On the recordJuly 7, 1959
We in West Virginia have as our motto, "Mountaineers are always free." Dear as it is to us, we realize that the sentiment is one we share happily with all our fellow Americans. But I fear that these words, "always free," may be resounding somewhat hollowly in the mountains of my home State, and in many other parts of our great country, for a number of our older citizens.
