  Mr. HILL. Mr. Speaker, I rise to commemorate 125 years of the 
International Paper Company.
  International Paper, IP, was founded in January 1898 and they 
celebrated their 125th anniversary in January, an incredible milestone 
in our Nation.
  Their company is committed to providing essential products that 
people depend on, including being one of the world's largest producers 
of fiber-based products.
  Essential paper and paper products are important in our everyday 
lives, ensuring goods are protected, and keeping consumers safe.
  They're a driver of local economic development in our great state.
  There are over 550 IP employees in six facilities throughout 
Arkansas, which 150 of those work at the Conway, Arkansas graphic 
plant.
  I congratulate International Paper for their 125 years of service, 
and I look forward to their continued impact on Arkansas and around the 
world.

                          ____________________
