AMERICANS ARE BORN RICH
Americans are born with a wealth that money
can't buy. No matter whether we are reared in
mansions or log cabins, we inherit man's greatest
treasure — the silver spoon of freedom!
Freedom is everywhere in America. Poor youngsters can and do become rich and famous men.
Folks speak the truth as they see it because opinion
is molded by the public rather than by politicians.
Freedom of worship and freedom from fear are accepted as a matter of course in a country bossed by
the people.
Unfortunately, freedom isn't free. General
Washington and his men made the down-payment
at Valley Forge and Yorktown. For almost two
hundred years, brave men have met the installments with sweat and blood. But keeping our land
free is no task for heroes alone — "Freedom is
everybody's job!"
You strengthen America and make it more productive by mastering your job and giving a few
extra licks to your daily tasks. You show your faith
in the American way when you take time to vote in
local as well as national elections. You make democracy work when you respect your neighbor's
right not only to disagree with you, but to have his
say.
Don't be content with flying the colors on Flag
Day and parading on the Fourth of July — help to
.make our democracy a living, working reality 365
days of the year. We have inherited priceless freedom; as long as we keep it, the poorest of us is rich!
