Speech #850000177

This resolution can. of course. speak only in words. But we can take comfort that the sense of justice and the indignation of the American people have moved our Government to take heart from Austrias example. What we say in this resolution in words we implement in action by doing for the refugee Hungarian patriots what Austria did for them under the threat of Soviet tanks and at peril of her life and her freedom. Ladies and gentlemen of the Congress. I am proud to offer this salute to the people of Austria: Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring). That it is the sense of the Congress of the United States that the relief and good will extended by the people of Austria to refugees from strifetorn Hungary are in the finest traditions of humanity. The Congress. therefore. hereby expresses its admiration for the humanitarian conduct of the people of Austria and extends to them its best wishes for the future.
