An American cemetery somewhere in EuroPe-fhled
with Crosses and Stars of Davis. In the foreground, the
grave of an American soldier. What was his name!
Adams? Kelly? Cohen?
Certainly his face didn't look like much when they found
him. But his .'dog tag told who he was.
He was NOT an Unknown Soldier. And does it matter
whether he was Protestant, Catholic, or Jewish!
He fought American. He died American. He WAS
American.
He makes YOU prouder that you are American.
But what Of his brOthers-by the million-here at home
of every blood, of every color, of every creed!
Are they different because they re alive!
Is the only true democracy in uniformed death!
On this Memorial Day let us put a stop to the prejudice
and hate-mongering-the whispering and rumor-spreading
which can only divide ard weaken America by setting race
against race, religion against religion, class against class.
Let us unity America-make America strongly respect
ing our ~neighbors, by defending their rights, by obeying
the biblical law of love.
Let us honor our heroic dead by living for the principles
for which they died.

speaking, acting, with racial or religious prejudice-STOP
