ment The chief address was deliv-

In part:
IL bring you the cordial greetings
Of President Roosevelt, who greatly
regrets his inability TO join with you
In the dedication of this monument to
its exalted purpose.
This monument had its inception
in a noble, patriotic impulse. 1t will
stand as the symbol Of the gratitude Of
great people for the services and
the sacrifices OF brave men who more
the battlefield to preserve the integri
ty Of the great republic.
1T proclams the everlasting truth
that the rights Of men upon the Amer
lean continent cannot be trampled ia
the dust. that the rights Of the hum.
blest are as sacred as the rights Of the
most exalted.
I'VE hear much of defalcation
breaches Of trust, malfeasance In of.
nee. and there are pessimists who de-
clare that we have fallen upon cor
rupt times, that we are decadent, that
the public conscience is dulled. On
the contrary, there never was an hour
in all Of our splendid history when
there was more acute moral sense
among the great masses of the people
and more uprightness in their relations
Of life than there is today. The stand
ard Of civic duty was never higher
than 1t is now There was never more
respect for high grade of CONNER
cial and professional ethics than at
present. There is widespread de-
termination among the people that
