          HONORING THE STANDARD REGISTER COMPANY IN MONROE, NC

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. ROBIN HAYES

                           of north carolina

                    in the house of representatives

                      Tuesday, September 12, 2000

  Mr. HAYES. Mr. Speaker, today it is my privilege to recognize the 
Standard Register Company's facility in Monroe, NC, for successfully 
completing over 600,000 hours of operation with no lost time.
  John Q. Sherman formed Standard Register Company in 1912 in Dayton, 
OH. Mr. Sherman and his company introduced Theodore Schirmer's paper-
feeding invention, the autographic register, to the industrial world. 
Today, Standard Register is a member of the Business Forms Industry, 
and is a $1.4 billion company with approximately 8,200 associates 
nationwide.
  The plant in Monroe was formed on August 6, 1996, when Standard 
Register Company acquired Piedmont Pninting. Since that date the 
employees at the Monroe facility have worked a total of 667,613 hours 
with no lost time, no work-related injuries. This great accomplishment 
is proof of the excellent work habits of all of the members of the 
Monroe plant.
  I would like to extend special congratulations and commendations to a 
few of Standard Register's corporate officers and managers, Harry 
Seifert, Dave Fehrman, Rick Miller, Dan Buchholtz, Earl Ammons, and 
Terry E. Sizemore.
  Mr. Speaker, I would like to congratulate the employees at Standard 
Register for their superior achievements, and I would ask all of my 
colleagues to join me in paying special tribute to them.
