MEMORANDUM FOR THE HEADS
OF EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS AND AGENCIES
Once again this year it is my privilege to serve as Honorary
Chairman of Brotherhood Week.
Brotherhood Week is, as you know, observed during the week
of George Washington's birthday, since it was the Father of Our
Country who set forth the principle which guides us still, "To bigotry
no sanction, to persecution no assistance. "
In the period February 21 through February 28, it is my hope
that all associated with the Federal Government will make special
effort to give Brotherhood Week 1965 added meaning in their offices,
communities, neighborhoods and homes. The greater unity of our
diverse society is a goal toward which we, particularly, should labor
and lead without ceasing.
Strong differences among our people have made our democracy
dynamic. But when disagreement degenerates into discrimination, when
firm conviction corrodes into bigotry, when healthy differences become
the basis for sick divisions, America's strength is sapped and our cause
is crippled.
The Honorable W. Willard Wirtz, Secretary of Labor is serving
as Government Chairman for Brotherhood Week 1965. Secretary Wirtz
and the offices of the National Conference of Christians and Jews through-
out the country will welcome the opportunity to assist you and your employees
in planning for the meaningful observance of this important week this year.
I hope that each Department and Agency will, in its own way,
undertake during this week to emphasize the need for all citizens to work
throughout 1965 toward the fuller realization of a decent society, respectful
of differences of ethnic background, race and religion and responsive to
the goal of equal opportunity for every citizen.
