CONFIDENTIAL
SU - 11th Draft
1/22/71
- 17 -
The time has come to match our structure to our purposes - - to
look with a fresh eye, and to organize the government by conscious,
comprehensive design to meet the new needs of a new era.
One hundred years ago, Abraham Lincoln stood on a battlefield
and spoke of a government of the people, by the people and for the
people. Too often since then, we have become a nation of the Govern-
ment, by the Government, and for the Government.
By enacting these reforms, we can renew that principle that
Lincoln stated SO simply and SO well.
By giving everyone's voice a chance to be heard, we will have
government that truly is of the people.
By creating more centers of meaningful power, more places
where decisions that really count can be made, by giving more people
a chance to do something, we can have government that truly is by the
people.
And by replacing our obsolete Federal machinery with a new,
modern, functional design, we in Washington will at last be able to
provide government that truly is for the people.
