AMERICA
A PROCLAM ATION

For many years it has been our Am eri can custom to set aside June 14 in honor of the flag, the emblem of our freedom, our strength, and our unity as an in d e -, pendent nation under God. Now we are fighting in the greatest cause the world has known. W e are fighting to free the people of this earth from the most powerful, the most ruthless, the most savage enemy the world has ever seen.
We are dedicating all that we have and all that we are to the combat. W e will not stop this side of victory.
We as a nation are not fighting alone.
In this planetary war we are a part of a great whole: we are fighting shoulder to shoulder with the valiant peoples of the United Nations, the massed, angered forces of common humanity. Unless all triumph, all will fail.
For these reasons it is fitting that on our traditional Flag Day we honor not only our own colors but also the flags of those who have, with us, signed the Declaration by United Nations, paying homage to those nations awaiting libera tion from the tyranny we all oppose, to those whose lands have escaped the scars of battle, to those who have long been heroically fighting in the blaze and havoc of war.
It is also fitting in this time of stress that we express our devotion to our courageous mothers, many of whom are sending out their sons to do battle with the enemy and all o f whom are so loyally contributing to the waging of the war on the home front.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, F R A N K L IN D.
ROOSEVELT, President of the United States of America, do hereby ask that on Flag Day, June 14,1942, the people of our Nation honor the peoples of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, the Union of Soviet
May 13, 1313

Socialist Republics, China, Australia, Belgium, Canada, Costa Rica, Cuba, Czechoslovakia, the Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Greece, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, India, Luxembourg, the Neth erlands, New Zealand, Nicaragua, N or way, Panama, Poland, the Union of South Africa, Yugoslavia knowing that only in the strength and valor of our unswerving unity shall we find the force to bring freedom and peace to mankind.
I direct the officials of the Federal Government, and I request the officials of the State and local governments, to have our colors displayed on all gov ernment buildings on Flag Day, and I
urge the people of the United States to fly the American flag from their homes in honor of the Nations mothers and their valiant sons in the service, and to arrange, where feasible, for join t dis plays of the emblems o f the freedomloving nations on that day.
IN W ITN E SS WHEREOF, I have here unto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States of America to be affixed.
DONE at the City of Washington this Bth day of May, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and forty-two, l se al and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and sixty-sixth.
