             IN RECOGNITION OF OREGON MUTUAL INSURANCE CO.

 Mr. HATFIELD. Mr. President, I thank my colleagues for this 
opportunity to share with them the story of a successful company well 
known to the people of Oregon.
  The Oregon Mutual Insurance Co. has served Oregonians for 100 years 
since its founding in 1894. It began as the Oregon Fire Relief 
Association, started by early pioneers interested in creating a mutual 
insurance company in which all policyholders would agree to protect one 
another during times of need.
  Today, the Oregon Mutual Insurance Co. carries on in the same 
pioneering, resilient spirit upon which the company was founded, 
extending neighborly assistance to those in need. Sustaining a strong, 
viable company for 100 years is an admirable accomplishment. With 
assets of nearly $100 million and a staff of 270, Oregon Mutual now 
serves policyholders throughout Oregon, Idaho, Washington, and 
California.
  Maintaining a strong foundation in local communities, Oregon Mutual 
takes great pride in living up to its responsibilities as a good 
corporate citizen. Oregon Mutual has served the public well by 
protecting the interests of policyholders. Oregon Mutual Insurance Co. 
has a proud heritage and a solid foundation to carry the company into 
the future.
