  The John H. Harland Company is the second largest check printer in 
the United States and the leading provider of database marketing to 
financial institutions. Founded in 1923, the John H. Harland Company 
opened its Dallas facility in 1974. Today, this facility employs 320 
people and processes 112,000 orders per week. In April 1997, John H. 
Harland Company moved into the 26th Congressional District, opening a 
83,000 square foot facility in Grapevine, Texas.
  Harland's recent move to a regional network of nine production 
facilities has brought additional work into the Grapevine facility and 
has contributed to the local economy. It also improves the quality of 
the company's services and offers greater economic security for its 
employees and their families.
  I offer my sincere congratulations to the employees of this facility 
and to the John H. Harland Company on this momentous occasion.
