FDR: “International peace and well-being can be secured only through institutions capable of life and growth.”

We seek peace—enduring peace.

All sections of our population—labor, farmers, businessmen have shared and will share in the benefits which increased trade brings.

The logic of events and our clear and pressing national interest must override our old party controversies.

I recommend that the Congress authorize the acceptance of the Constitution and the participation of the United States in the work of the Food and Agriculture Organization.
