In God We Trust'
By RABBI NOBMAN SALIT
FreaMeat, 9yiu|t<ue Canned
Of AMwics
(Note: This U published in the
int treat at Brotherhood Week.
February 20-27, sponsored by the
National Conference ol Christiana
and Jews).
America is a young land, but a
great land, a powerful land, a good
land. And it has become that way
because we've been able to avoid
the hatreds that have swept far
older nations and drenched them
with fratricidal blood.
America has enjoyed good soil,
good mineral deposits, good feel
ling. That feeling sprang from the
kind of folk that settled this con
tinent. In the .sober business of
building a country, of creating a
nation, of spanning and peopling
and developing a continent, co
operation was the all-fmportant
necessity, and cooperation depend
ed on neighborly feeling.
And thus, in the final analysis,
it is Brotherhood on which Ameri
ca is based. Without it, the Articles
of Confederation and the Constitu
tion would never have been adopt
ed. With it, our country has grown
greater in shorter time than any
other nation in history. Without
Brotherhood, we might today be
a snarling group of continually
feuding, mutually destructive prin
cipalities; with it, we liave arrived
at continental strength and world
leadership.
Our nation'! motto is, "In God
We Trust." It might also well be
that glorious sentence from the
133rd Psalm, "Behold, how good
and how pleasant it is for brethen
to dwell together in unity!"
We have had, of course, Inter
ruptions in this flow of under
standiag and good will; the Know
Nothing movement, the Ku Klux
Klan, the Silver Shirts, the Christ
ian Fronters. On occasion, men
have made their voices heard
growling with hatred, quivering
with incitement, oiljr with deceit
But It is a tribute to the moral
strength and the hard common
sense of our peopU that these
movements have been short-lived
and these men repudiated.
America has too much invested
in Brotherhood, America owes too
much to Brotherhood, to allow it
to wither. It is the sap which keeps
young and alive the giant organism
that is our country. It is the cement
which binds together the great
blocks composing the still greater
edifice of our spacious land. It Is
the spirit which gives life and
direction to the tremendous physi
cal resources of our widespread
and fertile acres and to our popu
lation of one hundred sixty mil
lions.
We do well to say on our coins
and stamps, "In God We Trust."
We will do even better to continue
unswervingly on this hallowed path
of Brotherhood, so that God can
put His trust in us.
