  Mr. SHUSTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Clark Metal 
Products Co. on its 50th Anniversary and to thank the company for its 
numerous contributions to the community.
  Now a third generation family business, Clark Metal Products Co. has 
maintained a strong commitment to improving the quality and integrity 
of its product while exceeding the expectations of its customers. The 
company was founded by J.W. Clark, Sr. in 1954 upon the principle of 
providing efficient, top quality work at a reasonable cost, and the 
progress that it has made in the past fifty years confirms the 
company's dedication to this principle. Since that date, the company 
has expanded its capabilities and heightened its goals tremendously as 
it strives to become a world-class organization.
  In the last fifty years the company has come closer to reaching this 
goal. Clark Metal Products Co. was recently named to the Pittsburgh 
Technology Council's Tech 50 list, which is comprised of the 50 best 
technology-related companies in the Pittsburgh region. Centrally 
located in the heart of the northeast, the company has been able to 
continue a steady growth rate since its inception.
  As one of Pennsylvania's leading technology companies, Clark Metal 
Products Co. offers complete fabrication services such as, CNC punching 
and laser cutting, CNC forming, CNC machining, MIG and TIG welding, 
paint and powder coating, silk screening and mechanical assembly. 
Regardless of the task at hand, the experience and expertise of each 
and every employee guarantees every project to be completed with the 
best possible results.
  For its incomparable generosity, service to the community, and 
unabated commitment to excellence, Clark Metal Products Co. deserves 
the highest recognition. The company continues to grow and maintain a 
high level of quality, providing an example that all businesses should 
follow. I congratulate the Clark Metal Products Co. on its 50th 
Anniversary and eagerly await its future progress.
