National Symbol
by Charles Evans Hughes
The flag is the symbol of our national unity, our
national endeavor, our national aspiration.
The flag tells of the struggle for independence, of union preserved, of
liberty and union one and inseparable, of the sacrifices of brave men and
women to whom the ideals and honor of this nation have been dearer than
life.
It means America first; it means an undivided allegiance.
It means America united, strong and efficient, equal to her tasks.
It means that you cannot be saved by the valor and devotion of your
ancestors, that to each generation comes its patriotic duty; and that upon
your willingness to sacrifice and endure as those before you have
sacrificed and endured rests the national hope.
It speaks of equal rights, of the inspiration of free institutions
exemplified and vindicated, of liberty under law intelligently conceived
and impartially administrated. There is not a thread in it but scorns
self-indulgence, weakness, and rapacity.
It is eloquent of our community interests, outweighing all divergencies of
opinion, and of our common destiny.
