Q.—What is the “American’s Creed?”
—Ted L.
A.—The American’s Creed was writ­
ten by William Tyler Page in 1918 and
has been accepted as the best state­
ment of American political principles.
It was selected from among thousands
of offerings submitted in a contest for
a prize of $1000, offered by the City of
Baltimore for a Creed containing less
than one hundred words. It follows:
“I believe in the United States of
America as a government of the people,
by the people, for the people; whose
just powers are derived from the consent
of the governed; a democracy in a
republic; a sovereign nation, one and
inseparable; established upon those
principles of freedom, equality, justice
and humanity for which American patri­
ots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.
“I therefore believe it is my duty
to my country to love it; to support its
Constitution; to obey its laws; to respect
its flag; and to defend it against all
enemies.”
It’s a sound little confession of love
for the country of adoption. We’d do
well in repeating it often.
