                TRIBUTE TO BILL BUTLER ON HIS RETIREMENT

                                 ______


                          HON. PAUL E. GILLMOR

                                of ohio

                    in the house of representatives

                       Wednesday, October 18, 1995

  Mr. GILLMOR. Mr. Speaker, I want to take this opportunity to pay 
tribute to an outstanding citizen of Ohio and a good friend. William E. 
Butler, chairman of the board of Eaton Corp., will retire from that 
position this year.
  Bill Bulter joined Eaton in 1957 as assistant employee relations 
manager of the Dyanamatic Division. Over the years, he has been a 
creative, innovative, and reliable leader in the Cleveland business 
community. Directing a global corporation with over $6.1 billion in 
sales is no easy task. Eaton's reputation as a manufacturer of quality 
engineered products is due in large measure to Bill's dedication and 
professionalism.
  In addition to his tremendous business expertise. Bill has also given 
nearly four decades to bettering his community. Whether as a member of 
the board of directors of Cleveland Tomorrow and the Greater Cleveland, 
or as the 1994 United Way general campaign chairman, Bill has always 
earned the respect of his peers. I hope he enjoys a retirement that is 
as fulfilling and rewarding as his career.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in congratulating Bill 
Butler for his numerous achievements over the years, and I wish him and 
his family all the best in the years ahead.

                          ____________________
