This is Memorial Day weekend. To millions of Americans it will be just another holiday to be spent at the beaches, in the mountains, or just puttering around home; but to other millions of Americans it will be a day of thoughtful consecration and a rededication to those high principles for which our loved ones gave their lives. Some of us have ancestors who were at Valley Forge. Many have ancestors who gave their lives in the war between the States, soldiers who fought for the Union and soldiers who fought for the Confederacy, but each fighting for a principle in which he believed. Thousands of us have loved ones who gave their lives in other conflicts in which this country was engaged. Many of them are buried in the National Cemeteries at home and broad, heroes who gave their lives to preserve the rich heritage of freedom which we are privileged to enjoy. While there are many National Cemeteries, perhaps the best known one is the Arlington Cemetery in Virginia, across the Potomac from our Nation's Capital. Here are the Tombs of the Unknown Soldiers. I expect to attend the annual Memorial Day services at this Cemetery. In this Cemetery is located the home of the and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also." America—The Land of Youth Last week, King Baudouin of Belgium spoke to the Joint Session of Congress, and I should like to quote the closing paragraph of his talk: "Perhaps never before has peace been so difficult to achieve as it is today. At other times, the possibility of war eased our homelands and our home. Today war endangers our minds and our hearts. The old imperialism sought the conquest of lands; the new seeks the mastery of intellects. The peace which we have to labor is not preserve our possessions, but o While there are many National Cemeteries, perhaps the best known one is the Arlington Cemetery in Virginia, across the Potomac from our Nation's Capital. Here are the Tombs of the Unknown Soldiers. I expect to attend the annual Memorial Day services at this Cemetery. In this Cemetery is located the home of the great Conferedate General, Robert E. Lee, which faces the beautiful Lincoln Monument, across the Potomac, only a stone's throw away. I doubt if any two other great Americans had a deeper regard and affection for each other than these two great figures of the Civil War. Lincoln said shortly before his death, "With malice toward none and with charity for all, with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right." Shortly before his death, which occurred about five years after that of Lincoln, General Lee was asked if he held any bitterness in his heart. His answer was a quick and emphatic "No." There is no room in the heart for both love and bitterness, and General Lee did all that he could to "bind up the Nation's wounds" which Lincoln was unable to do because of his untimely death. The simple inscription on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier is "Here Rests in Honored Glory an American Soldier, Known But to God." He may have been a buck private or he may have been an officer; he may have been a farm boy or a business tycoon; but in death all are equal before their Maker. Perhaps the best known National Cemetery in a foreign land is that of Flanders Field in Belgium. This is because of the beautiful poem by John McCrae, "In Flanders fields the popples blow, Between the crosses, row on row." However, there are but 368 American soldiers buried there, while in the Meuse-Argonne in France there are fourteen thousand soldiers of World War I. The largest National Cemetery outside of the United States is at Fort McKinley, Manila, where there are buried more than seventeen thousand soldiers of World War II. There is also a National Cemetery in Mexico City, of about two Between the crosses, row on row." However, there are but 368 American soldiers buried there, while in the Meuse-Argonne in France there are fourteen thousand soldiers of World War I. The largest National Cemetery outside of the United States is at Fort McKinley, Manila, where there are buried more than seventeen thousand soldiers of World War II. There is also a National Cemetery in Mexico City, of about two acres, where the remains of 750 officers and men of the United States Armed Forces are buried. The casualties of the Mexican officers and over twelve thousand enlisted men, and only a few bodies were recovered and placed in this Cemetery. Great pieces of literature and art have been born during the stress and strain of war. Outstanding among these, of course, is Lincoln's "Gettysburg Address which is in itself a memorial sermon of the highest order. Out of that same war came the immortal Battle Hymn of the Republic by Harriet Beecher Stowe. Out of World War I came that beautiful poem, "Trees," by Joyce Kilmer, and "In Flanders Fields" by John McCrae. Yes, on Memorial Day there will be many vacant chairs, but we can all be comforted by the promises of eternal life. "Dust thou art, to dust returneth, was not spoken of the soul." It is the body that returns to dust, but the soul returns to God who gave it. "Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many manions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again. as it is today. At other the possibility of war enced our homelands and our Today war endangers our and our hearts The older alism sought the conquest is; the new seeks the masf intellects. The peace for we have to labor is not to save our possessions, but our very personalities . . . Youth is the first victim of war, the first fruit of peace. It takes 20 years of peace to make a man; It takes only 20 seconds of war to destroy him . . . In a certain sense, America is the land of youth, because it dedicates more of its energies, talents, money and science to the birth and preservation of life than any other country in the world . . . nor shall our confidence in you be misplaced, for what is written on your coins, I have read in the hearts of American people: 'In God, we trust.'
