                IN MEMORY OF REV. DR. ALBERT MOSES TYLER

  (Mr. PASCRELL asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. PASCRELL. Mr. Speaker, today I address the House on the passing 
of a great man, a great American, Rev. Dr. Albert Moses Tyler, who died 
at 93 years of age in Paterson, NJ.
  He was a minister for 69 years, and head of St. Luke's Baptist Church 
in Paterson for 62 years. He spoke softly about our dignity and human 
rights but always intensified his efforts to make sure that our civil 
rights are protected.
  We have lost a great American, but his legacy lives on. I try in this 
House to carry on his great model of principles which he brought forth.
