Now it is up to us at home to prove worthy of them.

We should grant the responsibility for handling such matters to those equipped with year-around facilities and time to dispose of them.

There is little hope for success in this task unless it is placed in the hands of some one responsible for it, with authority and direction to act.

The first and fundamental obligation of a government is towards its own nationals.

Our first duty as a nation is to put our governmental house in order-national, State, and local.

The maintenance of our American system of individual initiative and individual and community responsibility in all these various problems.

My conception of my responsibilities does not, however, permit of my placing the appointment of judges on this basis.

There can be no higher duty.

The entrance of new citizens upon the full measure of the responsibilities of their new allegiance to our American ideals of law and custom is always a most appealing occasion.

It appears to expect me to perform two separate duties, which occasionally in some degree seem to conflict.

Responsibility without authority would be unthinkable.

There is always a little danger that those who are entrusted with the great responsibilities of business and Government may come to forget about those things and disregard them.

On each one of us rests a moral obligation to do our share of the world's work.

But the responsibility for legislation is theirs.

Do the day's work.

candor and a sense of duty with regard to the responsibility so clearly imposed upon me by the Constitution in matters of legislation leave me no choice but to dissent.

I am very sure that the Speaker of the House...is charged with a deep responsibility in regard to this great question.

His presence on the boat was in the line of duty, but he had no charge of the rest of the men.
