STATEMENT BY THE PRESIDENT
To all my fellow citizens of the Jewish faith
I extend hearty greetings and good wishes on their New Year's
Day.
Its celebration this year comes at a time when the
United States and its allies are seeking to lay the foundation
of lasting peace in the world. This task cannot be completed
unless all persons, without distinction of race, language or
religion, are made secure in the enjoyment of their inherent
human rights. To this end, the treaties of peace now being
discussed bind the nations who warred against human freedom
to guarantee to all their peoples freedom of opinion, freedom
of expression, freedom of assembly and freedom of worship.
These freedoms are the heritage of centuries of
civilization. All of us share the responsibility for seeing
that they are extended to all mankind.
