Minister of Manufacturing in Germaany

      An unannounced trip began this week for our versatile Minister.  I'm sure it has something to do with Warren Buffett.  Berkshire Hathaway announced midweek that the conglomerate purchased an aerospace manufacturer: Precision CastingPart of Portland, Oregon.  It was the largest purchase ever made by Berkshire: $32.3 billion dollars.   Much of its work is done in Massachusetts under a subsidiary: Wyman-Gordon Manufacturing.  Wyman owns the largest hydraulic press in the USA at 50,000 tons capacity.
     Our own minister, already involved in cutting-edge industry, headed to Cologne, Germany to observe local manufacturing.  He was escorted by a brace of local leaders and businessmen.  Germany is Europe's economic leader, helping the EU break out of its years long recession.  I'm sure he'll have quite a bit of information to share among local Tahomans.
