- 8 - In the final analysis, laws, though undoubtedly useful and important, can perform only the limited function of restraining certain types of overt action. The ultimate goal, unattainable by compulsion of law, is the ability of all men to live together in genuine fellowship, each carrying in his own heart that inward spiritual conviction that it is just, it is proper, it is good that we should enjoy the unqualified self-esteem and respect of each other. We in the Virgin Islands like to believe that our racial harmony stems ultimately from such resources and values of the spirit and mind. I pass the thought to you, my fellow-Governors, in the hope that among the people of your own states the same sense of genuine democracy can and shall prevail. I thank you.
