                        TRIBUTE TO EDWARD FELDMAN

                                 ______


                         HON. HOWARD L. BERMAN

                             of california

                    in the house of representatives

                         Wednesday, May 3, 1995
  Mr. BERMAN. Mr. Speaker, I am honored to pay tribute to Edward 
Feldman, who is completing a 2-year term as chair of the UCLA 
Governmental Relations Steering Committee. I had the pleasure of 
working with Ed on nursing home issues when I served in the California 
Legislature in the 1970's, and can attest to his zeal and dedication in 
fighting for those causes in which he believes.
  A fellow UCLA alumnus, Ed has spent 21 of the past 27 years 
specializing in the investigation and prosecution of white collar 
crimes for the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office. His areas of 
responsibility included the major fraud 
[[Page E938]] division, where he served for more than 11 years, the 
Nursing Home Abuse Section and the Special Investigations Division. In 
August 1993, Ed was appointed acting head deputy of the newly formed 
Workers' Compensation Fraud Division of the Los Angeles County District 
Attorney's Office.
  Ed recently supplanted his busy professional life with his role as 
chair of the Governmental Relations Steering Committee, which assists 
UCLA by providing alumni support for issues coming before Federal, 
State, and local elected officials. UCLA was lucky to have him.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in saluting Ed Feldman, a 
public servant who works tirelessly to promote social justice. He is a 
shining example to us all.
