TO REMIND YOU OF Free Worship CATHOLIC PROTESTANT Thinking people recognize the value of prayer and the omnipotence of God. Revolts by individuals against God are made only when the value of prayer has been undermined by sentimentality and hypocrisy. In the United States, where citizens have enjoyed the privilege to exercise their free will to worship God as they deem most proper, a devout, intelligent, and sincere religious attitude has been achieved. Let us continue to respect all religions, to recognize the goodness of the ONE GOD, and to understand the value of our freedom of worship. Free Speech Senator Taft. Monsignor Sheen, and Bill Johnson have the opportunity to state their honest convictions and observations publicly and privately. They may laud the Administration’s Foreign Policy or harshly rebuke the President’s support of the Brannan Farm Bill. And there is no police organization to censor or to restrict their speech. Those farmers who, on summer evenings, relax on the porch steps of the country store and informally discuss local and national politics; the lawyer and industrialist who exchange brief remarks about excess profits tax, and the students in the classroom who debate the necessity of Universal Military Training — all are exercising their freedom of speech. They should learn to realize the importance of this freedom and to refrain from abusing it. tour

YOUR FREE AMERICA Free Press The daily papers which Americans receive aid in making them the most enlightened of all people. Events in Washington, in the rest of the nation, and in the world are observed and interpreted for the public. Read thoughtfully, the newspaper is truly “a revelation of the past, a guide for the present, and a clue to the future.” Freedom of the press has given our best citizens the medium to express their ideas and ideals to all Americans. Through the press, a greater understanding between the East, West, North, and South has evolved. We have learned to understand our countrymen by reading of their problems and fortunes—their way of life. A greater unity of the United States of America has resulted from the free press. To keep America united, this freedom to express man’s beliefs and observations must be maintained. CENTUM. Hl PEWOtT Americas economic structure has often been severely criticized; but throughout the history of our nation, most of our people have had the opportunity to work. This opportunity of the individual to work, and through ambition, to rise financially and socially, has given us the highest standard of living in the world. Education has been of inestimable value to all our labors and has made America progress. A most happy feature of our way of life is that — without envy — we recognize the value of the physician, the teacher, the janitor, and the shift worker at the Pitt-Corning. Only through cooperation of all professional men, tradesmen, and laborers has America achieved its wealth and eminence. Opportunity to Work five
