                       IN APPRECIATION OF SERVICE

  Mr. ASHCROFT. Mr. President, I rise today to extend 
appreciation to Anne Feygina for her service as an intern in my office 
during the Spring of 1998.
  Since I was elected in 1994, my staff and I have made a pledge of 
service, commitment, and dedication. We dedicate ourselves to 
principled public policy. We believe that Americans are endowed by 
their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, and among these are 
life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The power we exercise is 
granted by Missourians and the American people; we serve to secure 
their rights. We also dedicate ourselves to quality service. America's 
future will be determined by the character and productivity of our 
people. In this respect, we seek to lead by our example. We strive to 
lead with humility and honesty. We will work with energy and spirit. We 
will represent the American people with loyalty and integrity. Our 
standard of productivity is accuracy, courtesy, efficiency, integrity, 
validity, and timeliness.
  It is with much appreciation that I recognize Anne's contribution to 
our effort to fulfill this pledge and to serve all people by whose 
consent we govern.
