I am privileged to take the floor today to pay tribute to the American Hungarian Federation on the 60th anniversary of its origin. Several of our distinguished colleagues are joining in this recognition of an outstanding organization of Americans of Hungarian descent who represent the finest traditions of freedom. justice. truth. and human dignity. It was back in 1907 when the State of Ohio chartered a new organization. one which was formed at the end of 1906 by the representatives of Hungarian immigrants and citizens of Hungarian descent meeting in Cleveland from all the larger cities and States of our Nation. The organization was called the American Hungarian Federation which already contained at that date most of the churches. fraternal associations. and civic and cultural organizations of Americans of Hungarian descent. Today.
