the success of our economy and the well-being of our Nation; and

of the organized safety movement; and

National Safety Council; and

Safety Council; and 
Whereas the National Safety Council, as a guardian of the public 
interest, has proved its dedication to the safety and welfare of the 
Nation's citizens, as set forth in its Federal charter: Therefore be it
