                 NATIONAL DAY OF THE REPUBLIC OF CHINA

                                 ______


                         HON. DANA ROHRABACHER

                             of california

                    in the house of representatives

                       Friday, September 23, 1994

  Mr. ROHRABACHER. Mr. Speaker, a few days ago I attended a farewell 
reception for Ambassador Mou-shih Ding of the Taipei Economic and 
Cultural Representative Office. Ambassador Ding has ably served his 
country, The Republic of China, for the last 6 years. He has brought 
our two peoples closer together. And I believe, his successor, 
Ambassador Benjamin Lu, will further strengthen the ties between the 
Republic of China on Taiwan and the United States.
  In the meantime, I wish to offer my congratulations to our ally in 
the Pacific--the Republic of China on Taiwan--on the occasion of its 
83d National Day. It is my hope that the Republic of China will soon be 
able to return to the United Nations and other international 
organizations.
