(2) "Because responsible officers from both groups seem to me to be ready and capable of making a negotiated and just peace.” (3) ; "Because your memberships ardently desire peace and unity for the better ordering of their responsible life in the trade unions and their communities.” (4) “Because the Government of the United States and the people of America believe it to be a wise and almost necessary step for further development and co-operation between free men in a democratic society such as ours.”
