                            of pennsylvania

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, August 10, 2010

  Mr. SHUSTER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate my dear 
friends and constituents at the McLanahan Corporation on the occasion 
of their 175th anniversary, which they will celebrate on August 28, 
2010. Located in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania, McLanahan Corporation has 
long been committed to service, innovation, and family ownership. From 
its founding in the 1830s when James Craig McLanahan moved his family 
to Hollidaysburg, where the company first produced castings used in 
farm implements, McLanahan Corporation has developed into an 
international powerhouse as a supplier not only of equipment, but also 
of process solutions.
  McLanahan Corporation is poised to remain a leader well into the 
future as its customer base has expanded from a small town in central 
Pennsylvania to reach around the world. Customers have grown to 
appreciate McLanahan's heavy-duty equipment and outstanding customer 
service and support. All of this has been done without abandoning its 
roots or compromising its sound values as the 6th generation of family 
now assumes a leadership and ownership role.
  I ask my colleagues to join me in congratulating The McLanahan 
Corporation on their 175 years in business.

                          ____________________
