 No finer, no nobler example of pow CT, courage and resolution, of all that makes men worthy of admiration and of praise has been exhibited than was exhibited by the army of the United States in the Philippines and it was be- cause they were not modelled after the mercenary soldier but because they were free American citizens, fashioned upon the model of the great army of the civil war.
 Let those who will select individual cases or deeds among these soldiers of today and seek to make them the basis of detraction and condemnation for all, as they did with you in your day of ac- tion. I know, and I know it upon testi- mony overwhelming, that the army of the United States today is brave, self restrained, gallant, honorable and coura ageous, and that never in the his tory of warfare among men has an army exhibited the highest qualities of civilization, of manhood, to a greater degree than the American army in the Philippines"
