Emphasizing that Christian and Jew have in common the goal of realizing democracy in its every phase, tha MiehiBau governor antd it can be realized only "if wo do our best to minimize sectarian and racial barriers; if, in tho faith of Roger Williams, wo judge each citi¬ zen by his character and ability rather than by his theological creed; if in our social life we sin¬ cerely try to oeo through our neighbor's eyes ond ao to grasp ' his point ot view; If wo remind the Christian that Christ nnd His Apostles were loyal Jews and never abandoned their ancestral faith; if wo remind the Jew, in turn, that tho most influential Jew in history is the Man 6f Galilee; and it we kcop constantly before us this precept of both Judaism and Christianity; 'Thou Shalt love tho Lord thy God v;ith all thy heart, with all thy soul, with all |t'iy mind; thou shnlt love thy neigh¬ bor 03 thyself."'
