The first duty of law is to keep sound the
society it serves. -
Sanitary Laws, pure food law and laws ue'
termining conditions oflabor which inoiV'uu~'
are powerless to determine for themselves are
intimate parts Of the very business oil Jus'i''
and legal efficiency. -
These are some Of the things we ought 70 90

safeguarding of property and Of individual
right. This is the high enterprise OF the ne"
day: to lift everything that concerns our ms
as a Nation to the light that shines from the
hearth6re Of every mans conscience and Wis
ion of the right. 1t is inconceivahle that we
should do this as partisans; 1t is inconceiVaoie
we should do it in ignorance OF the facts a.
they are or in blind haste.
We Shall Restore, Not Destroy
We shall restore, not destroy. We shall
deal with our economic system as it is ana as
il NAV be modified, not as it might be II we
had a clean sheet of paper to write upon; ana
step by step we shall make it what it should
be, in the spirit Of those who question their
own wisdom and seek counsel and knowledge,
not shallow self-satisfaction or the excitement
of excursions whittier they cannot tell. JUS
tice, and only justice, shall always be our
motto.
The Nation Deeply Stirred
And yet it will be no cool process OF mere
science. The Nation has been deeply stirred,
stirred by a solemn passion, stirred by the
knowledge Of wrong, of ideals lost, OF Govern
ment too often debauched and made an in
strument of evil. The feelings with which
we face this new sge Of right and opportunity
sweep across our heart-strings like some all
out Of Gods own presence, where justice anc
mercy are reconciled and the judge and the
brother are one.
We know our task to be no mere task oi
p~olitics hut a task which shall search u
through and through, whether we be able t
understand our time and the need OF GU
people, whether we be indeed their spokesmer
and interpreters, whether we have the pur'
heart to comprehend and the rectihed will Il
choose our high course Of action.
81 Will Not Fail Them
This is not a day of triumph; it is day o
dedication. Here muster, not the forces o
party, but the forces Of humanity. Men
hearts wait upon us; mems lives hang in tn
balance: mems hopes call upon US to say wha
we will do. Who shall live up to the grea
trust! Who dares fail to try?
l summon all honest men. all patriotic, al
forward-looking men, to my side. God help
ing me, I will not fail them, if they will bu
