 SENATE RESOLUTION 210--CONGRATULATING THE PEOPLE AND LEADERS OF SOUTH 
                                 AFRICA

  Mr. WOFFORD (for himself, Mr. Simon, Mr. Jeffords, Mr. Moynihan, Mrs. 
Kassebaum, Mr. Feingold, Ms. Moseley-Braun, Mr. Pell, and Mr. 
DeConcini) submitted the following resolution; which was considered and 
agreed to:

                              S. Res. 210

       Whereas the people of South Africa have demonstrated by 
     their recent election a desire to move toward full democratic 
     government;
       Whereas, despite the efforts of extremists, those elections 
     have moved South Africa towards a new era of multiracial 
     cooperation and government;
       Whereas President-elect Nelson Mandela, former President 
     F.W. DeKlerk, Chief Mangosuthu Buthelezi, and many others 
     have by their cooperation helped to achieve these good 
     results; and
       Whereas the people of South Africa now enter a new and 
     important period in their history: Now, therefore, be it
       Resolved, That the Senate, on behalf of the people of the 
     United States, hereby extends its congratulations to the 
     people of South Africa and their leaders on the results of 
     their first democratic election, and expresses the strong 
     hope of all Americans that South Africa and its citizens 
     continue on the road to freedom and national unity.
