                       IN MEMORY OF CARLTON MOORE

  (Mr. HASTINGS of Florida asked and was given permission to address 
the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. HASTINGS of Florida. Madam Speaker, the day before yesterday, I 
lost a dear friend. Carlton Moore was a former city commissioner and 
president of the NAACP. To his mother, Ada, and family, I offer my 
heartfelt condolences.
  I had the good fortune of witnessing Carlton's entire career. He 
served with distinction in our community, and he was a businessman par 
excellence. He was a visionary, and fortunately, many of the things 
that were his concepts did come to fruition.
  My community, Florida, and this Nation have lost a warrior for truth 
and justice.
