I believe in the brotherhood of man. for all men are sons of God. I believe that ail nations and all people have equal rights before God ami man. I believe that patriotism is a national virtue to be respected and practiced b\ every America'!. I believe that when love and justice fail to protect those natural right of man. we must fight to defend them. 1 believe in the sanctity of the home and the family; and that all forms of dictatorship which usurp the rights of individuals must be destroyed. I believe that the peace plan coming out of this war may not be dictated by panzer polities or nationalistic selfishness but must be born of a new realization of man’s right to work and worship as he wills.
