                         HON. GARY L. ACKERMAN

                        Tuesday, March 12, 1996

  Mr. ACKERMAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to join with the members of 
the Young Leadership Committee of the New York chapter of the Juvenile 
Diabetes Foundation, as they hold their seventh annual masked ball 
honoring Hugh Miller. Known as an astute businessman in the world of 
finance, Mr. Miller is president and CEO the Delta Funding Corp., a 
company dealing primarily with the origination, purchase, and servicing 
of nonconforming residential mortgage loans. Indeed, the industry has 
looked to Mr. Miller for leadership, and he has served in that capacity 
as a representative of the National Home Equity Mortgage Association, 
National Mortgage Brokers Association, Executive Enterprises, American 
Community Bankers, Information Management Network, and Mortgage Bankers 
Association of America.
  Yet despite the ongoing demands on his time and talents, Hugh Miller 
has vigorously and effectively undertaken a myriad of social 
responsibilities. Many diverse organizations including the National 
Kidney Foundation, Police Conference of New York and Nassau County, 
DARE, the American Cancer Society, the Leukemia Society of America, 
Hofstra University

Scholarship Funds, and the Huntington's Disease Society of America have 
greatly benefited from his service. His experience in this regard has 
emerged as a yardstick by which all such future dedication is measured. 
Furthermore, in conjunction with the Interfaith Nutritional Network, 
Delta Funding has created the Delta Funding Inn, which caters to the 
needs of disadvantaged youths.
  Mr. Speaker, in a time when we search for heroes and leaders, it is 
most reassuring to know that people such as Hugh Miller are tirelessly 
striving for the betterment of society. I ask my colleagues to join me 
in honoring Hugh Miller for his constant dedication in the regard.
