ZIMMERMAN WHAT'S THE FOUNDATION What's the foundation of America? Is it the mines, huge Industrial Plants, towering skyscrapers, rail- roads, miles of highways and the cars and trucks upon them, farms, or people? It is all of these and more. I think our founda tion contains all the Bills who mine coal, all the Toms who operate machines in big and little manufacturing establishments, all the Harrys who work in offices, all the Dans and Jacks who operate our trains, all the Jills who wait upon tables, write letters and sell ribbon, all the Mollys who can or freeze fruit, make jelly and jam, rear their children to be good citizens; the Zebs on reapers mowing grain for bread are as important as Bankers behind their desks. The Franks harvest potatoes; would you plan a dinner without including the fruit of their labor? These are the people who lead exemplary lives, whose names are never news; they carry the responsibility of America. Hoover Dam, big as it is, is little rock and cement; our foundation is little people and loyalty.
