                        SALUTE TO JOSEPH NEWTON

                                 ______


                        HON. THOMAS M. FOGLIETTA

                            of pennsylvania

                    in the house of representatives

                      Tuesday, September 27, 1994

  Mr. FOGLIETTA. Mr. Speaker, I rise to salute my constituent, Joseph 
Newton. Against all odds, Mr. Newton successfully formed Tri-Lucy 
Express. I am told that Tri-Lucy is the first African-American owned 
courier service to be licensed in Pennsylvania. The Interstate Commerce 
Commission has licensed Tri-Lucy to operate in the 48 contiguous 
States, and the company has agents in each one.
  Mr. Newton's company will soon employ 13, currently unemployed, 
people from my district. His company is a model for small businesses in 
our hard-hit urban areas.
  I applaud Mr. Newton for his perseverance and his foresight in 
forming this firm.
