I need hardly emphasize how important it is that the unity of the American people be stronger in these years of stress and strain than it ever has been before. We must stand united in our free democratic beliefs. in our tolerance. in our allegiance to the Constitution. in our abiding and basic respect for the dignity of every man. In my opinion. establishment of the American Museum of Immigration will be an historic event in the development of our national life. It will be historic because it will create the great shrine at which American national unity will be nourished in our time and in all the ages to come. The American Museum of Immigration will be historic. also. because it will provide the Statue of Liberty. for the first time in her life of nearly 70 years. with a setting appropriate to her everlasting majesty. as the universal symbol of America. As a part of this effort to add brilliant new meaning to the setting of the Statue of Liberty. it has been suggested by the trustees of the American Museum of Immigrationheaded by U. S. Grant 3d. major general.
