A TRIBUTE



[[Page iii]]

In volume 12 of this work in September 1997, it was acknowledged that 
former Parliamentarian Lewis Deschler had collaborated with his 
successor, Wm.     Holmes Brown, in the preparation of these volumes. 
Mr. Brown continued to assist in the preparation of these volumes 
following his retirement in 1994 until his death on May 27, 2001. In
particular, Mr. Brown's work on Volume 16 reflects his intimate 
involvement during his term as Parliamentarian with many questions 
involving House-Senate relations and conference reports. Mr. Brown was
eulogized in the House on June 5, 2001 (147 CONG. REC. H2862 (daily 
ed.), 107th Cong. 1st Sess.).

CHARLES W. JOHNSON,
Parliamentarian
February 2002.
