Speaker. it is my pleasure to speak today about a truly great people from a land across the seas. Though thousands of miles separate the United States from Poland. our thoughts and feeling for that country and its now unhappy people are the same as if they were our own. I say this because we know them intimately from those who emigrated to America and gave of their talents to join with our people in making the United States the great Nation it is. We are justly proud of all Poles who so quickly became citizens of the United States. As early as our own Revolutionary War. immigrants from Poland distinguished themselves as industrious. idealistic. and courageous people. Today we find their descendants as leaders In every phase of American life. The year 1966 marks the Polish millennium. and it is right and proper that we here in the Congress also take note of May 3the Polish Constitution Day.
