The night after election a great are ^ toUow8:
meeting was held in Carnegie,
Hall in New York, not to celebrate 201 1^0—Tomel Middleton, R. F.
a victory or mourn a defeat but
to bury the hatchet. Men and
women of all political beliefs, of 202
all racial origins, all creeds and
faiths, spoke the same language.
The keynote was the one word:
"Unity.” \
Nothing could better express
the spirit of democracy than this
determination to stand united as
a people behind the leaders of the
people’s choice, after the most
bitter ^md hard-fought Presiden
tial election of many years. In
the campaign every animosity of
group against group, class against
class, race against race, creed a-
gainst creed, was brought out into
the open and used by one side or
the other to further its ends. All
of the fears, the hatreds, the sus
picions and the distrusts felt by
any Americans against other
Americans were thoroughly aired.
Now, having got all those things
off our chests, it is time to forget
them, at least until the next elec
tion, and to get together as Amer
icans, to make it our business, the
business of every one of us, to
revivify the true spirit of America
and to keep it alive in a world
where everything America stands
for seems to be threatened.
Nothing would make the ene
mies of human liberty happier
than to see Americans divided a-
mong themselves. Nothing could
; endanger our national safety
more than to keep alive or t ag-

gravate the antagonisms which 218 942—Earnest Smith, Parks-
showed themselves in the recent
campaign. We have a big job a-
head of us, a job in which all
must do their part and none must-
be permitted to hinder. That is
the job of building our national
defenses to the point where we
can be perfectly sure that no pos
sible attack from outside our
shores can be effective.
Only by so safeguarding our
physical boundaries can we be
sure of keeping alhte the spiritual
heritage which is the real Amer
ica. If proof were needed that
the'American people are united in
that objective, it is provided by
the fact that there was no issue
as between parties or candidates
on that question. All were agreed
that the first need of the nation
is to speed up work on our de
fenses; and give all possible help
to \the few remaining democracies
overseas who are fighting for the
same objectives that we of Ameri
ca must preserve.
So let us bury the hatchet and
pull together to prove that democ
racy is not an outworn, but a liv
ing, vital force, the greatest force
in the world today.
