    I'd like to announce several additions to the White House staff.

Communications. Robert Zoellick will become Assistant to the President 
and Deputy Chief of Staff. Dennis Ross will become Assistant to the 
President for Policy Planning. Janet Mullins will become Assistant to 
the President for Political Affairs.

staff, will become Assistant to the President and chief speechwriter.
