  Mr. OXLEY. Mr. Speaker, I stand before you today to commend Sidney 
Tool and Die on its 50th anniversary. Under the ownership of Sargeant 
and Bensman families, Sidney Tool and Die has been a distinguished 
corporate citizen in the Sidney community since 1954. It has 
demonstrated its commitment to its customers by developing state-of-
the-art tooling and assembly equipment and speciality machines for 
rubber and plastic product manufacturers. It takes exceptional 
leadership to maintain a business that prides itself on high quality 
products, hardworking employees and superior customer service.
  Sidney Tool and Die has also given so much back to the community 
whose name it bears. Its owner, employees, retirees, and their families 
can be rightfully proud of this anniversary. Ohio is rightfully proud 
of its industrial base, and businesses like Sidney Tool and Die help to 
keep this tradition strong.
