It is not a struggle merely of economic theories, or forms of government or of military power. At issue is the true nature of man. Either man is the creature whom the psalmist described as a little lower than the angels . . . or man is a soulless, animated machine to be enslaved, used and consumed by the state for its own glorification. It is, therefore, a struggle which goes to the roots of the human spirit, and its shadow falls across the long sweep of man's destiny.

The hope of freedom depends in real measure upon our strength, our heart, and our wisdom. We must be strong in arms. We must be strong in the source of all our armament - our productivity. We all - workers and farmers, foremen and financiers, technicians and builders - all must produce, produce more and produce yet more. We must be strong, above all, in the spiritual resources upon which all else depends. We must be devoted with all our heart to the values we defend. We must know that each of these values and virutes applies with equal force at the ends of the earth and in our relations with our neighbor next door.
