                     RETIREMENT OF DALLAS L. HAYDEN

 Mr. BROWNBACK. Mr. President, on December 24, 2005, Dallas L. 
Hayden, a native son of Kansas retired from Federal service with 26 
years with the Department of Agriculture, Office of Inspector General. 
Mr. Hayden retired as the Special Agent-in-Charge of the Great Plains 
Region of which Kansas is included.
  Mr. Hayden exemplified all that a Federal law enforcement agent 
should: integrity, loyalty, and above all, the belief that the laws of 
the land are paramount. Politics never played a part in any 
investigation under his control. Only the facts mattered.
  I want to publicly commend Mr. Hayden for his service and wish only 
the best for him and his family in the years to come.
