|; T AM New York: all men know my fame and outward
^, i aspect, but few there are who know my heart
? ?
Not out of my own loins have my people come. ^
They make their way to me from the East, across the ) S
ocean, where the Statue in my harbor lights their spirits I
with fresh hopes. I
From the West, and South, and North, from every farm ^
and village, where clean-hearted, clear-eyed boys and girls
have turned their faces toward me as the home of oppor?
tunity.
They are the builders who have made me great; and on
J what foundation-stones, think you, have they built?
I On money? On commerce? On trade?
V They have wrought with materials more eternal.
They have laid my foundations on Faith, and fashioned
my greatness with Honor and the Plighted Word.
In my markets millions in gold pass back and forth I
upon the firm security of men's trust in one another. |
? When I give my word I do not falter. From every \
?? corner of the nation men have gone forth, relying on the
W promise of that word, to stretch great railroads across
1 the continent, to open mines and rear new cities on the ;
? unbroken plains. H
?; Because the war was fought for Right, I gave unspar
B[ ingly my sons and my resources. :<
S And not until the last dollar of the cost of Victory is paid
1 shall I call my task complete.
1 The Victory Loan is an Honor Loan to me;?it shall
M not fail.
ft
g For I am New York, the dwelling-place of Honor.
??S "A citv that hath foundations"? whose corner-stone is
?S ?
U Faith.
