ON THIS Independence Day of the Estonian Republic, I extend to you and your fellow countrymen most cordial felicitations.
The noble and disinterested public services of Haym Salomon deserve the undying gratitude of all Americans.
I always feel like apologizing when you all come here and I haven't anything to tell you, but that is the case today.
For these reasons, I do not feel that I can approve this legislation.
