And yet, just as soon as that act

why was it right the day after it

You know the Declaration of In
dependence has in one sence lost its
significance. Nobody believed we
could be independent when that
document was written. Now, no
body would dare to doubt we are
independent. AS a declaration Of
independece it is a mere historic
document. The independence is a
fact so stupendous that it can be
measured only by the size, energy,
ability, wealth and power Of one of
the greatest nations Of the world.
But it is one thing to be indepen-
dent and it is another thing to know
what to do with your independence.
1t is one thing to come to your ma
jority and another thing to know
what you are going to do with your
life and your energies.
One Of the most serious ques-
tions for sober minded men to adj
dress themselves to in these United
States is what are we going to do
with the influence and power of
this great nation? Are we going
to play the old role Of using that
power for our own aggrandizement
and material benefit? You know

what that means. That means we
shall use it to make the people Of
other nations suffer in the way in
which we said it was intolerable
to suffer when we uttered the de-
claration of independence.
