Finding it necessary to live together
bv the millions. we created ourselves
governing system covering vast geo.
graphical spaces. Now we actually
have the thrilling and terrific idea of
a world government, global govern
ment to bring justice to white and
black, to Eskimo and Afrikander, rich
and poor, not because any tribe is pow
erful and can exact justice, but be-
cause we have conceived and created
the ideal of justice and plan it for all
men. This is great. This is not the act
of little animal, or mean animal.
This is possible only to great animal.
We think in global terms. We inhabit
a star, and we know it.
Finding that we have to work to
stay alive, we work with ability be-
yond imagining.
Out of the earth we take food, and
improve that food year by year; we
take heat, and light, so that darkness
which lay upon the face of the earth is
dispelled by man-made light. We enjoy
all the myriad products of our unpar-
alleled ingenuity.
Every morning the necessity for the
days work faces us. And we go and do
a days work, with an overall average
effectiveness and perseverance that is
amazing, considering many of the jobs.
Of persistence, daring and ingen-
uity impossible to surpass, we find
ways to move easily under the water
and through the air. Now we specula-
lively eye our neighboring planets. 1t
should astound no one if man one day
begins to move among these planets.
How shall I not admire such a crea-
ture?
Daunted by nothing, his horizons
constantly recede, the territories of his
possession and use expand and expand.
Whenever he comes to an impossible
obstacle, an apparently final barrier,
he goes to work at it and, in due time,
surpasses it. If he has limits, I do not
see where they are. do not think he
has limits. I think he is child of the
universe who inherits eternity. 1 think
he is wonderful, am his devoted parti-
san, and 1 am pround indeed to be one
of him.

/ admire the human race. l do, in
deed. Everybody is busy running us
down, these days, for the mess they say
we have made here and there and ev-
erywhere. Pshaw! That's short-range
stuff, a worm's-eye view of our world.
Over the marching and abundant CEN
turies, we haven't made any mess. Far
from it!
We have done and are doing better
Job than anyone has any right to ex-
pect. We're all rig ht!
From the beginning, we found our
selves alone in vast universe, and not
only alone but the only thing on this
planet which could realize its lone
ness. We realized it, gave it good close
look, and then turned our attention to
making something practical and useful
out of an unprecedented situation.
First of all, we found ourselves
Light, God, and we got sense of di-
rection, a goal to work toward. This
was pretty clever of us, if you think
of it carefully.
We proceeded to set up standards
for our living together. Early in our
experience we made the revolutionary
discovery that gentleness and kindG-
ness were more practical than brute
strength. No other species has ever
found that out and used it as model
and practical code of conduct.
We have in actual fact no one we
need answer to, beyond ourselves, and
vet we observe our ideal standards in
remarkable degree. We are honest and
trustworthy one with another so that
it is the exception, it is news, when we
commit a theft. We are decent SO per
cent of the time, when we could easily
be vile.
With silence and mystery behind us
and ahead of us, we make up gay little
songs and whistle them, and our feet
keep Jig time to them. We look life
and fate in the eye, and smile. like
that, and admire the people who do it.
Alone among all living things, we
have discovered Beauty, and we cher
ish it, and create it for eye and ear.
Alone among living things, we have the
power to look at our environment and
criticize it and improve it.
