Title 3--
The President
                Proclamation 6658 of March 23, 1994


Education and Sharing Day, U.S.A., 1994

                By the President of the United States of America

                A Proclamation

                America's success in the years to come requires a 
                national commitment to providing excellence in 
                education. Our ability to seize the opportunities 
                before us depends on the strength of our scholarship. 
                We must build an educational system that offers our 
                country's vast promise to every citizen. Only when we 
                know that all of our students are receiving the best 
                care and training possible can we say that we are 
                prepared for the challenges of the future.

                New innovations in teaching methods and curricula, 
                combined with traditional lessons of ethics and 
                morality, afford students a comprehensive education 
                that will serve them well their entire lives. By 
                sharing our experiences and our beliefs with the next 
                generation of Americans, we can prepare our Nation for 
                the awesome responsibilities and opportunities that lie 
                ahead.

                Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, the leader of the 
                Lubavitch movement, has contributed a great deal to 
                this important endeavor, advancing the ideals of 
                sharing and education over the course of his long and 
                rich life. As Rabbi Schneerson celebrates his 92nd 
                birthday, it is fitting and appropriate that the people 
                of the United States honor his gifts to education and 
                rededicate themselves to the teaching of ethics and 
                morality.

                NOW, THEREFORE, I, WILLIAM J. CLINTON, President of the 
                United States of America, by virtue of the authority 
                vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United 
                States, do hereby proclaim March 23, 1994, as Education 
                and Sharing Day, U.S.A. I call upon the people of the 
                United States, Government officials, educators, and 
                volunteers to observe the day with appropriate 
                programs, ceremonies, and activities.

                IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this 
                twenty-third day of March, in the year of our Lord 
                nineteen hundred and ninety-four, and of the 
                Independence of the United States of America the two 
                hundred and eighteenth.

                    (Presidential Sig.)>
