PROCLAMATION

WHEREAS, despite great advances in all fields of endeavor, there is still distrust and misunderstanding--and even strife--among nations; and

WHEREAS, the greatness, the progress of this Nation and this state have stemmed from the ability of our people to understand one another and to work together for the common good; and

WHEREAS, the continued progress and advancement of this Nation and of all Nations will be measured in terms of the fruitful efforts of men of good will to advance the principles of brotherhood, liberty and justice; and

WHEREAS, dedicated members of our society, working through the National Conference of Christians and Jews and its affiliated regional units, annually invite all citizens to join with them in the month of February in observing Brotherhood Month and in practicing the principles of brotherhood; now

THEREFORE, I, J. CALEB BOGGS, Governor of the State of Delaware, do hereby proclaim the week of February 15-22, 1959, as

BROTHERHOOD WEEK IN DELAWARE

and urge all Delawareans, in their daily lives, to observe the principles of brotherhood and "Good Will to all Men".

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I, J. Caleb Boggs, Governor of the State of Delaware, have hereunto set my hand and caused the Great Seal of the said State to be hereunto affixed at Dover this sixteenth day of January in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and fifty-nine and of the Independence of the United States of America, the one hundred and eighty-third.
