  Mr. TRAFICANT. Mr. Speaker, courage, compassion, intelligence, and 
sincerity are just a few of the adjectives which can be used to 
describe Judge John Minor Wisdom. Judge Wisdom is currently a senior 
judge with an active docket. During his long, outstanding career Judge 
Wisdom has participated in numerous landmark legal decisions such as 
Meredith versus Fair. This historic decision desegregated the 
University of Mississippi; a decision that has benefitted our whole 
society. It is truly fitting to honor Judge John Minor Wisdom and his 
invaluable contributions to judicial proceedings by designating the 
U.S. courthouse at 600 Camp Street is the John Minor Wisdom United 
States Court of Appeals Building.
