An industry message which details the importance of American industry and claims its significance and relation to American ideologies and the everyday life of American people. Clip briefly describes American life and the reason why people moved towards it. The open shoot is of the New York city skyline from the water, as if one were arriving by boat. Appropriately the next shot is of the Statue of Liberty. As the narrator talks of religious freedom the clip cuts to shots of churches and synagogues, cuts to footage of people voting, cuts to a class room scene, cuts to footage of business and industry working.
