           HONORING THE WICHITA FALLS SOCIAL SECURITY OFFICE

                                 ______


                          HON. BILL SARPALIUS

                                of texas

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, May 18, 1994

  Mr. SARPALIUS. Mr. Speaker, I would like to encourage my colleagues 
to join me in honoring the Wichita Falls Social Security Office. This 
office was recently recognized as one of the best performing offices in 
1993 in the five-State Southwest Region of the Social Security 
Administration.
  Only a select few of the 134 district and branch offices in the 
region are selected for the annual Superior Office Award by the 
agency's regional commissioner. This region includes the States of 
Arkansas, Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas.
  More than 34,355 Social Security beneficiaries and 3,500 supplemental 
security income recipients are served by the Wichita Falls office.
  I commend the Wichita Falls Social Security Office for making it a 
priority to handle all business with exceptional efficiency and 
courtesy. Those in the Wichita Falls area who depend on this office for 
Social Security and SSI payments have been lucky to work with such 
dedicated and dependable people.
  Once again, I would like to extend my congratulations to the staff of 
the Wichita Falls Social Security Office. They are very deserving of 
the annual Superior Office Award.
