Franklin Delano Roosevelt

Today we mark the anniversary of the death of the man whose humanity was the greatest moral inspiration to the peoples and statesmen of the world. When men in these days attempt to solve the problems, within or between nations, that have risen out of the past war, they are judged by the standards Franklin Delano Roosevelt set for himself and his associates. He was the proof in our time that noble ideals need not be ground under in the grim, practical struggle for life.
