Transcript

Destination Freedom Listen, it's the Freedom Bell The Freedom Bell, my friends And this is Paul Revere called back from the shadow by the sound of the Freedom Bell to cry again A warning that the Christ of Freedom is eternal vigilance Destination Freedom is presented by Station WMAQ in the interest of human freedom the world

over. Paul Revere is the symbol of warning, ready to ride down the skies to shot an alarm. His destination, now and forever, freedom. My friends of 1951, you live in perilous times as I and my compatriots did in 1776, times that again, trimonsoals, your whole century has been full of crises, and I'm sure you

grow weary in the fight for human rights and dignities, but do not say that the struggle not availed it. For each blow you strike for freedom does matter, does count toward shaping human destiny, not only in the United States, but in all those parts of the world which look to America for guidance, courage, and steadfastness.

Today I would like to talk to you about a family I know who lives in your day, and I would like to talk to you about a freedom that you Americans have, which grows daily more precious. The right to quit if you're on the wrong track. The right to choose a new path or job. You may have forgotten that you've forgotten many important things in your blessed

Constitution that under your Bill of Rights, Article 10, you do have a right to quit a job. You recall that every free man restrained of his liberty is entitled to a remedy to inquire into the lawfulness thereof and to remove the same if unlawful, and that such remedy ought not to be denied or delayed.
