In the one year since the Atlantic Charter was signed, it has taken its place among the great documents of human freedom beside Magna Carta and the Declaration of Independence. In many ways the Atlantic Charter is the greatest of these declara tions of men’s rights, for it does not apply simply to one nation or a small group of nations. The Charter began as an agreement between Britain and the United States, but today it stands as the fundamental statement of purpose for every one of the twenty-eight democratic nations which are aligned together in the fight against the Axis. The Atlantic Charter is not, as some people think, limited (Our Advertisers Are Assured of Results, Tlie Atlantic Charter . The President of the United States and the Prime Minister, Mr. Churchill, representing His Majesty’s Government in the United King dom, have met at sea. The President and the Prime Minister have had several conferences. They have considered the dangers to world civilization arising from the policies of military domination by conquest upon which the Hitlerite government of Germany and other governments associated therewith have embarked, and have made clear the steps which their countries are respectively taking for their safety in the face of these dangers. They have agreed on the following Declaration: The President of the United States of America and the Prime Min ister, Mr. Churchill, representing His Majesty’s Government in the United Kingdom, being met together, deem it right to make known certain common principles in the national policies of their respective countries on which they base their hopes for a better future for the world. FIRST, Their countries seek no aggrandizement, territorial or other; SECOND, They desire to see no territorial changes that do not accord with the freely expressed wishes of the peoples concerned; THIRD, They respect the right of all peoples to choose the form of government under which they will live; and they wish to see sovereign rights and self-government restored to those who have been forcibly deprived of them; FOURTH, They will endeavor, with due respect for their existing obligations, to further the enjoyment by all States, great or small, victor or vanquished, of access, on equal terms, to the trade and to the raw materials of the world which are needed for their economic prosperity; FIFTH, They desire to bring about the fullest collaboration between all nations in the economic field with the object of securing, for all, improved labor standards, economic advance ment and social security; SIXTH, After the final destruction of the Nazi tyranny, they hope to see established a peace which will afford to all nations the means of dwelling in safety within their own boun daries, and which will afford assurance that all the men in all the lands may live out their lives in freedom from fear and want; SEVENTH, Such a peace should enable all men to traverse the high seas and oceans without hindrance; EIGHTH, They believe all of the nations of the world, for realistic as well as spiritual reasons, must come to the abandon ment of the use of force. Since no future peace can be main tained if land, sea or air armaments continue to he employed by nations which threaten, or may threaten, aggression outside of their frontiers, they believe, pending the establishment of a wider and permanent system of general security, that the dis armament of such nations is essential. They will likewise aid and encourage all other practicable measures which will lighten for peace-loving peoples the crushing burden of armaments. FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT Dated August 14, 1941. WINSTON S. CHURCHILL to the nations bordering the Atlantic Ocean. On January 2nd of this year 26 nations signed a declaration subscribing to ’the Charter and pledging themselves to joint war against the aggressors. The Charter today applies just as much to the people of Australia and the grim fighting millions of China as it does to those of Great Britain. It is the charter of Russia’s Red Army and the gallant Chetniks of the Jugoslav mountains as well as the boys in the U. S. armed forces. In straightforward, simple language it defines the fundamental rights and the basic beliefs for which the United Nations are fighting and which the Axis has at tacked. In the years that will follow a United Nations vic tory, August 14th, Charter Day, may well become a world-wide holiday—an international independence day.
