In this gladsome hour of the country's and the world's history may I not indulge myself in the pleasure of tendering to you my congratulations upon the triumphant conclusion thus far reached in the world struggle for freedom justice and democracy under your inspired leadership. Every liberty loving man, every true humanitarian, every devotee of the spirit and fact of peace and good will have been proud to follow, to do and to sacrifice. Glory and progress for America, for the peoples of the world. Honor, long life and a superb immortality are yours.Samuel Gompers.
