                            A PLEA FOR HELP

  (Mr. KINGSTON asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. KINGSTON. Mr. Speaker, I rise to ask House Members within my 
voice maybe for some help. About three or 4 years ago we found a man in 
Savannah, Georgia, who's in his late forties, maybe early fifties, who 
does not have identity. We have no idea who he is or where he came 
from. But he is an intelligent, apparently college-educated, middle 
management type guy, maybe from Indiana. Mr. Burton actually helped us 
on him a little bit because he has memories of Indiana and Denver, 
Colorado. We've talked to the FBI. They've done a background check. 
We've talked to Social Security. They've done a background check. We've 
gone to many Federal agencies and asked them for their assistance 
trying to identify this gentleman. He has no Social Security number so 
he can't get a job. And he is totally in abeyance, basically forced to 
be homeless if not for the charity of some people who've taken an 
interest in his case.
  So if anybody knows of a way to identify somebody, I would 
respectfully ask you to please let me know what it is, and I will be 
glad to follow whatever lead you can give me. And I appreciate that and 
thank you very much.
