vVhat thi s country needs is not a new birth of freedom,
but the old-fashioned 2 low er birth.
\iVhat this country needs isn't mo re lib el-ty, but less
people who take lib erties with our li berty.
\i\That this country needs is not a job for every man,
but a r eal man for every job.
vVhat this country n eeds isn't to get more taxes from
th e people, but for the people to ge t more from the taxes.
vVhat this country n eeds is not m.ore miles of territo ry,
but more miles to the gall on.
vVhat this country n eeds isn' t more young men makin g speed, but more young men p lanting spuds.
\ iVhat this country n eeds is more paint on th e old
p lace and less paint on th e yo un g face.
vVh at this country needs isn 't a low er rate of interest
on money, but a high er inter es t in work.
v\That this country n eeds is to follow the footstep s of
the fathers instead of th e footsteps of the dancing
master.
WHERE IS YOURS?
A colored parson was r ead in g th e Ten Commandments
