                        Thursday, June 11, 1998

  Mr. BOB SCHAFFER of Colorado. Mr. Speaker, Fort Morgan, Colorado is a 
city rich with tradition and history. Set on the plains of Eastern 
Colorado, it is a symbol of the West.

[[Page E1106]]

The spirit of this town is embodied in a business that can proudly 
claim to be the oldest existing business in Fort Morgan--this business 
is Clatworthy Motors. I rise today to honor Clatworthy Motors, and its 
owner John Clatworthy, for business excellence and a commitment to 
public service.
  John Clatworthy, owner of Clatworthy Motors, is a man who carries on 
his family tradition of upholding commendable business practices as 
well as extensive community involvement. John recognizes the importance 
of youth as our future and donates his time to supporting 4-H and 
Future Farmers of America. His community involvement is not limited to 
any one area, and he is also an active member of the Cattleman's 
Association, the Chamber of Commerce, and the Colorado Automobile 
Dealers Association. Further, Clatworthy Motors has been recognized as 
Colorado's only automobile dealer nominated for Time Magazine's 
``Dealer of the Year''.
  John Clatworthy is a man who embodies the western tradition of giving 
back to the community. It is for these reasons I happily rise today to 
honor Mr. Clatworthy. I hold him up to the House, and to all Americans, 
as a shining example of the best of America's businesses. He 
exemplifies the industrious spirit, can-do attitude, and community 
involvement that made America great.
