   CONGRATULATIONS TO ARTHUR E. KRUSE CELEBRATING HIS 100TH BIRTHDAY

  Mr. ASHCROFT. Mr. President, I rise today to encourage my colleagues 
to join me in congratulating Arthur E. Kruse of St. Louis, MO, who will 
celebrate his 100th birthday on November 10. Arthur is a truly 
remarkable individual. He has witnessed many of the events that have 
shaped our Nation into the greatest the world has ever known. The 
longevity of Arthur's life has meant much more, however, to the many 
relatives and friends whose lives he has touched over the last 100 
years.
  Arthur's celebration of 100 years of life is a testament to me and 
all Missourians. His achievements are significant and deserve to be 
recognized. I would like to join Arthur's many friends and relatives in 
wishing him health and happiness in the future.
