It Is An Unfortunate Fact That We Can Secure Peace Only By Preparing For War.

But Wherever We Are, We Must All, In Our Daily Lives, Live Up To The Age-old Faith That Peace And Freedom Walk Together. In Too Many Of Our Cities Today, The Peace Is Not Secure Because Freedom Is Incomplete." (john F. Kennedy, June 10, 1963, American University Speech)

The 768 Million Acres Remaining In Federal Ownership Are A Valuable National Asset.
