It is only natural that we lend our full support to the Polish people today. We can not rest while others continue to be denied their right to be free from foreign control. A commemoration of Pulaskis life also is a recognization of the accomplishments made by Polish Americans and the hundreds of thousands of other immigrants to the United States. They pledged loyalty to their new country and contributed in many important ways to this Nations greatness. General Pulaski thus is symbolic of the aspirations of millions. both in our Nations history and for the future of people everywhere. He is symbolic of mans love for freedom. Yet he is also symbolic of the contributions made by the many immigrants who have come to call America their home. Perhaps President Kennedy best explained why so much attention should be placed on a foreigner who was in America for less than 2 years. He represented a different culture. a different language. a different way of life.
