He did not believe that . thrc strength of the United Stutes was solely in its navy, army and air forces but also 4n?the spirit of. n free, healthy and intelligent people. The life of the nation coulr :? ?not - be- -forever stimulated?solely by slogans of confidence. Hungry humanity could not be fed with ,,j promises.
