What!?!?!?!  I guess I'm not totally surprised - registration of all children
has been high on Clinton's agenda ever since he's been in the White House.
One of the more blatant examples was the child vaccination proposals - which
first started out as "take over the vaccination system and register all kids
so we can remind their parents to get their shots", and gradually included 
less and less control and funding of vaccination while retaining the
registration.
Sigh.

Can someone offer a citation for this ?

I've tried to find the text of the Executive Order on the net, to no avail. 
http://docs.whitehouse.gov/white-house-publications/1995/08/ has a couple of
short fact sheets on the proposal, and transcripts of a briefing by Sec.
Shalala (DoHHS) and Dir. Kessler (FDA), Clinton's press conference, and his
opening remarks at some discussion with teens about smoking.

I couldn't find anything relevant at http://www.fda.gov/

There's an article in the LA Times (Richter/Cimons) which says:
	The landmark proposal, which could open the door to further curbs
	on tobacco, is expected to include prohibiting cigarettes sales
	to those 18 or younger, enforced by requiring proof of age with
	photo identification.
This sounds to me like a similar approach to the alcohol access protocol.
