"Wliereas Walt Disney's life personified the American dream and his 
rag;s-to-riches story demonstrated that the United States of America 
remains the land of opportunity; and 
Whereas Walt Disney, "the most significant figure in graphic arts since 
Leonardo," pioneered motion picture cartoons, produced spectacular 
feature films, and created fascinating nature studies bringing joy 
and pleasure to children of all ages; and 
Whereas Walt l)i.sney developed one of the wondere of the modern 
world, Disneyland, a fabulous park where happiness reigns and 
where one can relive the Nation's past as well as step into the future; 
and 
Whereas Walt Disney was a great humanitarian, a "teacher of human 
compassion and kindness," a master entrepreneur, a great conserva-
tionist; and 
Whereas Walt Disney's masterful touch contributed so significantly 
to the success of exhibits of the United States, including those at the 
New York and Brussels World's Fairs; and 
Whereas Walt Disney, always an outstanding patriot, during World 
War II devoted 95 per centum of the production of his studios to 
the armed services; and 
Whereas Walt Disney's vision and work with the Coordinator of 
Inter-American Affairs did so much to create international friend-
ship and mutual understanding with our neighbors in Latin Amer-
ica; and 
Whereas Walt Disney received an unprecedented number of Academy 
Awards, citations, and honors from governments the world over, 
industry, civic groups, and universities, which when listed total 
nearly a thousand; and 
Whereas Walt Disney's greatest gifts to mankind were laughter, his 
steadfast faith in future generations, and his belief that good will 
ultimately triumphs over evil; and 
Whereas Walt Disney's interest in young America is evidenced by his 
founding of the California Institute of the Arts, a college-level 
school of the creative and performing arts, which he regarded as his 
most important contribution to posterity: Now, therefore, be it
