le is an American boy.
ttre arc fifteen million like him in America; as young,
ittsr, as promising.
Tj?ne people feci sorry for these boys. They tell us
arom frontiers are 8one- They say there is no future

in this countrv.
Thorn believe such statements? We people of your
that npanv don't believe them, and we'll tell you
other
of&o\cirS ag° t^ie e^ectr'c '"^stry had barely begun
e. There were no automobile, radio and avia-
a-Luc'"es' ^om'n8 "ght UP to date, here are a few
gs we didn't have as recently as 1930:
Tbiine trains. Transoceanic air service. New
Yarifl^ resins. Synthetic rubber. Synthetic vitamins.
whe mide and su//apyridiney drugs that are revolu-
war medicine.
a y. are always new frontiers and new futures in
;a. In good times and bad, Americans work to
good things of life better and cheaper. The
^ees of your electric company are typical: their
have helped make it possible for this company to
tar better service than it could give twelve or fifteen
Vs ago, and to charge abou t haljwhat was charged then.
The men of your electric company were once Amer-
an boys. They believed in their own futures and the
L>H|jj*uture of their country. They worked to make
the future better for themselves and their fellow
citizens. They hope today's young Americans
f wiil not listen to pessimism, because they know
(that every American has a future if he sincerely
believes he has.
