Americans should resolve to hold high the torch of freedom in this darkening world so that our children and their children may not be robbed of their rightful inheritance."

In his speech he makes the following remarks, 'American must head in the direction of a greater satisfaction in life for the average man. Democracy must find solutions for far-reaching problems. Millions of Americans in slums and small cities live in habitations which fail to provide benefits of modern civilization breed disease and impair the health of future generations. Tenant farmers could be provided with some financial assistance, advice and training, to make them self-supporting on land which can eventually belong to them. Social security system needs to be developed. Immediate industrial and commercial activity does not justify the unemployment problem'.
