President Noyes' Speech.


This toast was offered by President
Noyes after he had made the following
speech:
In the past II has been necessary
on like occasions for me to explain the
constraint the Associated Press was
under to observe the strictest neutral
ity on all controversial points, due TO
the varied and manifold opinions of its
members.
To-day, thank God. this Is not only
not necessary. but the contrary is true,
for no trace of neutrality is ccursing in
our veins, but red blood. and red blood
alone.
To-day neutrality has been cast aside,
and we in common with all true Amer
leans. are standing with our cousins
to the north and those across the sea,
who. under many flags. are battling
that government of the people. by the
people. for the people. shall not perish
from the earth.
Never have the splendid ideals. not
alone of our country but Of the world
of democracy, been more greatly stated
than on night but few weeks past,
in the Capitol building at Washington.
Calmly. deliberately. wisely. cur
chosen leader has assembled behind
him a united nation, anxious to do IT,
full part in this terrible ordeal by
battle, taking It's place side by side
with those others whose blood ana
treasure have been so freely spent;
highly resolved that their dead shall
not have died in vain.
In every past great national crisis
that we have met God has raised up a
leader truly great who has typifed
America. her hopes and her ideals. In
this day of national peril He has not
failed us.

dent Of the United States. Woodrow
