WILLIAM O. LIPINSKI of illinois in the house of representatives Friday, October 7, 1994 Mr. LIPINSKI. Mr. Speaker, I have had the privilege of serving with Helen Bentley for the past 10 years as a fellow Member of the House of Representatives and the past two years we have served together as colleagues on the Subcommittee on Merchant Marine. I can confidently say that Helen is the strongest advocate for the maritime industry I have met in my tenure as the Chairman of the Subcommittee on Merchant Marine. She has dedicated her life to the support of maritime issues, from her days as a maritime reporter for the Baltimore Sun, as Chairman of the Federal Maritime Commission--(the highest ranking woman in the Federal Government at that time)--and as an active member of the Merchant Marine and Fisheries Committee. Helen has been a great mentor to me. I admire her hard hitting questioning of witnesses, her expertise and her common sense approach to government. I hope Helen will remain a part of the Maritime community. Her unwavering dedication to the U.S. Merchant Marine is unparalleled. She truly has been the conscience of merchant marine committee--she will be missed. ____________________
