original Wagner Act. After con
sulting with the heads of labor
organizations, of all labor organi
sations, we worked out what wc
thought and I still think is a fair
measure to labor and the people
of the United States. So far we
have been thwarted in our effort
to do that. But it takes more than
one battle either to win or lose
a war, and while we may be tem
porarily held hack in our effort
to carry out our promise to the
American people and what I be
lieve is fair treatment of organ
ized labor, as well as the Amer
ican people as a whole, wc will not
stop because we have been tem
porarily held back. (Applause.)
I have no doubt that if the facts
are laid before the American peo
ple and their relationship between
agriculture and labor and finance
and business in its true aspect laid
before them they’d write a verdict
in accordance with the facts. Wt
shall be able ultimately to write
a labor law that will be fair to
labor and fair to every element
of our population in order that we
may have a contented population
for those who work with their
hands, labor Vith their brawn and
their muscle and blood and their
brain to maintain the industrial
supremacy of our nation, and en
able us to perform our mission
of the world, which is a mission
of leadership in this day of chaos
and frustration, when all the na
tions of the world, who believe in
freedom and in self-government,
are now looking to us for leader
ship in this day of chaos and mis
understanding and groping. I am
happy myself, although the re
sponsibility is great, that the lead
ership of the world has fallen into
our hands. We did not seek it.
It is not something we canvassed
for. It is not something we went
out and electioneered on behalf of.
But the very circumstances, world
conditions following two World
Wars, and all the nations engaged
were devastated and people up
rooted, found hopeless, turned in
stinctively to this great nation
which was not touched by the wars
physically, except in the tragic loss
of over a million of our finest
young men and expenditures of
350 billion dollars out of the peo
ples’ pockets through the treasury
of the United States to win a war

to preserve democracy and free-1
' dora of this country and the world.
I am happy that in our regard
of partisanship and to our foreign
affairs and our intercourse with
other nations there has been no
politics, has been no partisanship.
Both parties have agreed and fol
lowed a course which recognized
our leadership and our responsibil
ity of the greatest nation in the
1 world. Now, it is an expensive
venture. It is costing us money.
It is the greatest adventure ever
made by any nation in the world,
in all of history. And would it
'not be a glorious thing, my friends,
1 if through the wise exercise of
this leadership we may be able
ultimately to lead the nations out i
1 of the mires of chaos and miasma j
or rear or war, devastation and of
destruction, so that mankind, over
two billion human beings who long ■
for liberty, equality and justice, j
may some day plant their feet on
the solid rock of peace and pros
perity and happiness and under
standing and march forward to the
future with the expenditure of all
: these fantastic sums for the de
velopment of all mankind, and for
1 his advancement for the use of
the energies which are discovered
and invented by man for the wel
fare rather than for the destruc
tion of human beings. (Applause.)
And it is essential that we do this ,
in order that our own institutions
may be safe. For more than 1501
years we have believed in and prac-1
ticed ordinary freedom for inde
pendent individuals to want for
themselves and their families, rec
ognising the dignity of the indi
vidual*man. We have had freedom
of religion placed in our Consti
tution, with the first amendment
: to the Constitution containing a
bill of rights providing that Con
gress shall make no law respect
ing an establishment of religion >'
1 or prohibiting the free exercise'
thereof, or abridging the right of
free speech or the free press or'
'rights freely to assemble to peti
tion the government for a redress
'of grievances. Our whole civiliza
I tion in America has been built upon
the freedom of worship, freedom
of speech, freedom of the press,
freedom of assembly, and the
great man who led us out of the
wilderness in 1932, Franklin
Delano Roosevelt, (applause) add
ed two more freedoms just as es
sential. One of them was free- 1
dom from fear. The other was
freedom from want. I do not know
of a greater movement that could j
come to the union men or to the
world than to be free from fear,
fear of destruction and fear of
injustice, fear of economic inabil
ity or instability or inequality, fear
of want; and in order to in some
way dispel the fear of want we
have enacted in this country a
social security system providing
old age pensions (which are not i
enough, which I believe ought to
be increased), unemployment in- \
surance and compensation so tnat
man who descends to the sunset of
life, who sees the shadows length
ening, will not have to rely upon
charity or upon their relatives in
order to live an independent life
the rest of their days, (applause)
in order that men who find them
selves temporarily unemployed,
through no fault of their own, may
be free from the fear of economic
disaster for themselves and their
families.
These are some of the things
for which we stand, my friends.
These are some of the things which
the American people time and
again overwhelmingly endorsed in
this country. These are some of
the things we shall continue to
work to bring about, not as a mat
ter of favoritism to any group,
but as a matter of justice, equity
to all groups of our people regard
less of their politics, regardless of
1 their religion, regardless of their
color, race or creed, in order that
we may more rapidly approach the
real justice of democracy for all
our people which is so effective
in our efforts to restore and pre
serve democracy throughout the
world.
It has been a great pleasure for
me to be here. I am always in
spired when I look into the faces,
! the eager faces of men and women
: who are trying in their level best
to do their share for promoting
the welfare of this great country
> to bring about justice, to bring
about tolerance and forbearance
and understanding among all of
our people. And I wish that the
time may come that we shall be j
able to establish such a perma-|
nent and stable policy of relation !
ship between labor and employers, \
between agriculture and labor and'
business, finance and all the rest |
of our people. This is the hour'
I long have sought and mourned
because I found it not. I t! an’: j
you very much. (Applause.)
