UTERNAT YOUTH COUNCIL UYOUTH YEAR
COMMISSION
? Mr. MOYNIHAN. Mr. President, I
rise today to bring to the attention of
this body the fine contributions of the
U.S. Youth Council (USYC). A broad
range of young Americans participate
in this fine organization, including
representatives from both political
groups, and relir)ou: orc~..:z.~t:~:
The USYC is one 0! the most dit'crsr
organizations of its i:.ind.
The USYC provides future Amencan
leaders with the opportunity to meet
with one another. while learning
about the importance of international
affairs, and to extend the hand of
friendship to their foreign counter- -
parts. The council has successfully
promoted international exchange and
educational programs, broadening the
knowledge and experiences of many of
our Nation's young persons. -
Mr. President, this worthy organza- - "
tion established the International
Youth Year Commission (IYY) in De-
cember 1981. This commission applied
for and received recognition from the
State- Department as America's fore- {
most nongovernmental group to co-
ordinate our Nation's observation of
the U.N.. International Youth Year.
Since the State Department's recogni-
tion, the membership of the IYY Com-
mission has expanded from 18 to 57
organizations. The - commission has
made significant progress in-.the last -
15 months to coordinate and promote .
the International Youth Year. -,
These two organizations- have-per-
formed a noble service-by enhancing
youth awareness and . International .
harmony. The - council and the - com-
mission deserve the- . utmost respect.
support, and commendation from this -lilt
body.
I urge my colleagues to review the
membership of the International
Youth Year- Commission. and I ask
that a list of the member groups be
printed in the RECORD. - '
