                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

  Mr. TAYLOR of North Carolina. Mr. Speaker, due to transportation 
difficulties beyond my control, I was not present for the votes on H. 
Con. Res. 218, S. Con. Res. 37, and H.J. Res. 102.
  Had I been present, I would have voted aye on H. Con. Res. 218 
concerning the need to establish a cease fire in Afghanistan and begin 
the transition toward a broad based multi-ethnic government that 
observes international norms of behavior.
  I would have also voted aye on S. Con. Res. 37 expressing the sense 
of the Congress that Little League Baseball Incorporated was 
established to support and develop little league baseball worldwide and 
that its international character and activities should be recognized.
  Finally, I would have voted aye on H.J. Res. 102 expressing the sense 
of the Congress on the occasion of the 50th Anniversary of the founding 
of the modern state of Isreal.
