"Lately there has been a clear challenge in various parts of the world to the democratic idea of representative government.
"The challengers whether they be called communistle, dictator- lal or military, laugh at constitu 'tions, predict copying of their own methods and prophecy the early end of democracy throughout the world.
GROWING MENACE"
"Both that attitude and predic- who tion are, denied by those still believe in democracy," sald' the President, "and democracy is represented by an overwhelming majority of the nations DI the world.
"That dealal is based on the fact that modern men and women will not tamely submit to one man or one group, and eventually will insist on the right to choose who should govern.
"The state of world affairs brought about by these few forms of government threatens civilisa- tion.
"Armaments and deficits have piled up, trade barriers have mul- tiplied and merchant ships threa- tened on the high seas.
