he President's Rosh Hashana Message Book Reports on Middle East Naval Strength
THE WHITE HOUSE
WASHINGTON
On the occasion of the High Holy Days, it is my
pleasure to send special greetings to my fellow
Americans of the Jewish Faith. Your inheritance
of accumulated wisdom and moral precepts makes
you strong guardians of the ideals of righteousness,
justice and human dignity. This has given you a
ecial sensitivity to the social needs of each gen-
_:ation. And this has also been the guiding force
behind your impressive contributions to the vitality
our American democracy.
These solemn days of worship which you celebrate
have a message for all Americans. They exhort
us to search our souls, to render an inner account-
ing, and a self- examination of the standards we
profess and the actions we perform. They invite
-us to a return to righteousness and truth and to a
rebirth in the spirit of neighborliness and brother-
hood. They remind us that we are in God's hands
and that He has given us our lives in trust to use
in His service.
At a time which urgently tests our will as a people
to put humanity's interest above self-interest, we
can be greatly sustained and guided by the tradi-
tions of valor and resilience that mark the history
of the Jewish people.
