3. ROSE PRAISES FEDWORLD, ACE, LC AND GPO ON INFO PROGRAMS: Rep.
Charlie Rose, D-NC, last week praised FedWorld, Library of
Congress' LOCIS and Marvel information retrieval systems, GPO
electronic access program and Americans Communicating
Electronically (ACE) as positive federal initiatives in area of
information dissemination. The congressman especially went out of
his way to single out the National Technical Information Services
(NTIS) noting that the agency had "transformed itself into a leader
to make government agency information available" to the public.
In a speech before the Annual FLICC Forum at the Library of
Congress, the Chairman of the House Administration Committee also
revealed that this month *****he ordered Internet access for all House
members*****, and took steps to make legislative information available
over the Internet via a gopher. (Rose said his Internet address is:
crose@hr.house.gov) The House gopher (gopher.house.gov) is to serve
the needs of the Capital Hill community and as a vehicle for the
dissemination of House information to the public.=

"In a Time/CNN poll of 1,000 Americans conducted last week by Yankelovich
Partners, two-thirds said it was more important to protect the privacy of
phone calls than to preserve the ability of police to conduct wiretaps.
When informed about the Clipper Chip, 80% said they opposed it."
