son to feel deep sense of pride in
our friendship.
The memory of those days of
struggle and sacrifice together will
always be a sacred bond between us.
But today, the problems of peace
still lie ahead of us. They are more
difficult than we could have an
ticipated. They will require the
closest collabora ton between us.
But I am confident that we can
solve them with mutual good will
and forbearance.
Common Ideals Essential.
The one essential is that we main
tain our common ideals and our
common principles of morality and
justice.
With these to guide us We can go
forward together, and we shall not
permit any minor differences to
divert us from the pursuit of our
common objectives.
We are in a period in which Brazil
and the United States must con-
tinue to cooperate with their sister
nations of the Western Hemisphere
in the development of strong and
concerted force for the good OF man
kind. One of the great lessons we
have learned in recent generations
is that we do not dwell alone. De-
struction, suffering and confusion
in other parts of the world confront
us now as never before. Our nations
made great sacrifices throughout
the war, but we have been spared
the wanton destruction and disloca-
ton suffered by many.
I am confident that Brazil and the
United States will be faithful to a
great trust on which depend the
lives and liberty of so many millions
of disillusioned and discouraged
people.
The people OF the United States
followed with keen interest and high
hopes the progress of the Inter-
American Conference which has just
ended. The splendid result attained
brings to us sense of deep salts
| faction.
Conference Hailed as Milestone.
We in this hemisphere have dem
onstrated to the world that right
thinking men can submerge their
individual prejudices and their in
dividual aims in the accomplishment
of an agreement that will bring
great benefit to the world.
The conference of Rio de Janeiro
will 60 down in history as a tremen-
dously important milestone In our
progress toward the outlawing of
force in international relations and
the establishment of the rule of law
and order.
In some quarters today one hears
expressions of disappointment in the
accomplishments thus far of the
United Nations. This must not deter
us in our constant effort to build
the organization that the world
needs SO badly.
Furthermore, we must keep ever
in mind that the United Nations was
not intended to settle the problems
arising Immediately out of the war,
but to provide the means for main
tanning international peace after
just settlements have been made
The United Nations was not born
fully developed by the signing of its
charter in San Francisco. 1t will
take steadfastness of purpose, unre-
mitting toll and infinite patience to
achieve our goal.
u. N. Permanent Partnership.
The United Nations is not a tenn
porary expedient. 1t Is a perma-
nent partnership "A partnership
among the peoples of the world for
their common peace and common
we'll being.
The difficulties that we have en-
countered in this early phase in the
life of the United Nations have not
discouraged US.
! On the contrary, they have In
creased our determination that it
shall succeed.
| The United States is resolved to
support the United Nations with all
the resources at our command.
Brazil and the United States have
advanced side by side in developing
progressive concepts of the demo-
cratic way of lige. We have proved
to ourselves that policies founded
firmly on belief in the dignity of
man and his possession of certain
inalienable rights inspire us to
greater endeavor and lead us to new
heights of achievement.

viction that here f1ourishes a people
dedicated to the firm ideals upon
which my countrymen and I were
nurtured.
Appreciates Cordial Reception.
It Is difficult for me to tell you
how. deeply I appreciate the Won
derful reception I have been ac-
corded in your country.
Because this Congress consists of
the chosen representatives Of the
PCORlC diAo bCIduoC yoa hlCll,
through the operation of the demo-
cratic process, are so closely iden-
titled with the people, I wish to ex-
press my heartfelt thanks, through
you. to all the people of Brazil.
AS I passed through your beauti-
full capital city on the day of my
arrival, the warm expressions of
friendship on the faces of hundreds
of thousands of your people deeply
moved me and left me with an i'm
preston I shall never forget.
When the time comes for me to
depart shall carry away in my
heart strengthened confidence in
the enduring friendship of our two
countries and in the goodness and
generosity of the people of Brazil.
