Jew YORK, February 26-Dr
John O. Hibben, president of
Princeton University and one
Of the foremost educators of the
United States, declared before huge
crowd last night that III is the solemn
duty Of the United States to enter the
war against Germany as speedily as
possiblel' The church In which Doc.
tor Hibben was speaking was thronged
with the Princeton alumni of this city
and from surrounding towns, for the
address had been widely advertised.
Criticised American People
y Doctor Hibben in the course of his
remarks criticised the people Of the
United states for what he describes
as their utter lack 'tof an international
conscience, " as exemplihed by our
failure to join the Allies at the very
outbreak of the war in Europe, when,
so he declared, the Entente nations
had entered the war for the very prin-
ciples upon which the founders of this
country builded the Constitution of
the United States. !a<t.&
"Even now Il is the solemn obliga-
ton and duty of the people of the
United States and of the government
which we have placed over, to enter
this war in defense of the principles
of human liberty, of that democracy
which the people who made this coun.
try held dearcr than their lives or
their homes. Nit o.
Utterly Unprepared For War @,"
Ak He then spoke of 'the lack Of pre-.
paredness which has marked the his
tory of this nation from the first.
"We stand now," he said, "in
readiness to go into a conflict with
Germany, the nation which is perhaps
best Of all nations prepared for war.
How ludicrous, when we are unpre.
pared to fight with any nation in all
the world, unless perhaps il be China.
We might indeed make fair showing
should we 60 to war with China.
"In spite of all this, which every
man among US knows to be true, we
are contemplating war with Ger
many with bravery.
Why We Are Brave ~.- ...t..
"Why are we brayeR Let us be
frank with ourselves. We are brave
so very brave-because we realize that
the great British feet, which has held
the Germans off for, more than two
years from Britain can hold the Ger
mans off from the coast of the United
States. That is why we are so brave.
The British fleet stands between Ger
many and the United States. Hence
our valor"
Turning TO the war in Europe, Doctor
liihhen denied that he or any one else
in this country wished to see Germany
crushed.
German Plan a Failure
81 have no wish to see that Empire
crushed" he, continued, "but for all
that we must realize that for forty
years she has been planning this war,
working, striving ever with this end
in view. Her oVertOwering and over.
towering ambition has over leaped it.
selt ana the forty years of effort have
ended in tie bitterest failure of
history. - d., ,-...
