            NO TRADE WAR BETWEEN THE UNITED STATES AND JAPAN

  Mr. GRAMM. Madam President, I yield myself 15 minutes.
  Madam President, I think we are all happy today that there is going 
to be no trade war between the United States and Japan, and I 
congratulate the President for avoiding that crisis. But I think it is 
interesting to look back at all the political bravado of the Clinton 
administration in the last several months, to look back at all of their 
statements saying they were not going to budge an inch. Yet, today, 
when the final agreement came out, it is a voluntary agreement with no 
specifically defined targets. I think we have seen, once again, in 
dealing with the Clinton administration, after all is said and done, 
there is always more said than done.
