                CONGRATULATIONS TO MR. AND MRS. MATTHEWS

                                 ______


                         HON. EARL F. HILLIARD

                               of alabama

                    in the house of representatives

                         Wednesday, May 1, 1996

  Mr. HILLIARD. Mr. Speaker. There has been a great deal of discussion 
about the importance of family values in America during this session of 
Congress, and I can offer no better example than of Mr. and Mrs. 
Matthews of Bessemer, AL.
  This Wednesday, May 1, will mark the 50th wedding anniversary of 
William and Margaret Matthews. By celebrating 50 years of marriage, 
they are serving as a shining example of what love, commitment, and 
dedication can do for a loving relationship and for society. I want to 
offer them my personal best wishes and congratulations on achieving 
this milestone in their relationship.
