glory of possessing an empire on which the
sun never sets is surpassed by the glory of
the nation that every day creates for its
people wealth equal to one third Of the
daily accumulation of all the rest of man
kind. In mere wealth there is little more,
perhaps ever less, glory than in an empty
drum beat; but this wealth created in Amer
lea means greater possibilities of happiness
and comfort among the people than are fur
nished by any other nation. National pros
perity is the truest form Of national glory.
