'aImperial Power of America" /"
ave to-day are in the presence of a
new display of imperial power. We
belong also to the imperial peoples.
Suddenly, without generalization, we
have been compelled to manifest in
the face of the world a force which
from this time on will be a controlling
force in the affairs of the world. 1t is
not for rs to say whether we will or
will not take up the imperiu4n. That
has been settled for us by divine Prov
idence. We are and must be a COM
manding nation. We have and must
hold a commanding position among
the nations of the world, and must
effect for good or for evil the destinies
of the world. 1t is impossible for us
to insulate ourselves, living in and for
ourselves only. Anation that exports
