             ANNOUNCING THE BIRTH OF CHARLES McDONALD LUGAR

  Mr. LUGAR. Mr. President, I am pleased to share the news of the birth 
of Charles McDonald ``Mac'' Lugar on September 5, 2007, at Sibley 
Memorial Hospital in Washington, DC. Mac was a healthy 8 pounds 6 
ounces at birth. His parents are David Riley Lugar, son of Richard and 
Charlene Lugar, and his wife Katherine Graham Lugar, daughter of 
Lawrence and Jane Graham. Mac was born at 4:50 p.m. and in the next few 
hours was joined in the hospital delivery room by Jane Graham, Richard 
and Charlene Lugar. We shared together a wonderful experience. On the 
next day, Mac met his sisters, Elizabeth Merrell Lugar, who was born at 
Sibley Memorial Hospital on May 25, 2004, and Katherine Riley Lugar, 
born on December 28, 2005, at Sibley Memorial Hospital. Mac and his 
sisters are now safe and healthy with their parents in their McLean, 
VA, residence.
  Katherine and David were married on June 3, 2000, in St. David's 
Episcopal Church in Austin, TX. Katherine, a graduate of the University 
of Colorado, is senior vice president of government affairs for the 
Retail Industry Leaders Association. David Lugar, who came with us to 
Washington, along with his three brothers, 30 years ago, graduated from 
Langley High School in McLean, VA, and Indiana University. He is a 
partner of Quinn Gillespie & Associates. Both Katherine and David are 
well known to many of our colleagues and their staff members. We know 
that you will understand our excitement and our joy that they and we 
have been given this divine blessing and responsibility for a glorious 
new chapter in our lives.
