Vox Flumznzs 1 1 .Un illllvmurinm illranklin Briana ilnnarnvlt Birh April 12111, 1545 A MAN,- GREAT IN SPIRIT, IN MIND AND IN HEART. President Roosevelt is dead. With these few, simple words the stunned world died too, for a moment, and all hope of victory and peace, the everlasting kind of peace he gave his life for, seemed doomed. We felt we had lost not only one of the greatest men the world has known, ibut even above that, that we had lost a very human, sincere, personal friend, my father as Walt Whitman had said. He was the living symbol of courage, courage beyond all doubt, courage even beyond all understanding. He knew what his ideals were, and he did not stray from the path of those ideals even when faced by many hating and bitter enemies. He .brought America from the grip of depression, and the confused, despairing country she was in 1933, to the great in- dustrial country she is now, and he showed her how to shoulder world responsibilitiesg yet while doing so he held her together. He could notl walk, he could not even stand for long periods, yet how much more courage he ha-d, and how much more he accomplished in his lifetime than do scores of men who are able to both walk and stand. Even in this war's darkest hours the crippled figure never lost his nerve, but strove on and on to bring America to greater heights, and to master his nation as he had mastered himself. Roosevelt was also essentially a great humanist. There are few men today, even the most common men, who are not felt by some to be superior. But here was a man, a great leader of great people, who made even the most humble feel like men beside him. The dead presidents political genius was taken for granted by far too many of us, as well as Americans. Had it not been for his insight and determination to fight in spite of much opposition of some of his people, the United States would have had no implements of war made when Pearl Harbour came, and we would not .be within sight of victory now. We all looked up in faith, hope and trust to President Roosevelt. and now Americans and we too will have to take more responsibility. We will have to stand on our feet, and watch more closely all events that directly or indirectly affect us, more than ever before. Roosevelt was a man of great strength that outlives any bodily strength. Part of his greatness lies in the fact he was able to give his strength to others, and they were able to sense his great power and still not feel inferior to him. He can never be replaced, but there is no turning back, and his work must and will go on. It is our task to see that it is done and done as he would wish. President Roosevelt is dead, but President Roosevelt did live. Thank God. JANE BULL
