                    in the house of representatives

                          Friday, May 10, 1996

  Mr. GILLMOR. Mr. Speaker, it gives me great pleasure to rise today 
and bring attention to a civic event being held in Elmore, OH, on June 
13. This is the 10th annual BrushPride Day sponsored by the Brush 
Wellman Corp. The theme for this year's event is ``BrushPride--
Community Wide.''
  This Ohio company and its subsidiaries supply worldwide markets with 
beryllium products, alloy products, ceramic products, precious metal 
products, and speciality metal systems. As their mission statement so 
aptly states:

       We are committed to on time delivery of defect free 
     competitive products and services to all of our customers by 
     always performing to requirements.

  The company is not only a world class performer on the international 
stage, but a model citizen in its own community.
  BrushWellman is a company renowned for its civic pride and commitment 
to service. This year's event will highlight the good works 
BrushWellman employees contribute to their community. Anniversaries are 
a time to reflect upon a steadfast tradition of service. The 10th 
annual BrushPride Day is also a time to look toward new horizons. 
BrushWellman employees have made it their responsibility to serve those 
in need by keeping pace with the ever increasing challenges facing 
mankind.
  Mr. Speaker, it is obvious that Ohio has greatly benefited from the 
efforts of the employees of BrushWellman. I ask my colleagues to join 
me today in recognizing the achievements of these dedicated achievers 
and encourage them to continue to uphold what has become the standard 
for excellence in Ohio.
