FDR: “The victory of the American people and their allies in this war will be a victory for democracy.”

We are absolutely un changed in our policy of two years ago, for immediate Filipino independence.

The coming victory of the United Nations means that they, and not their enemies, have power to establish the foundations of the future.

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

We must go on to do all in our power to conquer the doubts and the fears, the ignorance and the greed, which made this horror possible.
