John Kennedy actually said...

So we are glad to welcome them all here and to express appreciation to Members of Congress who are serving and to the other American citizen...

I think that this country has based great hopes in the United Nations since 1945.

It is a great pleasure to participate once again in this inauguration of the new delegation.

I am confident that this year, as in the past, we will break new ground in the effort to provide for a more peaceful world.
