        1980:  Some people feel it is important for us to try very hard to get
        along with Russia. Others feel it is a big mistake to try too hard to 
        get along with Russia.                                                
                                                                              
        1984,1988:  Some people feel it is important for us to try to         
        cooperate more with Russia, while others believe we should be much    
        tougher in our dealings with Russia.

        at the present time? (7-POINT SCALE SHOWN TO R)

        In all years, if R replied DK or "haven't thought much about it" in   
        rating self on this same 7-point scale, then R was not asked this     
        question.                                                             
                                                                              
               1. TRY TO COOPERATE MORE WITH RUSSIA (1984, 1988)/IMPORTANT TO
