State of Connecticut
BY HIS EXCELLENCY
WILBUR L. CROSS
GOVERNOR
A # rur lantafiult
In accordance with the Statute which thus pro-
vides, I hereby designate Monday, February 15th, as
filairte ſilenturial Bau
Our historical literature is replete with phrases and
slogans which have been the inspiration of our
youth for high emprise. Not the least of these
are the ringing words, “Remember the Maine!”
In no spirit of truculence, but rather with that
sense of justice and service in the cause of human
freedom which has made the soul of America great,
there was quick response to the challenge of tyr-
anny and oppression. In recalling the chivalry of
that day and time, we help to gird our Nation with
the virtues of unselfishness upon which rest the
enduring foundation of peace, prosperity and
COIntentment.
Given under my hand and seal of the State at the Capitol, in Hartford, this twenty-fifth day of
January, in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and thirty-two and of the
independence of the United States the one hundred and fifty-sixth.
By His Excellency's Command:
Syca. Zºº, ºw
Secretary.
