now) on slavery, we can comment on tyranny.
And when one particular form of slavery, auch na flourishes in a Totall- tacion State, is not only an indecency In itself, but a menace to the rest of the world, then it is our duty to com- ! ment.
To-day we are trying to pull đówn one autocracy by force. It should be our peace-alin to undermine all auto- eracy by example..
Let it be our purpose to show that peoples of differing race can live happily together, amicably together, prosperously together; k a happiness; a friendship and a prosperity which can only be achieved by, and is only available to, democratie countries.
