strong
"Abraham Lincoln had
belief in the significance of dreams.
but his greatest dream was the
American dream." This was the
opinion expressed by Dr. Benjamin
P. Thomas in the third Blazer Lec- ture of the 1953-5- 4 series, presented
Wednesday evening in the College
nf FHiiration Auditorium
Dr. Thomas is executive secretary
of the Abraham Lincoln Association
in Springfield. 111., and is the author
of several books on the 16th Presi- dent. He was introduced bv Dr. Wil- ham D. Gilliam Jr., associate pro- lessor of history at UK.
Dr. Thomas, speaking on "Lin
coln's Democratic Faith," said that
Lincoln's unwavering belief in the
American democratic tradition
found its greatest inspiration in the
Declaration of Independence,
"Lincoln felt that the core of the
Declaration was in the assertion
that all men are created equal and
that they have the right to life, lib- erty. and the pursuit of happiness."
Dr. Thomas said. "And he believed
that the purpose of government is
to make this declaration a reality,
To Lincoln, the Declaration of In- dependence meant a great deal
more than the mere fact that it
severed the bond of the colonies
with England.
Dr. Thomas declared that Lincoln hated slavery, believing that it
enabled the foes of democracy to
call us hypocrites.
But to Lincoln, according to Dr.
Thomas, the issue of the Civil War
was the preservation of democracy.

the preservation of the Union. Lincoln believed that if the Union were
