11. .A .!46L:S - - Who Are You? I am the Voice of Democracy. You know me, American Youth. You've lived with me all your life. Do You See The Garden? I see the garden, Youth, and perhaps more of it than you see. Thats because I'm older, and I see the shadows as well as the sun- shine. Yes, I see the garden. Do You Like The Garden? I like your plot, Youth. It is hardy and per- ennial. It will live forever. But, see across the pond. Those plots are shadowed by the towering, gnarled trees of oppression. Why Are The Trees There? Because the gardens were neglected, and youth grew there without enough sunshine. The soil was of darkness and defeat. Then, when the seeds took root, there was naught to guide them. What Are Their Branches? Oh, some are called hate, some greed, some madness. Others are of the species known as conquest, purge, protection They all flourish in the dark of ignorance. emocracgg ,X rwwerzi What Must Be Done To The Garden? The garden must be re-sowed, Youth. It will take great sacrifice to do your mission. Over and over again in times before, we have weeded the evils from the garden, only to have them come back again. You, sturdy seedlings, are too young to recall other great victories. ' nal. X I -'.ii ft Why Must We Weed?

Even l, your fairest flower, was threatened once upon a time, not so long ago. The aggressors will over- run your plot and choke out your borders if you do not weed. But Your mission must be eter' ' x How Can We Re-Sow? lt will take time and patience and persever- ance. It will be hard and long work. But it will be joyous to re-sow the garden with the good. Let us sow service to our nation, faith in our ideals, and courage for ourselves. What Will Come Of It? Your garden will become more spacious with the extending boundaries, and when the weeds of slavery and oppression are torn out by the roots, you will have freed l I the garden from evil for evermore, and then ' A- you will have a peace, not for ten or twenty 47 g ,, 0' years, but for all time. And I will help you ff 1 .... , . I You must have faith in me, Youth, for I am 'I the Voice of Democracy. 3 if ,Q-c k V, , QQ i - fb X.
