In Chico County, Arkansas, James Wier overplanted his rice allotment. The
government obtained a 17,000 dollar judgment. And a U.S. marshal sold his 960acre farm at
auction. The government said it was necessary as a warning to others to make the system work.

Last February 19th at the University of Minnesota, Norman
Thomas, sixtimes candidate for President on the Socialist Party ticket, said, "If Barry Goldwater became President, he would stop the advance of socialism in the United States." I think that's exactly what he will do.

But as a former Democrat, I can tell you Norman Thomas isn't the only man who has drawn
this parallel to socialism with the present administration, because back in 1936, Mr. Democrat
himself, Al Smith, the great American, came before the American
people and charged that the leadership of his Party was taking the Party of Jefferson, Jackson, and Cleveland down
the road under the banners of Marx, Lenin, and Stalin.

And he walked away from his Party, and he never returned til the day he died because to
this day, the leadership of that Party has been taking that Party, that honorable Party, down
the road in the image of the labor Socialist Party of England.

Now it doesn't require expropriation or confiscation of private property or business to
impose socialism on a people.
What does it mean whether you hold the deed to the or the title to your business or property if the government
holds the power of life and death over that business or property? And such
machinery already exists. The government can find some
charge to bring against any concern it chooses to prosecute.
Every businessman has his own tale of harassment. Somewhere a perversion
has taken place. Our natural, unalienable rights
are now considered to be a dispensation of government, and freedom has never been so fragile, so
close to slipping from our grasp as it is at this moment.

Our Democratic opponents seem unwilling to debate these issues. They want
to make you and I believe that this is a contest between two men that we're to choose just between two personalities.

Well what of this man that they would destroy and in destroying, they would destroy that
which he represents, the ideas that you and I hold dear? Is he the brash and shallow and triggerhappy
man they say he is? Well I've been privileged
to know him "when." I knew him long before he ever dreamed of trying for high office, and I can tell you personally I've never known a man in my life I believed so incapable of doing a dishonest or dishonorable thing.

This is a man who, in his own business before he entered politics, instituted a profitsharing plan before unions had
ever thought of it. He put in health and medical insurance for all his
employees. He took 50 percent of the profits before taxes and set up a retirement program, a
pension plan for all his employees. He sent monthly checks for life to an employee who was ill and couldn't work. He provides nursing carefor the children of mothers who work in the
stores. When Mexico was ravaged by the floods in the Rio
Grande, he climbed in his airplane and flew medicine and supplies down there.

An exGI told me how he met
him. It was the week before Christmas during the Korean War, and he was at the Los Angeles airport
trying to get a ride home to Arizona for Christmas. And he said that [there were] a lot of servicemen
there and no seats available on the planes. And
then a voice came over the loudspeaker and said, "Any men in uniform wanting a ride to
Arizona, go to runway suchandsuch," and they went down there, and there was a fellow
named Barry Goldwater sitting in his plane.
Every day in those weeks before Christmas, all day long,
he'd load up the plane, fly it to Arizona, fly them to their homes, fly back over to get another load.

During the hectic splitsecond timing of a campaign, this is a man who took time out to sit
beside an old friend who was dying of cancer. His campaign
managers were understandably impatient, but
he said, "There aren't many left
who care what happens to her. I'd like her to
know I care." This is a man who said to his 19yearold
son, "There is no foundation like the rock of honesty and fairness, and when you begin
to build your life on that rock, with the
cement of the faith in God that you have, then you have a real start."

This is not a man who could carelessly send other people's sons to war. And that is the issue
of this campaign that makes all the other problems I've discussed academic, unless we realize
we're in a war that must be won.

Those who would trade our freedom for the soup kitchen of the welfare state have told us
they have a utopian solution of peace without victory. They call
their policy "accommodation." And they say if we'll only avoid any direct
confrontation with the enemy, he'll forget his evil
ways and learn to love us. All who oppose them are indicted as warmongers. They say we
offer simple answers to complex problems. Well, perhaps there is a simple answer not
an easy answer but
simple: If you and I have the courage to tell our elected officials that we
want our national policy based on what we know in our hearts is morally right.

We cannot buy our security, our freedom from the threat of the bomb by committing an
immorality so great as saying to a billion human beings now enslaved behind the Iron Curtain,
"Give up your dreams of freedom because to save our own skins, we're willing to
make a deal with your slave masters." Alexander Hamilton said, "A nation which
can prefer disgrace to danger is prepared for a master, and deserves one." Now let's set the record straight. There's
no argument over the choice between peace and war, but there's only one guaranteed way you can
have peace and you can have it in the next second surrender.

Admittedly, there's a risk in any course we follow other than this, but every lesson of history
tells us that the greater risk lies in appeasement, and this is the specter our wellmeaning
liberal friends refuse to face that their policy of accommodation
is appeasement, and it gives no
choice between peace and war, only between fight or surrender. If we continue to
accommodate, continue to back and retreat, eventually we have to
face the final demand the ultimatum. And what then when Nikita Khrushchev has told his people he knows what
our answer will be? He has told them that we're retreating under the pressure of the Cold
War, and someday when the time comes to deliver the final
ultimatum, our surrender will be voluntary, because by that
time we will have been weakened from within
spiritually, morally, and economically. He believes this because from our side he's heard voices pleading for
"peace at any price" or "better Red than dead," or as one commentator put it, he'd rather "live
on his knees than die on his feet." And therein lies the road to war, because those voices don't
speak for the rest of us.

You and I know and do not believe that life is so dear and peace so sweet as to be purchased
at the price of chains and slavery. If nothing in life is worth dying for, when did this begin just
in the face of this enemy? Or should Moses have told the children of Israel to
live in slavery under the pharaohs? Should Christ
have refused the cross? Should the patriots at
Concord Bridge have thrown down
their guns and refused to fire the shot heard 'round the
world? The martyrs of history were not fools, and our honored dead who gave their lives to
stop the advance of the Nazis didn't die in vain. Where, then, is the road to peace?
Well it's a simple answer after all.

You and I have the courage to say to our enemies, "There is a price we will
not pay." "There is a point beyond which they must not advance."
And this this is the meaning in the phrase of Barry Goldwater's "peace through strength."
Winston Churchill said, "The destiny of man is not measured by material computations. When great
forces are on the move in the world, we learn we're spirits not animals." And he said,
"There's something going on in time and space, and beyond time and space, which, whether we like it or not, spells duty."

You and I have a rendezvous with destiny.

We'll preserve for our children this, the last best hope of man on earth, or we'll sentence them
to take the last step into a thousand years of darkness.

We will keep in mind and remember that Barry Goldwater has faith in us. He has faith that
you and I have the ability and the dignity and the right to make our own decisions and determine our own destiny.

Thank you
very much.
