A PERSONAL MESSAGE
from Governor
DEWEY
Two and a half yean ago
we were the moat powerful nation on earth. Today we
appear before Jhe world to weak that dictators feel our
soldiers can be pushed around and shot in the back.
Our national government Is warning us In the gravest
terms of war-like conditions. Strange submarioea are
reported off Alaska, off the Atlantio Coast, and off the
shores of California. The Russians have been threatening
to throw us out or bully us out of Berlin.
Under all these conditions our government should be
doing something to halt the tide. The fact is that our
national administration has made almost every possible
blunder and we ought to get rid of it at the, Erst possible
moment.
Meanwhile there is war talk on every hand. Nothing
eould be so unnecessary or so tragic War Is the last act of
a bankrupt statesmanship. I insist there is absolutely no
reason for the fear of wax If our government will start
waging the peace.
Today there are two great and powerful nations In the
world the United State representing the whole cause of
human freedom and Soviet Russia, representing the
tyranny of the police state. We Americans propose to live
at peace but we haw learned that we must be strong
enough to be respected in order to keep the peace. We
have learned that unless the free world as a whole Is strong
and stands together, the foroaa of dictatorship will sense
weakness and will set out on a war of conquest.
Ia the face of recent ominous events in the "world, h Is
-
y t
af . , f ft-
dear that we must start immediately to build up our mili
tary strength by whatever means are necessary in order to
protect America. Most of all, we must create an air force
which is the most powerful striking force in the world.
But military strength alone is not enough. Armaments
alone can never preserve peace. We are confronted in the
world today, not with the simple threat of military force but
with a challenge that strikes at the heart of our whole way
of life a challenge to our American ideals. We need to
build up our strength but we need also to build up our faith.
There are too many people in this country and in the
world who can see only our little failures, our strikes, our
occasional injustices. I am sick to death of hearing people
sell America short. The time has come for us, as Americans
to re-discover our purpose, our greatness as a nation, our
ideals and our enormous competence. When we have done
that there- la not the slightest doubt that we can and will
win the peace. I say again this is not a war crisis ; it is a
peace crisis, and we must start waging the peace now.
