THE COLONEL'S DRIVE FOR
THE SPO TLIGHT.
Singular Question rs 10 His Courage
in the Matter Of Utterance.

To THE EDITOR OF The SUN-Sir: The
still adhering and the ex-admirers OF the
one time hero and rough "rider-of-our-
country must be specializing upon the
quality OF the ~''innards' OF the man to-
day. The speech delivered at Platts-
burg had been prepared but though
many interpretations were made. IT was
not then. while addressing Americana
whose very acts that day proved their
deep hearted patriotism, but later and
before leaving the site Of his address
that the gallant ex~warrlor gave his
feelings vent in n statement to the
press. 1t is described as a dictated
statement which might lead ono to be-
lieve hat II was made. II not by n
paci1st, at least by one pacifted. Alas +.
It reads rather like a hysterical out
burst by a man crazed with grief be-
cause his last great piece of political
good luck came to him In 1904 Instead
of In 1912.
This statement in effect insists that
those Americans who, like the dictator.
believe that the country should now
be engaged in war with Germany. should
see to II hat our President tbecause he
has not plunged us into war and has
therefore "either not acted at all or has
acted wrongly'') ''be made to feel that
the citizens whom he has been elected
10 serve OcnndTu mat ne De ltNdl W tit
honor and TO the interests OF the land"
Did the Colonel believe that this stun
was not a At and proper thing TO utter
before those men at Plattsburg? n
II II was not a proper thing to express
orally. was II the act OF a really patriotic
citizen OF wide influence to publish 1t
otherwise?
No one realizes better than the man
who carefully selected from his new
stock OF firebrand elocution Gar less to
be desired than action based on sober
judgment) Just what he would speak
that day and what later give out In
print. that not for half a century has
the time and condition so imperatively
demanded the exercise by every red
blooded. yes. and even hot blooded
American OF his duty to faithfully and
~outspokenly support those whose minds
are guiding and must guide the coun-
try's course in the immediate future.
Did the greatest cX-president his
country has ever had realize also that
his auditors AT Plattsburg were not the
type OF men who would permit him by
word OF mouth In their presence TO vio-
late that duty OF his as an American,
he who had been so honored ny Ameri.
cans?
Did the hero OF San Juan fear to ex-
press. face to face with those men at
Plattsburg. all he felt and wished 20

system later"
Did he fear lest. instead of the cher
ished cheers. he meet with Kisses and
groans. catcalls and jeers, expressing

velt's Assistance.

Perhaps the most positive and per
sistently unqualified statement that
Colonel THEODORE ROOSEVELT ever
made and reiterated over and over
again is that the United States has
by treaty guaranteed the inviolability
Of Belgian territory and Is therefore
now in the shameful position Of a
repudiator of contract engagements
through the failure of the Wilson Adj
mlnistration TO intervene 10 prevent
the German invasion, or, II too late
for that, to Join in the attempt to
drive the invaders out This asser-
ton Is the peg upon which hangs at
present the Colonel's entire political
stock in trade. HIS denunciation Of
the President for failing to do our
bounden duty" to Belgium Is sup
ported only by a vague reference to
something which he believes is speci-
fed in n of the conventions adopted
Mt The Hague. When asked to point
out the particular section or article
or even convention %warranting his in
vect1ve the Colonel's energy gyrates
in another direction.
Perhaps wen more surprising than
Colonel R~oosEyELT's own default in
the matter Of exact citation Is the
failure of any of his multitudinOus
admirers 10 hasten to his assistance
with chapter and verse. The nearest
approach TO first aid for Colonel
ROOSEVELT, singularly enough, comes
from Mr.. MAURICE LION, a juriscon-
suit whose avowed partisanship and
natural bias in matters concerning
the European combat is In good meas
IRE balanced by his individual quail
ties of perception and candor. Mr..
LION writes to US as follows:
MAY there not, on consideration, be n
goo deal to be said in support OF the
position taken by Mr.. ROOSEVELT? The
treaty in question Is the fifth convention
of The Hague. adopted In 1907, the first
two articles OF which are these:
81. The territory OF neutral Powers
Is inviolable.'
