    Statement on the Technology Reinvestment Project
    December 3, 1993

        To win in the new global economy and safeguard our national
    security, America must invest in new technologies with both commercial
    and military applications. This program will help give us the edge that
    will keep America strong and create new jobs at the same time.

        This program is designed to keep American manufacturing workers,
    from the engineers to the machine operators, at the top of their fields.
    Efficient, high-quality production using a skilled, well-equipped work
    force will put American products on shelves throughout the world and put
    Americans to work in high-paying jobs here at home.

    Note: This statement was included in a White House announcement of the
    third group of awards in the technology reinvestment project.
