                         TRIBUTE TO STEVE NEAL

  (Mr. DAVIS of Illinois asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. DAVIS of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, last week all of Chicago and all 
of those who read the Chicago Sun Times were shocked at the death of 
Steve Neal.

                              {time}  1015

  Steve Neal was one of the premier political columnists in the 
country. I was particularly shocked because I was scheduled to have 
lunch with Steve on Friday of last week. Steve Neal was one of the 
premier writers about politics and political action in the Nation. All 
of us are going to miss him, so I express my condolences to his family, 
his wife and children and say that all of our lives have been enriched 
by the opportunity to read the writings of Steve Neal.
