lar, with his insight into the
great religious and philosophic
traditions — with the public
servant and the businessman
who have born broad responsi
bilities in the world of affairs.
Out of this kind of moral in
quiry can we not now take
stock and head into the future
with fresh determination and
dedication? I believe we can.
We must renew the American
covenant; that covenant under
which our forefathers estab
lished a new nation and pur
sued a dream. This covenant—
this dream—has meant differ
ent things to different people
—but to all it has represented
man’s inalienable rights to ex
ercise freedom.
This covenant must be re
pledged by the individual, by
the family, and in the home.
It must be renewed in our
churches and in our syna
gogues. Above all, it must be
renewed in our heart and with
all our soul. As it was written
of King Josiah of Judah in 622
B.C.E.: “And the king stood
by a pillar, and made a coven
ant before the Lord, to walk
after the Lord, and to keep his
commandments and his testi
monies and his statutes with
all their heart and all their
soul, to perform the words of
this covenant that were writ
ten in this book. And all the
people stood to the covenant.’
We need — each of us — to
make a commitment; to have a
sense of commitment. We
must each care. It is not for
the other fellow to serve on
the school or hospital board;
it is not for the other fellow
to serve his community and
his nation. We both must —
each in our way.
Certainly, if we are not
charged with seeing the
United States a vital and pro
gressive society in all its as
pects, and a beacon of inde
pendence to all those nations
who wish to join with us as
equal partners in the work of
mankind — we can hardly ex
pect other people to make the
hard decisions that the high
road to freedom and liberty
will increasingly require.
The Rockefeller Panel Re
port No. VI had this to say:
“Democracy is a powerful
idea because it both assumes
and is built upon the moral
commitment of its supporters.
It will require all the power
this commitment can generate
in the decades ahead to deal
affirmatively and courageous- _
ly with the vast and pressing
problems faced by all coun
tries of today’s world.’’
It is my conviction that the
American people are prepared
to make this commitment; to
renew the covenant. I am cer
tain that it will be sustained
by deep reservoirs of pioneer
spirit and spiritual purpose.
