HUGHES ______ speech of HON. JACK BROOKS of texas in the house of representatives Thursday, October 6, 1994 Mr. BROOKS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to Congressman William J. Hughes of the Second District of New Jersey. Bill Hughes has decided to retire after a distinguished career in this body spanning 20 years. Bill and I became colleagues on the Judiciary Committee in January 1975 when Bill began his service there. Congressman Hughes first chaired the Subcommittee on Crime and then became chairman of the Subcommittee on Intellectual Property and Judicial Administration at the beginning of the 102d Congress. He has been an outstanding leader in Congress on all issues on which he has worked. Bill has dealt with the difficult problems arising before his subcommittee in a workman like and skillful manner. His skill as a prosecutor and his grasp of intellectual property issues make him one of the finest lawyers ever to serve this body. He has been a loyal friend and staunch ally and I shall miss him on the committee and in the well of this House. Bill and his wife Nancy have a splendid and loving family they will now have more time to enjoy, but we will all miss Bill's dedicated service to his constituents, the Congress, and the Nation. ____________________
