CLASSES In a truly great democracy, people are not classified according to their he- reditary status, but with regard to what they can contribute to the wel- fare of the nation as a whole. America, more than any other country, is a melting pot of nationalities and races. The Negro, the Japanese, the Chinese, the Latin, the Nordic, the Anglo- Saxon, and countless other races live together peacefully, each serving the common good to the best of his abil- ity. The farmer, guiding his plow, gives us our daily bread; the laborer, work- ing with his hands does the creative tasks that no machine can. do; the businessman, controlling large con- cerns and enterprises, insures our fi- nancial independence; the scientist, constantly increases our free knowl- edge of the world in which we live; the clergyman guiding our spiritual wel- ‘fare, makes life more tolerant: and the soldier, disregarding his personal comfort and safety, is ever ready to defend his glorious nation against ag- gressors. These men and women . Americans all . . . regardless of race, religion, or creed, have dedicated their lives to the American ideal, and work continually to make the United States the greatest nation on earth.
