INSTALLATION OF HARLAN MILLER AS PRESIDENT OF THE INDEPENDENT INSURANCE 
                           AGENTS OF AMERICA

                                 ______


                           HON. STEPHEN HORN

                             of california

                    in the house of representatives

                       Friday, September 23, 1994

  Mr. HORN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to commend a fellow Californian 
and friend, Harlan Miller of Long Beach, who will be installed as 
president of the Independent Insurance Agents of America [IIAA] next 
month in Orlando. Mr. Miller is president of Hamman-Miller-Beauchamp-
Deeble, Inc., an independent insurance agency located in Long Beach.
  Harlan has enjoyed a long and distinguished career as an independent 
insurance agent. His service to both his national and State 
association, the Independent Insurance Agents and Brokers of California 
[IIABC], is equally long and impressive. Harlan held several elective 
offices in the California association including secretary-treasurer, 
vice president, and president. He began his commitment to the national 
organization by serving as the State association's representative to 
IIAA's board of directors.
  Harlan was elected to IIAA's executive committee in Los Angles in 
1989. In the time since then he has exhibited a spirit of dedication 
and concern for his 300,000 colleagues around the country.
  Harlan's selfless attitude is also evident in the depth of his 
involvement in Long Beach-area community activities. He is a past 
president of the Kiwanis Club, Community Volunteer Office, the 
International City Club and the Long Beach Boy Scout Council and has 
worked with numerous other Long Beach civic groups. During my 
presidency of California State University, Long Beach, Harlan was a 
very active member of the President's Associates. Currently, he sits on 
the board of the Memorial Medical Center, Memorial Heart Institute and 
the Advisory Council Junior League of Long Beach.
  I have worked closely with the Independent Insurance Agents and 
Brokers of California and IIAA's Capitol Hill office, and it will be a 
distinct pleasure for me to work with fellow Californian Harlan Miller 
over the coming year as he serves as president of the Nation's largest 
insurance association.
  I have complete confidence that Harlan will serve with distinction as 
president of the Independent Insurance Agents of America and I wish him 
all the best in his new role.
