BATTLE OF BALLOTS
INSTEAD OF BULLETS

The significance OF Decoration Day IS
not in the fact that a nations heroes are
dead. but that the nation for which they
died still lives, and the heritage Of free
dom for which they fought still en-
dures." Representative Sidney Anderson.
Of Minnesota, a veteran OF the Spanish
war. declared in his Grafton to the
United STanish War Veterans at their
memorial services in the Spanish war
section Of Arlington Cemetery yesterday.
Let US not forget" Mr.. Anderson
said, that the struggle for freedom did
not stop with AppomattoN or with
Santiago. The rage of battle has not
changed. II has simply been transmitted
to another place and another day, to be-
comeJa battle OF ballots instead Of bull

F.. Duty to Revive Spirit.
Department Commander James p.

cording to the ritual Of the United
Spanish War Veterans, said:
We are assembled here to perpetuate
a custom by the. veterans Of the civil
war the continuance OF which as time
goes on will depend upon US II Is our
duty to endeavor by words and actions
to revive the spirit Of patriotism which
seemingly. though I hope not actually.
appears to be on the wane. and particu-
larry at this time, when the principles
OF our country, which our forefathers
considered II a privilege to fght for
and an honor to die for. are Jeopardized
by those who lately arrived on our
shores and who have not as yet culti-
waited love for our country and rev.
erence to our flag. II is our duty. there
fore, as members OF the United Spanish
War Veterans, individually and coIlec-
lively, to educate the present genera
tion to the necessity OF having unbound
ed patriotism. in order that this great
and glorious country OF ours may con-
tinue to be free, standing for the prin-
Ciples II has always stood for-life lib
erty, and the pursuit Of hippiness: that
the Stars and Stripes shall continue to
be the emblem OF liberty and our flag
respected in every land and on every

Following the address Of Mrs Ham,
mond. a salute OF twenty-one guns was
fired by a battery OF the District National
Guard. While the salute was being fired,
the Naval Gun Factory Band played pa

a beautiful tribute. MAI. Butt Is not

NudElds lndl lives To-Day IN lne spirit OF
the bill of rights OF the Constitution of
the United States, Think OF the con-
tinued struggle fr0m that until the fight
OF the commons against Charles I and
then the assertion OF the rights Of the
commons in 1855 against the aggressiOns
Of the later Stuarts! And then consider
the fight during the eighteenth century
which transferred the power in England
from the king to the people. And then
the war Ior our Independence. Look
back upon the sacrifice of our ancestors,
the lives lost, the suffering, the strenu-
Gus endeavor, the many defeats, and
the final triumph of weak, struggling
confederacy after six years Of Continu-
Gus war.
rs it not the fact that all that effort
and all that cost which we celebrate as
the Fourth OF every July increase in our
minds the Importance OF the principles
Of the Declaration Of Independence and
the Constitution which followed It? Are
not the limitations Of that Constitution.
its declarations, its divisions into sepa-
rate branches OF popular government,
its checks and balances, all Of them
made sacred and inviolate by the revolu-
tionary war, and are they not sealed in
the blood Of its heroes2
And then when We come to the great
est cataclysm to which our nation has
ever been subjected-indeed, the greatest
to which any nation has ever been sub
jected-when We think how the whole
nation, led by Abraham Lincoln, went
down into the valley Of the shadow Of
death. and the agony OF spirit through
which every patriot passed, the hundreds
of thousands of lives and the thousands OF
millions of treasure, and the unlimited
suffering of the people. can We forget the
cause that thereby was maintained, the
principles that thereby were vindlcated,
and the governmental structure whose
foundations were thereby renewed and
made more solid and more venerated?
Fought to Preserve Union.
I'VE fought to preserve the Union, to
maintain the Constitution, modified only
by striking out slavery and putting on an
equality as to freedom, as TO civil and
political rights, the man with the dark
skin with the man Of the white skin. We
consecrated again representative govern
ment by the people. We consecTated
again the inalienable rights Of the indi-
viduaI citizen, and We have given them
a sanction end a stability that annual
observances like this are best fitted to
preserve and to maintain.
aIt Is the solemn contemplation OF
what the civil war and its conse-
auences really meant in the history OF
our country that makes this days cell
ebration most valuable. = 1t is religious
regard for the pillar of popular gov
erument, for the principle OF liberty
regulated by law, for the preserva-

tions which this days ceremonies
should conseerate and strengthen. On

SELFISHNESS MAY
Be JUSTIFIED

We are accustomed to hear sell |
fishness arraigned by preachers
and moralists as a vicious char
acteristic- to be conscien-
tiously eradicated. They seem
to regard it as the root of all ev-
il; and most likely it is. But
talk all they may, selfishness
never has been eradicated from
human nature and probably new
er will be.
Selfshness after all has its us
es. If it is the root of evil. it is
also the root of much that is
good; and there is reason to
doubt if the world could get
along without it. Selfshness is
at the bottom of most human &C
tivities, and as a motive force
may be used to produce justifia-
BILE results. Statesmen and pub
licists learned long ago that it is
almost impossible to sway any
large number of people by an ar
gument which does not make
more or less selfish appeal.
To admit that the handspring
of human activity is governed
more by selfishness than any 9th
er factor may not be agreeable
to those of us who are accus-
toned to interpret life according
to a philosophy of rosy-hued ide-
alism. But if truth compels the
admission, let it not lead to pes
simism and inertia. Let us face
the fact and make the best Ct it.
Let us be wise in our selfishness.
Let us weigh our interests and
sacrifice the selfish inclinati0ns
of the moment for greater salts
faction to come. Let us pay the
price for big things.
This principle finds exemplifi
cation in the campaign for com
munity development which ;
great many towns throughout tn,
United States are. now waginR
The motive actuating these cam
paigns is not one of pure altru
ism nor yet of pure avarice. Il
is what might be called "th'
higher selfishness." 1t is an ap
peal to the citizens of thes,
towns to get together and Civ,
a little time and thought ant
money to the promotion of
plan which if efficiently carrie,
out will result in great benefi
to all. II is plan to sacrific
small present interest to grea
future good.
To give time and energy an
money to the building of one
community may seem like
sacrifice; but it is only tempo
rarv and we'll worth the cost
A bigger, better communit
means better business. bette
wages. better homes, better pee
pie, better living, and increase
opportunities for individual d.
velopment and enjoyment {
every kind. Though some lit
temporary interests are sacr
feed for this one great perm;
nent benefaction, it is worth TIL
price.
Community building might
defined as broad-minded selfish
ness. 1t means: Be selfish fC
your town and neighbor. Tha
is not by any means a base an
shameless platform to stan
upon. 1t is not pure and hoI
altruism, to be sure; but there
some altruism in it nevertheless
1t might be called practic,
altruisln.
Be selfish for your town ar
neighbOr. " Somehow tn;
sounds like an echo of the Col,
