US. SHOULD FIGHT
 ONLY FOR MANKIND. PRESIDENT ASSERTS
Tells D. A.. Congress America Will Forgotten
  Humanty-Part of Nations Purpose to Serve Resto of World. He

Washington, April 18-''Amer1ca will have forgotten her traditions whenever upon any occasion she fights merely for herself under such circumstanc sas will show that she has forgotten to fight for all man kind. And the only excuse that Amer ica can ever have for the assertion of her physical force is that she as serts it in behalf of the interests of humanity.''
 President wilson uttered these words in Continental Hall yesterday in an address welcoming the Daugh- ters of the American Revo1ution on, gathered here for their annual con greSs.
 AppIauded by Women
 The President was enthusiastically applauded.f When he was introduced by Mrs. William Cumming Story, President-Ge of the organiza- tion,. the audience stood and cheer ed, and many of Ehe women waved American flags. The Presidents ad- dress follows:
 "I have told you upon more than one occasion of the sentiments which are chiefly stirred in me by looking upon d company like this. I was thinking today that if this organiza- ton had been formed in the very early years of our republic it would have been looked upon with a good deal of disfavor, because you would then have been suspected Of setting up some sort of aristocratic class. It would have been thought that you were acting in a spirit contrary to the democratic spirit professed by the founders of the Republic itself.
 You will remember that that sort of criticism was stirred by the foun- dalton of the Society, of the Cincin- natl. It was supposed that they we're setting up an organization, which, be- cause it's membership was handed on by primo -geniture, was an organiza- ton entirely contrary to the spirit of American institutions. But d very i'm teresting thing has happened. The proportion of those who can derive their lineage from officers who took part in the American Revolution is a constantly decreasing proportion.
 You cannot be suspected of trying to build up an organization which will control the country. On the contrary, the spirit in which you have formed this organization was from the first manifest It was not a spirit of caste or of prfvilege,f but spfrfts of .rever- encef or a great tradition. And, for my part, I believe that the chief ser vice of 8. great organization, like this is to keep a certain beautiful senti- rnent warm and vital in the consci- ousness of the American people.
 Importance of Tradition
 Tradition is a handsome thing in proportion as we live up to it. If we fall away from tIle tradition of the fathers, we have dtshonored them If we forget the tradition of the fathers, we have changed our character: we

have lost an old impulse; we have become unconscious of the principles in which the life of the nation itself is rooted and grounded.
 Therefore, this orga anization un- dertook to keep those who fell under it's influence constantly reminded of the circumstances of the birth of this Nation and of the significance of the birth of this Nation. That signffi- cance' was a very singular signifi- canoe. No other nation was ever born into the world with the pur- pose of serving the, rest of the world just as much as/it served itself.
 t''The purpose of this nation was in 0he sense to afford an asylum to men of all classes and kinds who desired administration of a self-governed mnonwealthI It was founded in order that men of every sort should have proof given that a common wealth of that sort was practicable not only, but would win it's standing of distinction and power among the nations of the world.
 One Excuse for Force
 And America, will have forgotten her traditions whenever upon any oc- casion she fights merely for herself when such circumstances as will show that she has forgotten to fight for all mankind. And the only excuse that ,Amer1ca can ever nave TOT the aSSer- ton of her physical force is that she asserts it in behalf of the interests of humanity.
 What a splendid thing it is to have so singular a tradition-at tra- dition of unse1fishness When Amer ica ceases to be unse1fish, she will cease to be America. When she for gets the traditions or devotion to human rights in general which gave spirit and impulse to her founders, she will have lost her title deeds to her own nationality.
 ttSo9 it is to my mind a very happy circumstance that here in the capital Eiof the Nation, in this home of your own building, you should meet every year in order to keep bright the fires that have always burned upon lthis altar of devotion to human rights, that is the title of this society to dis tfnction and to immortality, and therefore I feel that T ann greeting you as if come to a renewal of all the pledges of our national life when I greet and welcome you, as so warmly do. to this. our common capital
