  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Ms. Lola Blazek on the occasion of her 100th birthday.
  Our world has changed a great deal during Lola's life. Since her 
birth, we have revolutionized air travel and walked on the moon. We 
have invented the television, cellular phones and the internet. We have 
fought in wars overseas, seen the rise and fall of Soviet communism and 
witnessed the birth of new democracies. Lola has lived through eighteen 
United States Presidents and twenty-two Governors of Iowa. In her 
lifetime, the population of the United States has more than tripled.
  Mr. Speaker, it is an honor to represent Lola in the United States 
Congress and it is my pleasure to wish her a very happy 100th birthday. 
I invite my colleagues in the House of Representatives to join me in 
congratulating Lola Blazek on reaching this incredible milestone, and 
wishing her even more health and happiness in the years to come.

                          ____________________
