It belongs no more to the most sincere 4th of July orator than to the least prominent listener in the audience. And patriotism does not belong exclusively to those of us who are fortunate to have been born in the United States. It is expressed as wellsometimes betterin letters which come across my desk. written by newly naturalized citizens whose hearts overflow with gratitude for the newfound joys of freedom in the United States. It is right to be patriotic every day. It is right. also. that a special day be set aside in tribute to the American flag. under which so many have sacrificed so much that the United States of America remain always the land of the free and the home of the brave.
