I speak of the men of the past partly that they may be honored by our praise of them, but more that they may serve as examples for the future.
I want every labor man, every labor leader, every organized union man, to take the lead in denouncing crime or violence.
the fate of the leader for the time being is of little consequence, but the cause itself must in the end triumph, for its triumph is essential to the well-being of the American people.
