America Is
Profoundly
Grateful
So Says President
Truman For The
Blessings Bestowed
Upon Us This Day

NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-lR.-This
is our completely American holi-
day complete with Presidential
proclamation.
I'VE are profoundly grateful, :
says the President, for the bless
ings bestowed upon us.
He goes on to link our own we'll
being with that of the rest of the
world in the struggle for freedom.
This link to the rest of the world is
the distinguished feature of the
1851 proclamation,
But the holiday remains strictly
American of itself. And the Presi.
Dental proclamation wisely falls
back on the old testament for its
expression. Give thanks unto the
Lord, for He is good: His mercy
endureth forever
We are, you see, the only people
who earmark special day to
credit divine intervention for our
present blessings and indeed, our
existence. Nowhere else does the
chief of state issue such a procla.
nation.
Now therefore, |, Harry S
Truman, President of the United
States of America, according tC
our treasured tradition, and ir
conformity with the joint resolu
tion of Congress approved on De
cember Goth, 1871. designating the
fourth Thursday of November il
each year as Thanksgiving Day
do hereby proclaim Thursday. No
vemher 22nd. 1851, as a day o.
National Thanksgiving
The Europeans are little puz
zled by Thanksgiving Day, The
English want to know why VIZ
don't stress the first syllable
thanks givingday, which is wha
| it is. The rest want TO know why
we give thanks all on one day
prayers of gratitude are not neces
sarily annual affairs.
| The answer is of course tradi
tion-it started in 1921 and in 33i
years il has got pretty firm
hold.
But there's more to the answer
than that. An English minor his
| torian once said THE story o
America is the story of a grea
battle. Certainly no nation ha:
ever begun with such a precariou;
foothold in history. From tht
Roanoke Island disaster of the It'll

been a battle.
