First of all we have to understand, that we are not citizens of Hungary. We are citizens of the United States or Canada by choice or birth. Our allegiance is first to God, secondly to the land we now call our own, and thirdly to ourfamily, which includes the Magyar Heritage we inherited from our parents or grandparents. These three go together — it cannot be separated. For this reason this magazine was reborn in 1974. After ten years of struggle, years of verbal abuses, lack of enthusiasm from our religious or social/political leaders, we are still around. During the past ten years the subscription fluctuated at the 1,000 mark, lost some — gained some. A few months ago a spark started in New Jersey, lit by Paul Pulitzer and his friends, plain ordinary people. Slowly we can see a few buds coming out on the branch, and we hope that their effort will develop into a full blossomed branch with an abundance of fruit. We need many, many fully blossomed branches to have our Heritage Tree grow into a fruit bearing tree. The Eighth Hungarian Tribe magazine and the Hungarian Eighth Tribe Foundation were brought forth to serve the Hungarian American Community, not just one or two factions. So, we ask all of you to attend the Heritage Conference on May 26, 27 and 28th if you are sincere in your feelings, but we ask you to stay away, if your aim is to disrupt the proceeding of the Conference.
