        HONORING THE ZOLLER'S ON THEIR 50TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY

  Mr. ASHCROFT. Mr. President, families are the cornerstone of America. 
The data are undeniable: Individuals from strong families contribute to 
the society. In an era when nearly half of all couples married today 
will see their union dissolve into divorce, I believe it is both 
instructive and important to honor those who have taken the commitment 
of ``till death us do part'' seriously, demonstrating successfully the 
timeless principles of love, honor, and fidelity. These characteristics 
make our country strong.
  For these important reasons, I rise today to honor Bill and Mable 
Zoller of Billings, MO, who on September 22, 1996 celebrated their 50th 
wedding anniversary. My wife, Janet, and I look forward to the day we 
can celebrate a similar milestone. Bill and Mable's commitment to the 
principles and values of their marriage deserves to be saluted and 
recognized.
