It was the skill. effort and vision of Columbus that eventually brought to the worlds scene the Land of Libertythe great American colossus of the West. In this respect. the spirit of Columbus lived on and our American heritage has been greatly enriched by the cultures. backgrounds. and traditions of the multitude of immigrants who followed Columbus westward. The millions of Columbus countrymen who have emigrated to our Nation have made substantial contributions to our national culture In every field and I am proud that many of these Italian Americans reside in my congressional district and in the Buffalo. N.Y.. area. On the occasion of this Columbus Day.
