  Mr. DAVIS of Tennessee. Mr. Speaker, I wish to recognize and commend 
the activities of the American Legion Auxiliary Unit 146 in Loretto, 
Tennessee. This fine organization really believes in helping Veterans, 
children, and the community in every way they can.
  During the Holiday Season, and throughout the year, this active 
Veteran's Organization visits VA hospitals, nursing homes, law 
enforcement agencies, and hospitals to distribute gifts and goodwill. 
The Legion has even adopted an indilgent individual at the Murfreesboro 
Tennessee VA, where they send him a quarterly check to help defray the 
costs of personal items, as well as gifts, snacks, and cards throughout 
the year.
  Mr. Speaker, the tireless and unselfish activities of those involved 
with the American Legion Auxiliary Unit 146 in Loretto Tennessee, is 
truly commendable. I hope you will join me in saluting this outstanding 
organization and all that they do.

                          ____________________
