Civilisation And Profits Go Hand

War Is The Rule Of Force, And Peace Is The Reign Of Law.

The Attempt To Regulate, Control, And Prescribe All Manner Of Conduct And Social Relations Is Very Old. It Was Always The Practice Of Primitive Peoples.

Whenever Nature's Bounty Is In Danger Of Exhaustion, The Chemist Has Sought For A Substitute. The Conquest Of Disease Has Made Great Progress As A Result Of Your Efforts. Wherever We Look, The Work Of The Chemist Has Raised The Level Of Our Civilization And Has Increased The Productive Capacity Of The Nation. Waste Materials, Formerly Cast Aside, Are Now Being Utilized.

No Method Of Procedure Has Ever Been Devised By Which Liberty Could Be Divorced From Local Self-government. No Plan Of Centralization Has Ever Been Adopted Which Did Not Result In Bureaucracy, Tyranny, Inflexibility, Reaction, And Decline.

If All Men Are Created Equal, That Is Final. If They Are Endowed With Inalienable Rights, That Is Final. If Governments Derive Their Just Powers From The Consent Of The Governed, That Is Final. No Advance, No Progress Can Be Made Beyond These Propositions.
