All of the original Project Gutenberg Etexts from the 1970's were produced in ALL CAPS, no lower case. The computers we used then didn't have lower case at all.
This is a retranscription of one of the first Project Gutenberg Etexts, offically dated November 22, 1973-- and now officially re-released on November 22, 1993-- on the 30th anniversary of his assassination.

Let every nation know. . .whether it wishes us well or ill. . . that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, to assure the survival and the success of liberty. This much we pledge. . .and more.
To those old allies whose cultural and spiritual origins
