The text OF WarlngS adj
dress follows:
THERE is high drama in this
Il assembly of the Legion here
at Lincoln'S tomb. We have come
from the South, and from the
North: from the East and from
the West and oHf presence typi-
fies the unity of the American
people in this the gravest hour
of our nations history.
Indicative is the fact that /,
as the national commander of
the American Legion, hailing
from the deep South where my
forebears served the Confed-
eracy. lead this pilgrimage to
Lincoln's shrine. Here, with my
comrades, l pledge the allie
glance OF every Legionnaire TO
this government and TO the
principles for which Lincoln
fought and Lincoln died.
THIS government of ours, a
Il government of the people,
by the people and for the people,
for which Lincoln gave his life,
is in its gravest peril.
It is being attacked by alien
enemies from without.
1t is being assailed by alien
ideologies from within.
To preserve il we must fight
and win both on the home front
as well as on the battle front.
Our fighting men are carrying
the war to- the enemy. We at
home by united effort and
with every sacrifice must fur
nish TO them the war material
with which to defeat them.
But just as imperative is our
duty to destroy and wipe from
our midst any and all foreign
and alien ideologies that are
threatening our system of gov
eminent from within. Lincoln
faced and fought and destroyed
them in his time. We must dc
the same.
IT is about these false ideolo-
Il gies that 1 want 10 talk to
you today. lest in our war effort
and in the concentration of all
of our energies TO win the war
we fail TO note and guard against
these I'm American activities
that are striking at the funda-
mentals of American life.
Our obligation is to preserve
at home our fundamental Amer
lea and the framework of our
American way of life.
Lincoln once said that graft
tude to our forefathers, justice
TO ourselves and duty to our
posterity require us TO faithfully
perform this obligation"
Lincoln had no fear that a
foreign power or a combination
of foreign powers could ever
destroy America, but he warned
against the insidious encroach-
ments OF un-American ideals
from within.
He said, IF danger ever
reaches us, Il must spring up
amongst us. 1t cannot come from
abroad. If destruction be our
lot. we must ourselves be its
author and finisher. AS nation
of free men we must live through
all time. or die by suicide"
We see evidence on every
hand of people in America who
have sold themselves on the
theory of some other form OF
government.
They have done it because
either they have failed TO gain
recognition under the tested and
fair system of free enterprise
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1943-02-14

and private initiative. or because
in their distorted minds they
have a natural affinity to for
eign ismS.
ME must realize that under
w the pressure of war more
than ever before eternal vigil
lance is the price of liberty.
America must pay the price
of vigilantly safeguarding its
fundamental principles, safe
guarding them even in the midst
of war lest we face the fore
closure and the loss of our
freedom.
Soon our men who are now
fighting, bleeding and dying, will
have successfully defended the
right to live and prosper i'm the
land for which they fought.
What will be their wishes?
Ask the soldiers, the sailors or
the marines. Ask them in the
canteens or on the streets. or
ask their parents who know
their innermost thoughts.
Have they gone forth to battle
in disgust in order TO conquer a
new land in which TO live
In their full young manhood
are they suffering because some
where else many thousand miles
away some. other people are be-
ing oppressed?
Have they become fed up with
the ideals of a free America un-
der the Constitution
A RE they bored with the
"A stories of how their fathers
wrested their lands from the
wilderness and defended il with
their lives?
Do not the pictures of Wash
ington and Lincoln hanging on
the walls of their homes and
schoolhouses still inspire them
Or. upon the other hand, have
they, too, listened TO the chant
of the medicine men of our tribe
who have now become enamored
with the idea of remaking the
entire world?
No one who has trod the
country road, or walked the
streets of a small town, or
shared the community life of a
typical American city can harbor
a doubt as to what our fighting
men are thinking, what they are
wishing for and what they are
fighting for.
They are fighting to protect
their homeland.
They are not fighting to re-
model it for the special benefit
of the bureaucrats. They will
come home thoroughly detesting
the fungus growth of bureau
cracy which has attached itself
to the living plant of the Ameri-
can government.
They will come home thor
oughly despising the super gov
ernmentS of labor or of capital
or of agriculture or of any other
bloc of the people that have
sought TO dominate by sheer
power of pressure politics this
American government for which
they have fought.
They will give no heed to the
Vaccinations of the medicine
men nor the social witch doc
tors who think they have dis
covered a new balm with which
to drive the evil spirits from all
OF the corners of the earth.
THESE men will come home
Il more thoroughly funda-
mental in their Americanism
than ever before.
They will come home realizing
that this America OF theirs was
worth fighting for, but they will
also come home with a thorough
determination and resolve to
cast out of the temples of free
dom the Pharisees that have
sought 10 implant their insidi-
Gus doctrines Of un-American
ideals.
And when they do come back.
they will find large segments of
real honest to- God rugged
minded, liberty-loving Ameri-

Free Enterprise

Assuming the status of an In
dustry at the end OF the first
World War, when increasingly
fierce competition between auto
mobile manufacturers forced an
nual model changes beyond the
tooling capacity of the automobile
companies, the tool and die shops
in the second World War have
met not only the tremendous tool
ing requirements of the automo-
tive industry but also have been
called upon to supply other in
dustries. notably aircraft. with
jigs, fixtures. dies and gauges.
APPLY described as indie
pendent shops these (tool and

to the traditional independence
Of the American craftsman--and
