I would today simply remind all of those who benefit from public programs that every American's constant commitment should be, ought to be, and must be like Dr. Kellogg's, 'To spend our lives in human service.'

For while America has not ceased to be the land of opportunity to succeed, it has also become the land of opportunity to serve.

Tonight we have a revolutionary new program of housing and rent supplements for the needy which is going to bring the whole power of free enterprise to bear on this problem.

I do not believe that we are indifferent to our good fortune.

But to stop aggression is only the beginning, not the end of our policy.

So to Senator Lausche, Congressman Moellet, and the other officials with me, I say to the people of Dayton where we have come from, to the people of Columbus where we are, to the people of Lancaster where we are going, that this has been a…

To the youth of America, I want to say this: 'If you seek to be uncommon, if you seek to make a difference, if you seek to serve, then look around you. Your country needs you. Your Nation needs your services.'

This Nation would far rather use its power to heal humanity than to participate in a struggle.

I just hope that you will leave here today and go out and say: 'What is best for my country is best for me.'

Today, this great Battle Creek Sanitarium is helping to chart the course for the entire Nation and the world in the fight against mental illness.

Now if we here in America, living in luxury, in all of our prosperity and with all of the many things that we have to be thankful for, if we grow tired, if we despair, then much will be lost.

This has been a very happy day for me.

I am especially pleased to be able to come here and tell you what a terrific job your own Congressman Paul Todd is doing in Washington.

I sometimes wonder why this health, this strength, and this prosperity are not on every tongue, and on every front page every day.
