The very word
"secrecy" is repugnant in a free and open society. And we are, as a people, inherently and historically, opposed to secret societies, to secret oaths and to secret proceedings. We decided long ago that the dangers of excessive
and unwarranted concealment of pertinent facts far outweighed the dangers which are cited to justify it. Even today, there is little value in opposing
the threat of a closed society by imitating its
arbitrary restrictions. And there is very grave danger that an announced need
for increased security will be seized upon by those
anxious to expand its meaning to the very limits of official
censorship and concealment. That I do not intend to permit to the extent
that it's in my control

The very word
"secrecy" is repugnant
00:00:03.037 --> 00:00:06.104
in a free and open society.
00:00:06.106 --> 00:00:07.971
And we are, as a people,
00:00:07.973 --> 00:00:10.341
inherently and historically,
00:00:10.343 --> 00:00:12.843
opposed to secret societies,
00:00:12.845 --> 00:00:14.178
to secret oaths
00:00:14.018 --> 00:00:16.581
and to secret proceedings.
00:00:16.583 --> 00:00:18.055
We decided long ago
00:00:18.552 --> 00:00:22.521
that the dangers of excessive
and unwarranted concealment
00:00:22.523 --> 00:00:24.255
of pertinent facts
00:00:24.257 --> 00:00:26.257
far outweighed the dangers
00:00:26.259 --> 00:00:28.995
which are cited to justify it.
00:00:28.997 --> 00:00:30.597
Even today,
00:00:30.599 --> 00:00:34.901
there is little value in opposing
the threat of a closed society
00:00:34.903 --> 00:00:37.974
by imitating its
arbitrary restrictions.
00:00:38.673 --> 00:00:41.107
And there is very grave danger
00:00:41.109 --> 00:00:44.712
that an announced need
for increased security
00:00:44.714 --> 00:00:49.025
will be seized upon by those
anxious to expand its meaning
00:00:49.252 --> 00:00:53.689
to the very limits of official
censorship and concealment.
