Former State Commander's Memorial Day Address At Milford Cemetery

(EDITOR’S NOTE: Joe Donovan. 1967-68 Indiana Department Commander, of the American Legion, was the speaker at the Milford cemetery Saturday at impressive Memorial Day sendees. The complete text of his timely remarks are reprinted here.) Ladies and gentlemen, with an eloquence uniquely its own among our national observances. Memorial Day conveys for us the message of the price and pain of freedom. The fallen heroes we honor on th.c occasion rest in nearly every corner of our nation and world. And their silence testifies that there were Americans in every crisis of our history who placed their country above themselves and their own safety and comfort. We honor them on this significant day with public observances in villages and cities across our land. We honor them individually in the silence of our hearts and minds. We remember their spirit as the timeless one through which our freedoms have endured these nearly two centuries of our nationhood. From these heroes’ faith, from their example, we gain strength, courage and inspiration to continue to build an even better nation and society. This is an inspiration for human decency and society. This is an inspiration for human decency and must be our greatest heritage from them. Memorial Day. coming in the spring as it does, and with its emphasis on flowers, has strong ties with nature's process of renewal. And the very season, with its expressions of hope, also would seem to suggest that mankind renew its eternal search for peace with freedom and the guarantee of human dignity. When this quest is successful, the men and women like those whom we honor in this hallowed moment will no longer need to know the total hell of war. Memorial Day began as an observance in the wake of our Civil War. This was after our nation had undergone her greatest tragedy and trial, with brother pitted against brother, section against section. Known in that beginning period also as Decoration Day. this holiday began as a time of tribute by the placing of flowers on the grave of the dead of the Civil War fighting. Now the purpose of Memorial, Day has been expanded to include in the tribute all who have fallen in our nation's wars from the Revolution to the Viet Nam War. Memorial Day is now a national day or remembrance, on which each of us should give a reverent salute to the memory of heroes numbering approximately 1 million from all sections, from all races and from all walks of life that America embraces. As a speaker for The American Legion on this occasion. I want to return to an earlier thought in this talk. That thought is that from these heroes’ demonstration of faith in America, we gain the strength, the courage and the inspiration to continue to build an even better nation and society I do not call forth this theme in any light manner, but rather with a sense of urgency that suggests the need for us to find>real unity among ourselves, along with emphasizing common bonds, that strengthen the necessary goals of a nation and society. In an age of disruptive dissent that has become almost away of life in our times, we also have come to bandy about a terribly abused term ... generation gap .. to the extent that one wonders by what manner and even what of our culture is to be transmitted to the young Let us begin this long road back to sanity in our affairs in America by a simple demonstration of a belief in what I am sure, down deep in our hearts, is

a strong conviction for you, for me. Deep in our hearts whether we are young or older we know that America is nearly unique in the world in the richness of natural and other resources. We know it to be politically and in many other ways the first and the last best hope for man. This is a true picture of our nation even if we concede America her faults. And I believe this can be said from the heart regardless of our particular race or any other factor influencing our thinking. This does not suggest that we indulge in a Pollyanna philosophy of burying our heads in the sands of delusion. Rather it suggests pointing our eyes straight in the direction of realism. America belongs to each of us, to you and me. We share her failures, her triumphs, and her responsibilities. We share individual responsibility to make America all we want and hope for her to be. There can be no delegation of that responsibility. Our hopes and our aims for America can be broad or dangerously narrow. Above all and no matter what our age. let us make America’s business our business and her interests our interests. And here each of us must utter a prayer that God grant us the continued vision ... the wisdom . . . to see always the big picture, the grand and decent scheme of things. Let us strive always for the ideal, not the selfish comfort of the moment. Let’s put our resolve into other words: Let’s have a renewal of faith in America and her institutions. Let’s make those institutions work and serve equally all Americans. Decency, we must remember, comes from the heart, not from government edict. Let this resolve begin in the minds and hearts of young as well as older Americans on this day of tribute to those who found America worthy of their deepest possible expression of faith . . . their lives. HEX RURAL CLUB IN JUNE MEETING The Hex rural extension homemakers club met Tuesday afternoon at the Hex Grange hall with 11 members responding to roll call “Where we went on our honeymoon '” There was one guest, Mrs. Harry Willard of Benton, and one child present.
