| Description: | Shaky, dark in spots blurry in contrast and imagery Helping needy children abroad is both a humanitarian gesture and also in our national self interest, State Secretary George C. Marshall tells huge throng during 'crusade' rally at Madison Square Garden. State Secretary, George C. Marshall addresses the audience: "I'm sure that there's no one listening tonight who does not recognize the children whose bodies have been starved, warped are likely to develop if they survive into a generation of embittered adults. Our national interest as well as our humanitarian instinct demands that we do not permit this to happen. If we fail to do our part for the nourishment and care and normal development today of the children with whom our children will have to live tomorrow. We shall of failed in an statesmanship as well as humanity". - Applause | |
