                         HON. GARY L. ACKERMAN

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, November 29, 1995

  Mr. ACKERMAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to join with the members of 
the Suffolk Association for Jewish Educational Services [SAJES] and my 
constituents in the fifth congressional district as they gather to 
honor Kenneth R. Kornhauser, Fred Milstein, and Leonard Cooper for 
distinguished service in advancing the cause of Jewish education in 
Suffolk County, NY.
  Through innovative and creative leadership, Kenneth R. Kornhauser has 
provided a solid basis of support to the advancement of quality Jewish 
education. A member of Temple Beth Torah, Kenneth is an involved board 
member of an array of Jewish organizations that include the Suffolk Y 
Jewish Community Center, the Gurwin Jewish Geriatric Center, the United 
Jewish Community Center of Long Island, and SAJES.
  Honoree Fred Milstein also is being recognized for his endless 
dedication to the Suffolk Jewish Community. He has exemplified himself 
and enhanced the community through his active and effective 
participation as a member of the Suffolk Jewish Center, and as a board 
member of SAJES, the Solomon Schechter Day School of Suffolk County, 
B'nai B'rith, the World Jewish Congress, and the Suffolk Jewish 
Communal Planning Council.
  Extraordinary is a word that befits SAJEs' third honoree, Leonard 
Cooper. Because of his extraordinary talents for enhancing the Suffolk 
Jewish Community, SAJES confers upon him an award of special 
recognition. Leonard has served with great distinction and 
effectiveness as the first president of the Suffolk Y Jewish Community 
Center, and he is also a board member of the Gurwin Jewish Geriatric 
Center. In addition, he has served as campaign chairman for the United 
Jewish Appeal on eastern Long Island.
  Without compensation or demand for recognition, these men have given 
of their great skills and talents to the uplifting and betterment of 
our community. It is with great pride that I call upon all my 
colleagues in the House of Representatives to join me in paying tribute 
to Kenneth R. Kornhauser, Fred Milstein, and Leonard Cooper. May their 
good works and selfless deeds serve as an example for all Americans to 
follow.
