During his recent visit to this country. President Gronchi of Italy paid some richly deserved compliments to the work of the committee. He pointed out that the committee has done a splendid job of implementing the Refugee Relief Act of 1953 and also paid tribute to President Eisenhowers initiative in calling for more liberal immigration laws. At a conference held recently in Rochester. N. Y.. it was pointed out that the resettlement committee in that city ranks ninth in the country in sponsoring refugees. Under the chairmanship of the Honorable Charles P. Lambiase. the Rochester chapter of ACIM has compiled a remarkable record of resettling refugees and immigrants. Under leave to extend my remarks. I include the text of President Gronchis remarks before a group of ACIM leaders in New York City. and an article telling of the conference of upper New York State chairmen and officers of the American Committee on Italian Migration. held in Rochester on April 8.
