WEBVTT

00:00:04.040 --> 00:00:06.040
Mhm. Yeah. You convene

00:00:09.640 --> 00:00:12.207
at a time

00:00:12.240 --> 00:00:18.056
where not only must your people
rededicate themselves and all that is

00:00:18.089 --> 00:00:23.517
within them to the task of waging
total war against our yet unconquered

00:00:23.550 --> 00:00:25.706
enemy.

00:00:25.739 --> 00:00:33.207
But at a time when many of your cities
and towns like ravage in the wake

00:00:33.240 --> 00:00:40.906
of that brutal enemies retreat with
many powers of your countrymen

00:00:40.939 --> 00:00:45.207
prospect and in war.

00:00:45.240 --> 00:00:53.006
What the burdens upon you? Our heaven.

00:00:53.039 --> 00:00:56.807
It is absolutely

00:00:56.840 --> 00:00:58.906
essential

00:00:58.939 --> 00:01:06.939
that you operate without. On two.
Thank you. Petty jealousy, selfish

00:01:08.260 --> 00:01:13.007
ambition. An unnecessary
misunderstanding

00:01:13.040 --> 00:01:21.040
must not be permitted to impede
progress and rend your country. The

00:01:21.939 --> 00:01:29.939
success of your joint venture with
America offers The one Great Hope our

00:01:32.620 --> 00:01:40.620
solution to the conflicting problems
of the east and west. Now, more than

00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:48.376
any other time in your history, you
must realize the vision of the

00:01:48.409 --> 00:01:54.107
magnificent goal card which you strive

00:01:54.140 --> 00:02:02.140
only by united action. Can you attain
fruition?

00:02:06.439 --> 00:02:14.439
Mhm. In every other major step in
which you have succeeded,

00:02:15.740 --> 00:02:23.740
you have done so through the strength
of the unity.

00:02:23.939 --> 00:02:28.106
Do not hail now.

00:02:28.139 --> 00:02:31.807
Mhm. Get. Mhm.

00:02:31.840 --> 00:02:35.906
Mhm. To assist you,

00:02:35.939 --> 00:02:43.939
the army will progressively give you
all the aid and reconstruction which

00:02:43.990 --> 00:02:49.356
the military situation will permit and
the appropriate civil agencies of

00:02:49.389 --> 00:02:57.389
the United States. We'll do all that
lies within their power. But such

00:02:57.500 --> 00:03:05.207
assistance is not enough. If it be
without the full support and willing

00:03:05.240 --> 00:03:08.506
toil of your own people.

00:03:08.539 --> 00:03:15.406
It is therefore of utmost importance.
Those in the successful prostitution

00:03:15.439 --> 00:03:22.816

your country. That's this legislative

00:03:22.849 --> 00:03:28.406
body in constructive collaboration

00:03:28.439 --> 00:03:34.957
with the coordinate branches of
government, executive and judicial provide

00:03:34.990 --> 00:03:42.990
the people with a figure inspiring,
impartial and discerning leadership on

00:03:45.110 --> 00:03:53.110
a course realistically charted to
serve those great national purpose.

00:03:55.139 --> 00:04:03.139
Yeah.

00:04:04.939 --> 00:04:09.106
In the 46 year

00:04:09.139 --> 00:04:12.807
my military service

00:04:12.840 --> 00:04:19.486
large parts of which have been
dedicated to the interests of the filipino

00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:22.507
people.

00:04:22.540 --> 00:04:25.986
No honor

00:04:26.019 --> 00:04:28.906
that I have received.

00:04:28.939 --> 00:04:36.939
Mhm. Have moved me more deeply than
those this congress has recently

00:04:38.740 --> 00:04:43.507
bestowed upon me.

00:04:43.540 --> 00:04:51.540
I accept them with a full heart as a
tribute to the historic part my

00:04:53.850 --> 00:04:59.507

your people.

00:04:59.540 --> 00:05:07.540

I and affection

00:05:18.040 --> 00:05:26.040
which binds us the one to the other.

00:05:27.240 --> 00:05:29.707
Yeah.

00:05:29.740 --> 00:05:32.007
The relations

00:05:32.040 --> 00:05:37.507
between the americans and filipino
people

00:05:37.540 --> 00:05:45.540
are sanctified by the blood of both.
No please and selflessly shed upon

00:05:46.949 --> 00:05:51.207

our mutual dead

00:06:22.439 --> 00:06:25.507
sleep for us.

00:06:25.540 --> 00:06:29.306
Mhm.

00:06:29.339 --> 00:06:34.207
Mhm. Well sacrifice.

00:06:34.240 --> 00:06:37.606
Mhm.

00:06:37.639 --> 00:06:41.007
Lives

00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:46.207
as a flaming toy.

00:06:46.240 --> 00:06:49.406
Higher the will

00:06:49.439 --> 00:06:55.207
and feel the hearts of free men

00:06:55.240 --> 00:07:03.240

to compromise

00:07:09.240 --> 00:07:16.007
that freedom form which they die.

00:07:16.040 --> 00:07:18.606

unyielding spirit to rise above the stern

00:07:34.720 --> 00:07:37.507
realities of the past

00:07:37.540 --> 00:07:45.540

Iraq

00:07:46.329 --> 00:07:49.606

00:07:49.639 --> 00:07:55.606
God grant that under your leadership

00:07:55.639 --> 00:08:01.306

00:08:01.339 --> 00:08:09.339
hi destiny of honor and dignity among
all of the people of the earth.

00:08:15.339 --> 00:08:17.606
Right

00:08:17.639 --> 00:08:20.906
will be my prayer.

00:08:20.939 --> 00:08:24.207
Always.

00:08:24.240 --> 00:08:28.007
Okay.

00:08:28.040 --> 00:08:31.906
The room was a roaring din of approval
as General Macarthur retired from

00:08:31.939 --> 00:08:36.287
the congressional chamber we had
witnessed and heard the climax to a

00:08:36.320 --> 00:08:40.427
sequence of events that will go down
in history as one of its most heroic

00:08:40.460 --> 00:08:44.756
chapter ringing through the background
or such unforgettable names as

00:08:44.789 --> 00:08:51.057
Corregidor Bataan, General wainwright,
The coral sea Makassar straits,

00:08:51.090 --> 00:08:55.476
Taro and new guinea and hundreds of
others whose immortality will stand

00:08:55.509 --> 00:09:01.577
forever as a tribute to the courage
and daring of men of goodwill. Still,

00:09:01.610 --> 00:09:05.957
this particular incident glittering
and meaningful though it was, was

00:09:05.990 --> 00:09:09.717
actually only an interlude in a drama
of defense on defense that now

00:09:09.750 --> 00:09:14.106
knocks at the very gates of the
enemy's island homeland. General Macarthur

00:09:14.139 --> 00:09:17.707
walked from the Philippine congress
warm to the souls of the gratitude of

00:09:17.740 --> 00:09:21.797
a battered people. But at the same
time fully aware that the war for total

00:09:21.830 --> 00:09:26.626
peace in the pacific still has to be
completed. His face showed the

00:09:26.659 --> 00:09:30.437
admirable determination, the inspired
bearing of one who will not be

00:09:30.470 --> 00:09:35.807
denied the final victory. I was not
surprised at the continuing ovation

00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:40.636
that followed him from the room and
hastened him on his way to the streets

00:09:40.669 --> 00:09:42.669
