                   HON. MARJORIE MARGOLIES-MEZVINSKY

                            of pennsylvania

                    in the house of representatives

                       Thursday, October 6, 1994

  Ms. MARGOLIES-MEZVINSKY. Mr. Speaker, I salute Mr. Len Ray as the 
U.S. Small Business Administration's Region III ``Minority Small 
Business Person of the Year.'' I am very proud that this honor has been 
bestowed upon a businessman in Montgomery County.
  The success and growth of Mr. Ray's company is a fine example that 
the United States is still the land of opportunity. Mr. Ray deserves 
broad recognition for his ability to create the outstanding enterprise 
which exists today. From the beginning in 1984 with only one hundred 
and fifty dollars of borrowed money and a dream, Mr. Ray has matured a 
business which today employs eighty people and projects sales of 
fifteen million dollars.
  Mr. Ray's achievement is only enhanced by his civic and charitable 
involvement in the communities where he does business, for his support 
of religious and educational institutions, and for his work with young 
people.
  I congratulate Mr. Ray on this outstanding achievement and thank him 
for the fine example he provides for Montgomery County.
