The United States. for example. has been enriched by the talents of such singers as Enrico Caruso and Mario Lanza. In fashion. in cuisine. in moving pictures. Italians have deeply affected American life. The bonds of friendship between the United States and Italy have been forged for more than two centuries. It is a process which dates back to our earliest days when small groups of Italians joined the early explorers and settlers who landed on our shores. Those new citizens sought and found freedom of opportunity. of speech. of assembly. They and succeeding generations of Italian immigrants have made lasting contributions to our American heritage. Mr. President.
