To designate the week beginning October 19, 1986, as "Gaucher's Disease Awareness Week".

Joint Resolution To designate the period commencing February 9, 1987, and ending February 15, 1987, as "National Burn Awareness Week".

Whereas the burn problem in the United States is the worst of any industrialized nation in the world; Whereas burn injuries are one of the leading causes of accidental death in the United States; Whereas every year approximately two million people are victims of burn injury in the United States; Whereas of these injuries, seventy thousand are hospitalized and account for nine million disability days annually; Whereas approximately twelve thousand people die from burn injuries; Whereas deaths resulting from burn injuries increased in 1985; Whereas the rehabilitative and psychological impact of burns are devastating; Whereas children, the elderly, and the disabled are most likely to suffer serious burns; Whereas it is estimated that approximately 75 percent of all burns could be prevented by proper education of children and adults; and Whereas there is a need for an effective national program that deals with all aspects of burn prevention: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That the period commencing February 9, 1987, and ending Februaryr 15, 1987, is designated as "National Bum Awareness Week" and the President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States and all Federal, State, and local government officials to observe such week with appropriate programs and activities.

Whereas a fundamental principle of our Government is that a wellinformed citizenry can reach the important decisions that determine the present and future of the Nation; Whereas the freedoms we cherish as Americans are fostered by free access to information; Whereas many Americans, because they have never known any other way of life, take for granted the guarantee of free access to information that derives from the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States; Whereas the guarantee of free access to information should be emphasized and celebrated annually; and Whereas March 16 is the anniversary of the birth of James Madison, one of the Founding Fathers, who recognized and supported the need to guarantee individual rights through the Bill of Rights: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That March 16, 1987, is designated as "Freedom of Information Day", and the President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon Federal, State, and local government agencies and the people of the United States to observe such day with appropriate programs, ceremonies, and activities.

Joint Resolution To designate February 4, 1987, as "National Women in Sports Day".

Whereas women's athletics is one of the most effective avenues available through which women of America may develop selfdiscipline, initiative, confidence, and leadership skills; Whereas support and fitness activity contributes to emotional and physical well-being and women need strong bodies as well as strong minds; Whereas the history of women in sports is rich and long, but there has been little national recognition of the significance of women's athletic achievements; Whereas the number of women in leadership positions of coaches, officials, and administrators has declined drastically over the last decade and there is a need to restore women to these positions to ensure a fair representation of women's abilities and to provide role models for young female athletes; Whereas the bonds built between women through athletics help to break down the social barriers of racism and prejudice; Whereas the communication and cooperation skills learned through athletic experience play a key role in the athlete's contributions at home, at work, and to society; Whereas women's athletics has produced such winners as Flo Hyman, whose spirit, talent, and accomplishments distinguished her above others and exhibited for all of us the true meaning of fairness, determination, and team play; Whereas early motor-skill training and enjoyable experiences of physical activity strongly influence life-long habits of physical fitness; Whereas the athletic opportunities for male students at the collegiate and high school level remain significantly greater than those for female students; and Whereas the number of funded research projects focusing on the specific needs of women athletes is limited and the information provided by these projects is imperative to the health and performance of future women athletes: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That February 4, 1987, is hereby designated as "National Women in Sports Day", and the President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon local and State jurisdictions, appropriate Federal agencies,

Commemorating the 100th anniversary of the birth of the first Prime Minister of the State of Israel, David Ben-Gurion.

Whereas David Ben-Gurion is a man of great historical importance, not only to the Jewish people but also to all people striving for freedom; Whereas his leadership made realizable in-gathering of the exiles that brought millions of homeless Jews scattered throughout the world to Israel where they were united both with each other and with their ancient homeland; Whereas the Declaration of Independence of the State of Israel, a milestone in the life of David Ben-Gurion, echoes the American Declaration of Independence in its recognition of the universal equality of man; Whereas as Israel's first Prime Minister and Minister of Defense, Ben-Gurion led the newly formed state through its most difficult period, directing the desperate efforts to secure Israel's survival and independence; Whereas his pragmatic solutions to Israel's overwhelming problems, paralleled with his desire to create a society based on justice and peace, guided the fledging state and formed the values on which Israel rests today and the basis for what Israel strives for in the future; Whereas Ben-Gurion's vision of the Greening of the Desert through the application of science and technology continues to be an important aspect of Israel, as well as a factor that can help solve food production problems in arid regions all over the world; Whereas 1986 marks the hundredth anniversary of the birth of David Ben-Gurion, leader of his people for two generations; and Whereas the United States and Israel share many of the same fundamental values of democracy and freedom, and a common history of accepting immigrants from all over the globe: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That (a) the Congress, in this the centennial of David Ben-Gurion's birth joins in the celebration of this great statesman, urges all Americans to take note of this commemoration, and applauds the David Ben-Gurion Centennial Committee of the United States of America in its work promoting the yearlong national celebration of David Ben-Gurion and his achievements.
