Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The American Spirit The essays and addresses that compose this volume I have entitled "The American Spirit," because they illustrate different phases of that spirit in our economic and national life and international relations. The problems that present themselves to each generation vary with the tendencies of the times. While our age is dominantly commercial and industrial, it should he our care to regulate and guide the forces of development so that they shall be subordinate to the unchanging principles of our democratic institutions and so that they shall not narrow, but widen, the highways of opportunity for the average man, woman and child of this and the coming generations. The equality of political rights will not conserve the stability of our institutions and promote the happiness of our people unless the gateway to economic betterment remains wide open to industry and thrift. I desire to express my appreciation to my esteemed friend, Dr. Rossiter Johnson, for his valuable suggestions and for his aid in reading the proofs of this volume.
