In that connection may I also express my appreciation of the endorsement by the chairman. the able and distinguished gentleman from . New York. of the wise and effective administration of our international affairs by the Department of State. As he well said. we must make it plain to Stalin. and I might add. to all other European and Asiatic heads of state. that we insist on free elections in Poland and elsewhere and that we will resist further encroachment on Greece and Turkey and that we demand that the agreements heretofore entered into by them be adhered to meticulously. America is the traditional friend of Poland and the Polish people. More than any other one man. exPresident Wilson was the determining factor in the rehabilitation and reestablishment of Poland following the First World War.
