Unity And Strength
A father in one of Aesop's fables wished to
prove to his sons that unity is strength. He ask-
ed each of them to break a single stick, which
they did with ease. However, when he gathered
several sticks into a bundle, none of the sons
could break it.
The same principle of united strength applies
to our country's progress and prosperity. As
long as separate groups such as business, labor
and government stand alone; the structure is
weak.
, But when all groups decide to go ahead toge
tHer, nothing in the world can stop us.

"In such an atmosphere as this, 1
think we find the real soul and per*
... . sonallty of America. From such hum*
dared Roy. Millet. oldug® editor ox ~bie surroundings as these, typified by
Texas, in speaking recently at a gath- the lowly log cabins where John Gar-
ering of old friends and neighbors of
John Nance Gamer, vice president, in
the little village of Detroit, Texas,,
where the distinguished Texan was
born n&rly sixty-nine years ago.
There is no substitute, either in
public or private life, for experience,
and experience, of course, comes only
with years. As a matter of fact, the
only thing that is old about John
Nance Garner is some of his political
philosophy. He still believes In the
old-fashioned virtues of economy.
thrift and self-reliance. In other
words, he believes in the old-fash-
ioned. fundamental principles of de-
mocracy, and no man in America, in
both his public and private life, exem-
plifies those principles to such a de-
gree as does this; great man.
"While achieving high place politi-
cally. he has made substantial success
of his private life, and it is his proud
boast that he owes no human being a
thin dime. He believes In the pay-
as-you-go system, and what a blessing
it would be if that system could be
applied to America today.
"Lest J be misunderstood. let me
say here, with all of the emphasis I
pan command, that John Garner is no
reactionary in his political philosphy
Indeed, he is not even a conservative,
if the term be applied with the mean-
ing with which i*. was clothed tn years
gone by
' "John.Garner is a liberal and a great
liberal. He was a liberal Democrat
practicing'liberalism many years be-
fore some of the most vocal present-
day sponsors of liberalism were even
born. But there is no tinge or taint of
radicalism in the liberalism of John
Garner. His liberalism is that which
would guarantee to every American
citizen the right and opportunity to
work out his or her salvation with the
least possible Interference upon the
part of the Government. Therefore, he
believes in all necessary legislation
and regulation to protect the weak
against the strong, the -poor against
the ~ich. the owner of property against
those who would destroy the owner-
ship of property; in short, equality of
opportunity for every American citi-
zen. He believes in Democracy and
prefers to be known as a Democrat
in the old-fashioned interpretation of
ner and his sainted mother were born,
have come the truly great in
America's glorious history. They
knew, as be knows, what America is,'
what America stands 'or, and how
and why our American system of gov-
ernment was conceived. They knew,
as he knows, what it means to toll
and strive and work. They knew, as
he knows, that there is no substitute
for self-reliance and individual initia-
tive, and that any system of govern-
ment which takes from the individual
these fundamental tenets of liberty
cannot long endure as a democracy ol
freemen. They knew, as he knows, that
for men to be free they must be guar-
anteed only freedom of opportunity
to work out their own destinies, and
that the highest purpose and duty of
government in a democracy is to as-
sure to every citizen an equal chance
with his neighbor. This is the essence
of John Garner's political philosophy.
"1 have no patience with those who
would seek to analyze the percentage
of one's Americanism. It is not a di-
visible thfng. It is not something that
can be broken up into parts and ap-
praised in its constituent elements
Either one is an American or he Is
not NevfttthftleiS. I cannot help but
feel that there never was a time in the
history of our beloved country when
the need for the leadership of those
whose Americanism is beyond all per-
adventure of doubt was so essentially
and vitally necessary to the preserva-
tion of America and American insti-
tutions as it is at the present moment.
"Here in Red River County, where
John Garner's widowed grandmother
with her six fatherless childrer cam^
£rom Tennessee almost a ~fnnrdml
years ago. built yonder 'og cabin, and
joined the ranks of valiairt^pioneers
who blazed a trail for civilization and
laid deep and broad the firm founda-
tions of Imperial Texas, may we find,
indeed,, the soil from which true
Americanism Is generated and born
Here in this community, plain, home-
like. typically American, is the birth-
place ol a great American who, in my
humble opinion, has been marked by
the hand of destiny to become the
President of the greatest, richest, and
most powerful nation of all time, the
United States of America."
