Thus. I know somewhat of the great faith of the Polish nation and people in cultural values and democratic ideals. This years double celebration is marked however by tragic irony in that the Communist regime in Warsaw is doing everything in Its power to isolate the Polish nation from the West in this year of celebration. Visas have been refused to Catholic prelates and other eminent Americans. American pilgrimages to Polands national shrine are being canceled. The Communists are resorting to all kinds of chicanery in order to discourage tourists from the West from visiting the land of their ancestry.
