                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

  Mr. FRANKS. Mr. Speaker, I deeply and sincerely regret that I was not 
able to be present for Rolled Suspension on H. Res. 615, expressing the 
sense of the House of Representatives in support of full membership of 
Israel in the Western European and Others Group (WEOG) at the United 
Nations, and Rolled Suspension on H. Res. 713, deploring the misuse of 
the International Court of Justice by a majority of the United Nations 
General Assembly for a narrow political purpose. I hereby submit for 
the record my statement that had I been present for H. Res. 615 and H. 
Res. 713, I would have voted ``aye'' to both measures.

                          ____________________
