                       HONORING MARTIN MUMAW III

  (Mr. BUCSHON asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. BUCSHON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor an exceptional 
Hoosier, dedicated public servant, and a good friend of mine, Martin 
Mumaw III--a man with a strong desire to help others and a man who has 
been a tremendous asset to the Eighth District of Indiana.
  Martin has dedicated over 40 years of service to Indiana, the Eighth 
District, and Daviess County Republican Parties. He is currently 
serving his fourth term in elected office as Daviess County treasurer. 
He also has worked with many civic organizations and within the 
Republican Party as precinct committeeman, county chairman, and member 
of the Eighth District Central Committee.
  His public service and civic engagement have been a means by which 
Martin has improved the lives of those around him. His dedication and 
service led former Indiana Governor Robert Orr to name him ``Sagamore 
of the Wabash'' in 1988, an award for distinguished public service.
  While his public service has been tremendous, Martin is probably best 
known for his fellowship, kind heart, and sense of humility. He's never 
met an enemy and is the first to extend a helping hand.
  I'm proud to stand here today to honor Martin's history of service, a 
history to which we all owe a debt of gratitude. God bless you, Martin 
Mumaw.
