Mr. President. on June 23 of this year. in Richmond. Va.. 37.people became citizens of the. United States in a naturalization ceremony in the Federal District Court. These natives of other lands received a unique welcome to their new citizenship. Before them appeared Mr. Ernest M. Gunzburg. a native of Germany. who 40 years ago fled Hitlers persecution of Jews and who long ago took the step that they were taking on that June daybecame a citizen of the United States. Mr. Gunzburg. having known tyranny first hand. does not take citizenship in this country lightly. He has spent many years reflecting on an aspect of citizenship which many of us too often neglect: the responsibilities of being an American.
