Perhaps these ideas were part ot his whole beine,, for one of hi s a:t~ee.atora

wna Robert Livinaeton, who wae one ot the conmit tae that eo=tpOeed the

Declaration ot Independence on~~ 7, 1776.

When he undertook hie ti:r3t electoral campai gn , to become a Seoator 1

ho kncrw ~~:en and woe aware of the 1nju3ticos tha t ~ded thea. He wae

a"alcc to thei r wiahos a,nd t'elt tha.t he wa..s c.apablo or giv-ing thea what tblf

wanted , for he was convinced tha t to r each t.Jlis goal it a s only necesaa.ry

to work on the basis of the principl es which had inspired tbe Declaration ot

I ndependence, n~e~y that Well men ~re created equal . • To thia bia

conscience added •and the governments are there ooly to prot ect these rights

which the Ore&tor has given man . •

Retiring to private li.fe a.t't&r los ing his C&.!!lp&ign tor the Vie ...

Presidency, he 'f«<S striken by a terrible siekneas, infantile paral.yds, whieh

had not been 1Jell axplored at. that time and: therefor e was ditticult to cu.re

- but. aft e r th.J~ee years, through hio willpower and the care of his unseU'iab

w-1.fo1 he was able to overcome his handi cap.

In 1929 Roosevelt tr1Ullpbed Md becMIG Covernar of the Stt\to ot New

York . He i.m:tadi.ately directed an attack against t he great monopoli.es .

'I'h&t year saw a f ateful econo!lde crlsia e.nd bia measures were lmi:nediat;.e)J­

r e eiated by the great trusts and mlllionairea , who said. tha t he wanted to

interfere with their businosses .

Soon $-l'·terwarda Roosevelt (who in the meantime had beeo elacted to

the Presidency) convoked a Pan A•erican conference at Buenos Aires known a a

the "ln terama.rican Conference tor the Conaol ida t1on ot the Peac.e .• In the

inaugural add reeo he mado the following at&tuaent1 ( abridged)

-while expressing fai t h in the Western Remiephero • • .rrtr. that we will m.alntain and detend de!DOCn.t1c1 reprewentat1ve1 conetitG­tional governllont. We &lao 'll1ll rea1'tira our boliet that thraqb

This speech ot Roosevelt. becAme the- corners-tone or P&.n American

with tht'l Woshington gover nmant. Fr a.nklln o. Roooevelt was the one who

really inspired 411 Amer!oa with • feel ing of solidarity through the Good

Neighbor Policy .

Of equal i=portance w~a the Interostlonal Conference on world Pea e&

held at the Castle of Chapultepec in l'ebruMY 1945. I ts most i1111>0rtont

result was the Act or Cht.pultepec. 11. sgrees with Franklin D. Roosevel t's

ideas which he developed in 19.34 at Chica.eo in his •ceepta.nc:e apeeeh for th&

Pr esidential candidacy. Then he said, "I ulce you. depositaries and I make

mysalf r~aponsible for a New Deal for the A meriean people. I believe that

tho individUAl should have tull liberty ot action to develop in tho maaauro

of his or h er abUiUes but· I ale:o believe thAt a few ponr!\ll men should
