dence that there is nothing of tho
Kind. can see by your numbers
and by your whole manner that YOU
arc as deeply interested in this great
subject as 1 am. I have come out
here with the utmost confidence to
appeal to you to realize that the nation
stands in a very critical danger of be-
Ing involved, In spite Of it's desire to
Keep out. in this great European
struggle and 1 have come in the con-
fdence that you will sustain the gov
ernment which you have created in
preparing itself for the adequate de-
fense Of all the things that we hold
dear in this country"
