We are humbly aware that only through divine guidance can we hope to attain the understanding necessary for averting wars and achieving a peaceful world.

I have every confidence in Mr. Lilienthal.

I can't run the legislative branch of the Government.

I also request the newspapers, radio stations, and all other media of information to join in the observance of Memorial Day, 1949, as a day of prayer for peace, and in the collective Nation-wide prayer on the morning of that day.

I personally know what the country's position on atomic energy is.

I am sorry that they recommitted it.

I think Congress ought to finish the job so far as it can; and I think it will.

No, I can't give a tentative date, and neither can anybody else.

I can't give you any personal preference or priority.

I am not for it.

It is time people stopped getting hysterical when the word 'atom' is mentioned.

On Memorial Day each year it is our custom to pay homage to our heroic dead who have sacrificed their lives in the cause of liberty and peace.

I suggested that that be done, and I think it will be done before this Congress adjourns.

I served in the Armed Forces once, and I know what I am talking about.

I can't tell you how much I appreciate the interest you have taken in this procedure which we are following.

We are pressing for the implementation of that platform, and shall continue to press for it until we accomplish the purpose which was set out.

The principles for which we are fighting are just as old as the Constitution of the United States, and just as new as the Democratic Platform of 1948.

I appreciate it, and hope very much that I will continue to deserve it.
