John Fostur Dulles, Secretary
of State, was a guest of honor.
Garcia praised Dulles, not only
because this noble and generous
nation was the seat of the first
conference washington 1900 but
for the constant support that the
U. S. government has given and
continues to give to the Organiza-
ton of American States.
"We recall with respect and
generation the ideas expressed by
Henry Clay when, in a address
delivered in the House of Repre-

ker, he recommended, four years
prior to the Congress of Panama,
the establishment of an American
league for human liberty, which
should unite all nations, from

Communist Threat to Human Freedom
Stressed During Pan American Day"
0AS IS a League for Human Liberty
Council President Garcia Declares

''Time has proved the eminent
statesman to have been right, be-
cause the Organization of Ameri-
can States today is, b~asically and
in essence. an American league
for human liberty.
Liberty goes hand in hand with
security: where there is liberty
there is security; where there is
security, there is liberty. Security
is acquired by unceasing, patient,
and honorable work. Liberty is
won by courage, decision, and
firmness. Liberty and security r
the product of constant effort, in
dividual and collective, following
no single pattern and designed to
create felicity, the supreme goal
of mankind.
The GAS studies economic, So
cial, political, and cultural pro-
blems and, as far as its available
means will allow, is gradually find
ing appropriate solutions to those
problems. We are not entirely sa-
tisfied with the results We have
obtained, but we are satisfied with
our efforts and our conduct as we
overcome, little by little, the great
difficulties that arise.
It is not a task for a day, nor
for a year. 1t is a task that will
be before us indefinitely, one that
extends, in space and in time and
therefore requires devotion, study,
good will, and a clear vision OF
the needs and the future Of
America.
On this Pan American Day, we
fervently hope that liberty and Sc
curity will shine from a cloudless
sky over the Americas; that e.
preventative democracy will, in an
atmosphere of general we'll being,
be the common denomination of the
American peoples; and that the
Omnipotente will shed His light
upon us and enable us to accom-
plish our task with honor.
