Freedom . . . freedom of speech, of religion, of assembly . . . freedom from want, freedom from fear. When we think of our nation on her 235th birthday, we remem- ber the freedoms we have and refect on the sacrifces made by men and women through the years to ensure those freedoms. We remember, too, that one of our freedoms is free enterprise - the freedom of pri- vate business to organize and operate for proft without undue interference by govern- ment, or as Woodrow Wilson once put it, the ability to compete having a “free feld and no favor.” We take this opportunity to salute our nation and the free enterprise system that helps keep us strong, and to point with pride to our own record of serving Columbus County.
