WHY and FOR WHAT
AMERICA IS AT WAR

Editors Note-The address below
was delivered by Mr.. Dan j. Marley
of Portland, Oregon, at the Buyers
Week Banquet" at Portland on Au-
gust 10, 1917. This statement OF
facts concerning the war is one OF
the clearest, most forceful and truth
full that has yet come to our notice.
We consider that it ranks with other
able presentations as to why we are
fighting German autocracy and mill
tarism, by the foremost men OF Amer
lea and elsewhere. Although 1t is
quite lengthy, We are glad OF the OPP
portunity of reproducing it in full
herewith:
Many and insidious are the inf1u-
ences and agencies which Americas
enemies have adopted or are taking
advantage Of to create dissension and
dissatisfaction amongst her people
and hamper and harass those in
whose keeping are her welfare and
destiny in this most trying period Of
her history. It is, therefore, fitting
and proper that gatherings of patri-
otto Americans should, from time to
time, be reminded of "Why and for
What America Is at War;" and renew
their faith in democracy, and re-
pledge their loyalty to their flag, and
resolve again that government Of the
people and for the people and by the
people shall not perish from this
earth.
Our country is at war with the
most powerful and most implacable
and most ruthless enemy that ever
confronted foemen fighting for right.
At war because the most patient and
peace-loving executive who ever pre-
sided over the destinies of this Re-
public could not avoid war without
loss of national honor and national
self-respect. At war because Prus-
sianized Germany, after half CEN
fury of preparation and propaganda
and of spying and intrigue, started
out to conquer and rule the world.
At war because the edifice of democ-
racy was attacked and tottering and
the spirits of our forefathers sum-
moned US to it's defense. At war be-
cause a second Alexander, greater
despot than Napoleon of any of the
Caesars, was trying to make the
world submit to the hellish doctrine
that might is right. At war because
humanity was being outraged and
civilization was being slaughtered
and no courageous lover of either
could stand idly by and refuse to lend
a helping hand. At war because all
that Americans hold dear and all that
makes life sweet to the sons of free
men was threatened by an avalanche
of armored autocracy.
The handful of brave and wise men
who signed the Declaration Of Inde-
pendence did something more by that
act than launch q new nation. They
gave real life to new political creed.
The underlying principles of that
creed-that all men are created equal
and that the people are the proper
source of political power-had be-
fore been in the thoughts and on the
! tongues Of men; but they had not
previously found concrete expression
and definite form under government
tai sanction.
! The new nation expanded and grew
beyond the brightest dreams OF its
founders. Its prosperity and success
became an inspiration and object les
son to lovers Of mankind everywhere.
And. as 1t grew and prospered, the
new political creed 1t had espoused
spread to other lands and was adopt
