Park, where we witnessed the
greatest mass demonstration
of patriotic enthusiasm and
loyalty in the history of New
York.
1t has renewed the faith
from which must spring the
defenders of our flag and
Constitution. 1t has reinforced
the belief that government
may hear the cry of the hum

shrine of equality. 1t has sus-

every man, woman and child
