It is curious that America. the melting pot. should give rise to "group effort." Men of widely different backgrounds. of tremendous philosophic differences. of unique racial variants. came together and somehow their differences were woven into a new strength. Their variations contributed to a new kind of understanding. a new power. a new use of the resources of manhood that that made all the combined empires of history seem pale and hollow in comparison. They listened to Psalms: "Except the Lord build the House. they labour in vain that build it." This nation of immigrants learned to work together because they had learned to pray together. This prayer was. for the pioneers of our country. an education. An education in the belief. in the trust. in the confidence of their colleagues. their campanions. their coworkers.
