Recognition of the 22d Biennial Convention of the Japanese American Citizens League. at this time. is extremely important. The values and principles of our democratic society have indeed been enhanced by the contributions of our Japanese Americans. Most Japanese immigrants who entered our land were young men between the ages of 20 and 40. Their .strength. their spirit. their knowledge and their ideas have become an inseparable and an invaluable part of our culture and our history. The remarkable creativity. to cite just one example. of the Japanese American architect Minora Yamasaki. an art which combines our modern functional style with the classical style of Greece and with the influence of the Orient. has brought a deep feeling of pride to all Americans.
