                           HON. CHARLIE ROSE

                       Tuesday, December 20, 1994

  Mr. ROSE. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this time to recognize 
Ms. Ruth Braswell Truman, who will be celebrating her 80th birthday on 
January 8, 1995. Ms. Truman is a native North Carolinian and a 
constituent of mine. She was born in Winston-Salem in 1915 to Flora and 
Lonnie Braswell and attended R.J. Reynolds High School and High Point 
College.
  After her move to Washington, DC, in 1936, she pursued a career with 
a major life insurance company where she worked until her retirement in 
1973. Ms. Truman now resides in Wilmington, NC, and is an active member 
of Wrightsville United Methodist Church. I would like to congratulate 
her and extend the best wishes of the U.S. Congress as she approaches 
this great milestone.
