GOVERNOR MONO WALLGREN YOU who are about to enter into the business of living, of taking your part in all its phases, personal and civic responsibilities, will have already considered the many problems which you will, in compony with the vast number of your generation, decide. You will recognize that there are no cheap and easy U topias to be had for the resolving. You will not keep your eyes on utopias but on the area of social possibilities — the America that can be. That is the realm that opens up for us, expanded almost illimitably by the new reaches of technological advance and the productivity of a man ' s work when applied to his knowledge of nature. You will take part in the tremendous task of the transition from a war economy to a peace economy. You will not be dismayed by its complexities. You will have faith that the common sense and the energy which have enabled the American people to overcome the problems of the past will again grasp and solve the problems, and prepare the way to a better American life. You will be among the leaders who will bring this hope to fruition. We have in our own soil and on our own continent all the resources for feeding our psople. We have and will have among our own population tho managerial ability and the technical and workers ' skills for runn ' ng the machines. We have in our own government the social techniques of control and planning that are needed to organ ' ze our resources and skills. We have wondered whether economic security can itself create freedom, whether economic abundonce necessarily leads to a democratic society. The answer is that while decent living standards ore no guarantee of freedom, they are a condition of freedom. The problems of creating a healthy economy are inseparable from the problems of creating a good society. It will be your task and your privilege to help to build and mointain a peace economy which will make possible full and fair distribution of our resoruces and our production. A decent social structure will surely follow. MON C. WALLGREN GOVERNOR 24
