WELCOMING THE REVEREND WALTER L. SOLOMON, MT. MORIAH MISSIONARY BAPTIST 
               CHURCH OF NORTH PRATT, BIRMINGHAM, ALABAMA

  (Mr. HILLIARD asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. HILLIARD. Mr. Speaker, we welcome Reverend Walter Solomon to this 
Chamber. We are very appreciative of his leadership in Birmingham, 
Alabama, and indeed in this Nation. His work on the national level with 
the National Baptist Convention is extraordinary. Many opportunities 
have been afforded this young man and many things are expected from 
him.
  Mr. Speaker, as we move forward in these difficult times, there will 
be men like Reverend Solomon, who will make the difference. There will 
be men in this Chamber who will perform to the utmost. We thank him for 
coming this morning. May God bless him and his family, and may God 
bless America.
