other states Of being just mentioned
are not always or even often solely
within ones own control It may
truthfnl1y be said that eternal vigil
! lance is the price which must be paid
| in order to obtain the desirable things
of life and to defend them.
Tn the early history Of our nation
| there was a natural, almost inevitable,
adherence of military force, because
it connoted military despotism. Most,
II not all, of the early settlers in this
country came from nations where a
few powerful persons tyrannically Inn
posed their will upon the people by
means of military power. OF course all
this has long since passed into his
tory. No reasonable person in THIS
country today has the slightest shadow
Of fear of military despotism, nor OF
any interference whatever by military
force in the conduct OF civil affairs.
TT also seems proper. in passing, to
refer to the frame of mind Of those
who use the word 'miIitarism' as the
embodiment of the doctrine of brute
force and loosely apply 1t to any or
ganized preparation of military force,
and therefore deprecate any adequate
military preparation because 1t is
step in the direction of the condemned
'militarisn.' Every nation must have
adequate force to protect itself from
domestic Instruction, to enforce its
laws, and to repel invasions: that is,
every nation that has similar char
acteristtcs to those OF a seh-respect-
ing man. If It prepares and main
tains more military force than is
necessary for the purposes just named,
when it is subject to the conviction,
81 %I,A int af ho TzzRr16 nf
having embraced 'militarism,' unless
it intends aggression for a cause which
the public opinion Of the world con-
ceives to be a righteous one. To the
extent, however that it confines its
military preparedness to the purposes
first mentioned, there is neither war
rant nor justification in characterizing
such action as 'militarism.'
Equally useless, in my view, is
the discussion frequently INDUCED in
as to whether military preparation
tends or does not tend to avoid war.
1 term such discussion useless be-
cause, SO far as we are concerned,
whatever conclusion might be reached
thereon would not affect our duty.
Since it is not in mind to suggest
any military preparation Of the Ma
TONS resources beyond that absolutely
essential uhQeT eXlSLlnS COh04tAOIISs the
question OF whatever more extensive
for the purpose OF avoid |
ing war would have that effect or not |
is futile. Unless and until the con- |
gress of the United States, representing |
the people of the country, places on |
record the conclusion of the people to |
the contrary. my duty is, I think, en-
tire1y clear; and that duty is to set |
forth the facts and the necessities |
growing out Of the facts, and sugges- |
tons as to the ways and means of full |
filing such necessities.
What then. does this Nation need |
in the way Of military preparedness? |
OF course, am not attempting to lay |
down a counsel of Professionalism is, |
