Labor Day symbolizes our determination to achieve an economic freedom for the average man which will give his political freedom realty.

Liberty requires opportunity to make a living--a living decent according to the standard of the time, a living which gives a man not only enough to live by, but something to live for.

It is a good thing to demand liberty for ourselves and for those who agree with us, but it is a better thing and a rarer thing to give liberty to others who do not agree with us.

In the truest sense, freedom cannot be bestowed; it must be achieved.
