                           HON. GLEN BROWDER

                          Friday, May 10, 1996

  Mr. BROWDER. Mr. Speaker, Members of the House will have many 
occasions this year to express themselves on the distinguished career 
of our friend and colleague, Tom Bevill of Alabama. Tom will be 
retiring at the end of this year after 30 years in the House. We all 
know his dedication and his sincere interest in the betterment of this 
Nation has meant much to many of our districts throughout the country.
  Tonight, in Alabama, we are going to get a head start in paying 
tribute to Tom and his lovely wife, Lou, for all they have meant to the 
people of Alabama and the rest of the country. Many of Alabama's 
leading citizens will be at a dinner in honor of Tom at Bevill State 
Community College in Sumiton, AL.
  On this special day, we pause to enter into the Congressional Record 
our appreciation for Tom Bevill's high standard of public service.
