จากการค้้นคว้า เกี่ยวกับ http://www.pantip.com/cafe/klaibann/topic/H7769632/H7769632.html เมื่อพระเจ้าอยู่หัวเสด็จอเมริกา ทรงมีพระราชดำรัส TO THE UNITED STATES CONGRESS,WASHINGTON, D.C,THURSDAY 29 JUNE 1960 เกี่่ยวกับ ร ๔ ..Some of you may recall that my great-grandfather, King Mongkut, was in communica -tion with President Buchanan during the years 1859 to 1861 — 100 years ago. President Bucha- nan sent him a letter dated May 10th, 1859 with a consignment of books in 192 volumes. The King was very pleased with the books and in a letter dated the 14th of February 1861, sent cer- tain presents in return as gifts to the American people and an offer that became historic. At that period, there was great demand for elephants in our and neighboring countries. Elephants had been then sent to Ceylon, Sumatra, and Java and turned loose in the jungles for breeding purposes, and the result is that elephants are plentiful in those countries. In the past, elephants had great potentialities. From the economic point of view, they could be used in the timber industry for hauling big logs and other heavy materials, like trac- tors do in present days. As they could go through thick jungles, they were also used as beasts of burden for transport purposes. And in view of their enormous size and strength, in time of war they struck awe into the enemies. Since elephants could be put to such various good uses and since they were available in large number in Our country, as a friendly gesture to a friendly people, my great-grandfather offered to send the President and Congress, elephants to be turned loose in the uncultivated land of America for breeding purposes. That offer was made with no other objective than to provide a friend with what he lacked, in the same spirit in which the American aid program is likewise offered. And under- standing and appreciating the sentiment underlying your aid program, the Thai Government Welcomes the program and is grateful for it. http://www.ohmpps.go.th/download.php?di_key=T0003_0008&dc_key=BP2519039&di_sub=0&download=chap&file=T0003
