                             HON. MIKE WARD

                       Thursday, December 7, 1995

  Mr. WARD. Mr. Speaker, it is my honor and pleasure to congratulate 
the National Council of Jewish Women, Louisville section on its 100th 
year of birth. Over those 100 years the council has been undaunted in 
its commitment to serve the community of Louisville.
  The Louisville Chapter of NCJW has admirably fought for the 
protection of women, children, and the elderly. They have acted as a 
community foundation in the upgrading, safeguarding, and the protection 
of public education.
  The basis for the success of the NCJW has been its hands-on 
volunteering. This volunteer experience is a phenomenon shared through 
a century by people bound together through religion, culture, and 
history.
  Throughout their existence the National Council of Jewish Women have 
been a positive force for decency, dignity, and respect for the 
individual in the Louisville community. I salute them on their 100th 
anniversary.
