI.
5/27/94; CBO, p. x1v]
6) Without universal coverage, thousands of Americans will stay on welfare.
Studies have shown that thousands of people are on welfare because it's the only way their
families can get health care coverage. An analysis of the effects of the Clinton proposal
estimate that at least 840,000 people or 15% of welfare rolls -- will leave if the President's
reform passes. While some incremental reform proposals would solve this, insurance reforms
without subsidies would do nothing to encourage people to leave welfare for a job. Just like
today, they say to those on welfare: "If you stay on welfare, you and your family will be
protected by comprehensive health benefits. If you leave welfare and get a minimum-wage job,
not only are you unlikely to get health care but your taxes will pay for health care for those who
remain on welfare." [Ellwood and Adams, Health Care Financing Review. 1990 Supplement: University of
Wisconsin. L.A. Times, 11/18/93]
7) Without universal coverage, people with insurance will pay for those without insurance.
When people without insurance get in an accident and go to the emergency room, they receive
the health care they need. But when they can't pay their bills, the hospital shifts these costs onto
people with private insurance. Some experts estimate that $25 billion in health care costs are
shifted onto people with private insurance each year. Without universal coverage, this "cost-
shift" will remain in the system -- penalizing those who take responsibility and letting millions
of others "ride free". [Congressional Budget Office, May 1993]
2
8) Without universal coverage, for all workers, responsible businesses bear the burden.
Today, the businesses that provide their employees with insurance pay for those who do not. A
recent study found that as much as one third of premiums currently paid by employers who
provide coverage for their employees and dependents goes to cover the shortfall from companies
who do not cover their employees and families. In 1991, employers spent $26.5 billion to cover
dependents who are employed by firms that did not offer insurance. [Hewitt Associates, 1/94;
National Association of Manufacturers/Lewin-ICF, 12/91]
9) Without universal coverage, billions will be wasted on expensive, last-minute care.
Until all Americans have comprehensive benefits stressing preventive and primary care, billions
of dollars will continue to be wasted on expensive, last-minute care. A national survey of
hospital emergency room departments determined that fifty-five percent or 50 million -- of the
90 million emergency room visits in 1992 were for ailments that were not medical emergencies
and could have been treated in a doctor's office. An emergency room visit costs at least three
times that of a visit to a community-based physician in the same area. [National Hospital Ambulatory
Medical Care Survey, 1994; HHS, Inspector General Report, 1992]
10) Experts Agree -- We Can't Get Cost Control Without Universal Coverage:
Rashi Fein, Medical Economics, Harvard University: "We cannot have real savings and
real cost containment without universal enrollment. Such enrollment is not a welcome bonus
delivered with cost containment dollars; it is what makes cost containment possible. Only with
universality can we eliminate the practice of making patients with insurance pay the medical
costs of those without it. [New York Times, 10/28/93]
Ted Marmor and Jerry Mashaw, Yale University: "It is the experience of every
industrialized democracy with a universal health insurance program that cost control becomes
easier when the plan is universal, not harder that counsel currently offered by critics -- go
slow in adding new benefits until we can assure everyone that the savings are real -- is advice
that is likely to doom the plan to failure. Universalism and cost control go hand in hand.
Otherwise it is politics as usual, full of special pleading." [L.A. Times. 10/7/93]
The Washington Post: "Universal coverage is not only a fair and noble objective, consistent
with America's values: it is also essential if health care markets are to work well." [Editorial
Page, 6/16/94]
Alain Enthoven: "By putting market pressure on providers to cut costs, market reforms
promoting competition - absent universal coverage - could exacerbate access problems. It
would be more humane, economical and rational simply to adopt a policy providing coverage to
virtually everybody through an integrated financing and delivery organization that provides
primary and preventive care as a part of a comprehensive benefits package. "THealth Affairs. 1993]

EVENT WITH VOLUNTARY HEALTH ORGANIZATIONS
IN SUPPORT OF UNIVERSAL COVERAGE
DATE:
Wednesday, June 29, 1994
TIME:

through Alexis Herman
I.
PURPOSE
The purpose of this event is to join 24 of the most prominent health organizations in the
United States in standing firmly in support of universal coverage. These groups, most of
which are household names, represent tens of millions of Americans.
II.
BACKGROUND
The 24 organizations standing with you today are all voluntary health agencies, organized by
volunteers whose mission is to serve the public through research, providing services and
influencing public policy on behalf of victims of these disorders and their families.
(Although they have paid staff, their governing board is comprised of volunteers.) The
people represented by these groups deeply understand the importance of universal coverage:
they are Americans who are denied coverage due to pre-existing conditions and who suffer
the burden of life time limits. They all strongly support universal coverage and are generally
supportive of the administration's approach to health care reform.
They are non-profit organizations who raise their money through membership dues and
grants, and as a result their political activities are severely limited. They also tend to be
conservative and cautious organizations, many of which are well-known and well-respected
by the American public.
Although each group represents a constituency with different disorders and different needs --
they have agreed to stand together today to emphasize what they have in common. Universal
coverage is the most important issue to these groups universal coverage regardless of
employment status, ability to pay or pre-existing conditions. Other issues that are very
important to the participating groups are:
elimination of preexisting conditions clauses,
research,
choice of physician allowing for access to specialty care,
prevention.
Each group has released a press statement in conjunction with today's event to underscore the
need for universal coverage.
The organizations represented on stage are listed in an attachment.

June 28, 1994
MEMORANDUM FOR THE FIRST LADY
FROM:
The Health Care Delivery Room
Attached are talking points on universal coverage. The message of this event should focus
on the fact that any proposal that does not achieve universal coverage will exclude millions
of Americans with pre-existing conditions and will leave millions hitting their life-time limits.
Universal Coverage means putting you and your doctor in charge for a change. It is
you who know best what care you need, not your insurance company. To your
insurance company, it is a "pre-existing condition" but to you, it is diabetes, it is
asthma, it is cancer -- and it needs medical attention. To your insurance company, it's
a "life-time limit," to you, it's fine print that means even though you have insurance,
you have thousands of dollars in medical bills. We need universal coverage to end
these kinds of limits and exclusions and to get you the health care you need.
In addition, we suggest touching on the following:
I want to thank Steve McConnell with the Alzheimer's Association, Dr. Joseph Bates
with the American Lung Association, and all of you standing with us today. You
represent tens of millions Americans who support universal coverage. You are the
parents, the grandparents, the hard-working middle class Americans who will remain
at risk under reform that does not achieve universal coverage.
I want to acknowledge the Members of Congress who are here today and who have
been working so hard to pass real health care reform -- reform that includes universal
coverage. (List of these Members to be provided on site.)
Other Issues of Importance to the Groups that You Might Want to Touch On
We believe in increased biomedical research funding to find more and better cures for
diseases like cancer, AIDS and bone diseases. We believe in a strong outcomes
research funding program to evaluate what treatments really do work.
We feel strongly that quality health care means that every American has the right to
choose his or her doctor. Today, most employers -- not their workers -- choose health
plans, and more and more people find themselves locked into plans where they can't
see the doctor of their choice.
Prevention is the heart of the President's approach. Without doubt our system can
provide some of the highest quality care available anywhere. But it is a system in
which a focus on curing can obscure the values of prevention; in which a focus on
treating the sick can overshadow the values of keeping people healthy. Our insurance
policies may cover some of the most expensive of high-tech procedures but we fail to
immunize all our children. We provide life-saving coronary by-pass technology, but
often fail to promote the wellness activities that might render it unnecessary. We
marvel at our ability to treat a prematurely born child in an intensive care unit: but the
child might be there because its mother went though pregnancy with out ever seeing a
doctor.
Close
Many people are opposing health care reform that achieves universal coverage. It is
critical that you voice your concern and make people understand why universal
coverage is so important to you and the families you represent.

As the U.S. moves to put a new national "information infrastructure" in place -- potentially ushering in one of the most
significant economic and social developments of the century - national policy-makers confront a number of
significant regulatory challenges. What change to permit? What change to encourage? What change to promote?
The stakes could be high. It has been said that information superhighways are one of those rare technologies that are
actually far more powerful and promising than the hype surrounding them. Is this really true? If it is, what do we
need to do to be sure that this country develops the most efficient and most accessible network possible?
These questions and others will serve as the focus of debate and discussion at this CNP public policy forum.

Dear Ms. Herman:
I appreciate the effort you have made to have me as your guest
at lunch.
Having served in the Carter Administration, I fully understand
the problems of schedule maintenance and for you, it must be even
more difficult since you serve the President, directly.
While I hope the luncheon can be rescheduled at an early future
date, I do want to reserve time on your schedule now for a speaking
engagement at the National African American Family Summit Conference
to be held in Indianapolis, Indiana, June 29 - July 1, 1994.
This is to invite you to speak at the opening session in a luncheon
on Wednesday, June 29 at 12:15 P.M.
Indiana Black Expo would also like to use this occasion to present
you with an award in recognition of your distinguished service
to the nation.
If for some reason the time we proposed poses scheduling problems,
an appropriate time can be arranged at a point of your preference
during the two days of this conference.
The conference, to be held in the Indianapolis Convention Center,
is the center piece of the Annual Summer Celebration of Indiana
Black Expo, a non profit organization in service to the people
of Indiana and the nation for twenty-five years.
In its nearly week-long annual activities, the celebration
consistently attracts over 200,000 people.
The theme of the conference is -
"PEOPLE TAKING THE LEAD TOWARDS:
- Economic Viability
- A Healthy Environment and Safe Streets
- A Community of Values of Mind and Spirit"

In addition to its featured speakers, conference workshops will
highlight programs and projects where people across the nation,
in partnership with government, are doing positive things which
are making a difference.
Cabinet and other senior level officials in previous national
administrations, have found this forum to offer a great opportunity
to deliver messages of hope and to rally people to community service.
Under grant support, from the Lilly Endowment, I have been assisting
Indiana Black Expo over the past five years in fine-tuning its
important work and extending its outreach to more and more people
and communities in need of its valuable services.
Your acceptance of this invitation will assist us all in this very
important mission.
Please mark your calendar and plan to join us on June 29 in
Indianapolis for what will surly be one of the most important
conferences of the year.
I do look forward to an early and favorable response.

Dear Ms. Herman:
I am writing to invite you join the Chrysler Minority

leadership and skill you have provided to President Clinton's
Administration. We want you to share with our members your
thoughts on the importance of the Chrysler Minority Dealers
Association participation in the public policy process, especially
as it relates to health care and other issues. We would like to

In order to facilitate your appearance we're able to offer, within
the guidelines, to pay travel and lodging expenses.
In addition, we would like to use your good offices to
facilitate Secretary Mike Espy's appearance at our morning session

Dear Ms. Herman:
I write on behalf of the Chrysler Minority Automobile
Dealers Association. The Association wishes to be supportive of
the Administration's position on NAFTA. To that end we would
appreciate your assistance in providing us with a more thorough
understanding of the implications of NAFTA and its impact upon
minorities, especially minority automobile dealers.
It is our intention to meet with, and otherwise
communicate our positions, to members of Congress in general, and
the Congressional Black Caucus specifically. We would like to be
able to meet with you, and appropriate members of the President's
staff, early next week.

HEALTH CARE OREGON STATE OPINION LEADERSHIP BRIEFING

I.
PURPOSE
This is a substantive briefing for 25 community leaders from Oregon -- including
business and labor leaders, DNC supporters, doctors, nurses, educators, seniors,
social workers and other community activists about the provisions, benefits and
importance of the President's Health Care Security Act. These are all individuals
who are supportive of universal coverage.
II.
BACKGROUND
This is the seventh state opinion leaders briefing on the President's health care
initiative. We have held briefings for the states of Virginia, Pennsylvania, Kansas,
California, Oklahoma, and Rhode Island. We have scheduled North Dakota for
Thursday.
We invited health care reform supporters from targeted communities for in-depth
briefings on the issue, message, and a congressional update.
Our goal is have these individuals leave here prepared to contact their Member of
Congress, actively support health care organizational activities in their state, and
serve as advocates in their communities on behalf of the Clinton health plan. It is
to our understanding that while these leaders are in Washington, they will be
meeting with Senator Packwood on Capitol Hill.
The audience represents influential leaders from Oregon recommended by
supportive organizations (labor, seniors, small businesses, hospitals, and providers)
These people are newsmakers: they are opinion makers in their communities;
have relationships with Members of Congress; and have been actively
participating in the health care reform campaign. We targeted not only those who
are politically important in Oregon, but also those who are close to and willing to
carry the message to Senator Packwood.

FROM:
ALEXIS HERMAN
AMY ZISOOK
I.
Purpose
To emphasize economic benefits of the agreement and the
importance of implementing the Uruguay Round agreement this
year (hopefully before he August recess).
II.
Background
This is the first of a series of industry sector briefing
designed to energize the business community. The sectors
included in this briefing are: aerospace, agriculture
equipment, construction equipment, and pharmaceuticals.
Additionally, the Alliance for GATT NOW sector leaders
(Washington representatives of major companies) were
invited.
As you know, the amount of energy being expended on behalf
of the Uruguay Round has none of the intensity of the NAFTA
fight. This works both for us, as the opposition is not as
intense, and against us, as the supporters are not as
enthusiastic. The business community has an enormous amount
to gain from this agreement and they must be willing to
fight for it.
Inasmuch as you are the only participant who can ask them to
speak with Members of Congress, please impress upon them the
importance of visiting their Senators and Representatives at
home during the July 4th recess, as well as making certain
that Members receive telephone calls and letters from
constituents in their district offices. The opponents are
airing TV and radio commercials throughout the country. We
must make sure the message that this must be passed this
year gets communicated.
Your talking points reflect our message of the United States
as the leader in international economic affairs.
You will be followed by Ambassador Kantor who will discuss
the benefits of the agreement to the sectors in attendance;
Secretary Bentsen who will discuss the benefits of the
agreement to the U.S. economy; and John Emerson who will
discuss the overall White House effort to pass GATT.
