District Court
Observes Birthday
Of Constitution
Pointing out that the constitu
tion of the United States, after
months of debate, was signed 164
years ago today. Judge George W.
Folta. of U. S. District Court this
morning opened a brief ceremony
in the court room to call attention
to the anniversary.
Various attorneys of Juneau and
other citizens attended.
Judee Folta expressed regret that
lack of time and proper publicity
prevented a larger celebration on
this important mile-stone of our na
tion' history. He presented Patrick
J. Gilmore, district attorney who
gave a short address.
"Because of the stress of current
situations in the world today it is
highly appropriate that we observe
in our federal court as Constitution
Day,” Gilmore said. “Let us reflect
for a moment on the importance of
our constitution as a living guaranty
of the rights and principles of our
citizens and as a guide to our Ameri
can way of life.”
Gilmore traced America's history
from the arrival of the colonists,
who came to this continent to seek
release from physical and spiritual
oppression down through war
fought to defend and perpetuate
liberty and equality for all men.
"To millions of people everywhere,
America is a source of new strength
and . new hope. . .” Gilmore stated.
"Unfortunately . there are certain
governments which hate the free
dom we defend. They are dedicated
• to the proposition that a small rul
ing class knows what is best for all.”
Gilmore pointed out that as law
yers "all of us are sworn to defend
our constitution and the guaranties
of liberty it contains.”
He concluded by stating that “we
should be ever thankful for our
constitution, which is the founda
tion of our way of life, and the gov
ernment it provides for—the greatest
government in the world.”
