                SALUTE TO THE HONORABLE WILLIAM CLINGER

  (Mr. FOX asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. FOX of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, my fellow colleagues, I would 
be remiss if I did not also give special mention to the Honorable 
William Clinger, who has served this House with distinction, most 
recently as the chairman of the Government Reform and Oversight 
Committee where he has in a very bipartisan manner, a very judicious 
manner, he has been the individual who has overseen the hearings that 
deal with Whitewater and Filegate and various other matters that are 
very sensitive to the United States.
  I think the people of central Pennsylvania were privileged to have 
someone of his class, his distinction, and his honor serving us here in 
this body, and to Bill Clinger and his family, well deserved 
retirement, but he was a role model for many of us in Congress and he 
will be sorely missed.
